Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00033 | $0.00426 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00213 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
dependency-cve-sweep scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
This is a copy
94% identical to dependency-cve-sweep — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
What it actually says
Dependency & CVE Sweep
Follow AGENTS.md first. Consolidate a repo's open Dependabot PRs into one clean PR rather than merging many.
Workflow
- Bump Python deps with
uv lock --upgrade-package <name>(targeted) oruv lock --upgrade(full); keepuv.lockcommitted and--frozenin the build. - SHA-pin GitHub Actions (
uses: owner/action@<40-char-sha> # vX.Y.Z), never floating tags. - Fix CodeQL findings at the cause; for the common
py/incomplete-url-substring-sanitizationtest-assertion false positive, switch to exact-match assertions. - Keep the Trivy gate in the ratified 2-step form (
severity: CRITICAL,HIGH+ignore-unfixed: true+exit-code: "1") and retain the SBOM (../genefoundry-router/docs/CONTAINER-HARDENING-STANDARD-v1.md). - Gate on
make ci-local; patch-bump the app version; squash-merge only on green.
Gotcha (FastMCP bumps)
When bumping FastMCP, verify validation-error wrapping: some 3.4.x releases re-raise argument-validation errors as fastmcp.exceptions.ValidationError, so a test asserting on a Pydantic ValidationError must walk __cause__. A version/catalog guard test may also need regenerating.
Common mistakes
- Merging Dependabot PRs one-by-one instead of one consolidated PR.
- Floating action tags instead of SHA pins.
- Flipping Trivy
exit-code: "1"withoutignore-unfixed: true— gates on unfixable base-image CVEs → self-inflicted outage.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

dependency-cve-sweep is a skill published in the GitHub repository berntpopp/hpo-link (1 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 426 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 94% identical to dependency-cve-sweep, differing in 2 lines, and is treated as a copy.
