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 | $0.00105 | $0.01133 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00042 | $0.00453 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00227 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00113 |
Grade A, and why
working-an-issue 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 2mo 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Working an issue
Orchestrates the issue → green-PR lifecycle in this repo.
This skill owns the order of operations and the human checkpoints; every rule lives in AGENTS.md (auto-loaded each session), with named helper skills supplying the mechanism where a step needs one.
Scope & dependencies. Harness-neutral, but not capability-free.
Run this skill only in an agent session that has loaded this repo's AGENTS.md, can pause at the maintainer checkpoints, can operate Git/GitHub, and can invoke a separate Codex process or integration that preserves the readiness, redaction, spend, and verify safeguards of collaborating-with-codex.
Preferred helper in Claude Code: collaborating-with-codex (bundled with this plugin).
Optional review-disposition helper: receiving-code-review (an external Superpowers plugin).
When a helper skill is absent, use the fallback its phase names; AGENTS.md stays authoritative for every rule.
How to read a phase: each phase names an action and cites the AGENTS.md § section that owns the rule (and, where a step needs one, a helper skill as the mechanism).
Open the cited section and follow it — this file deliberately does not restate the rule, so acting on a phase line alone will miss it.
Before you start: verification honesty
Run every check a phase prescribes — never predict its result.
Local inspection (git show, the working tree) proves neither a push nor a merge — it only shows a local object.
Before claiming something is pushed, compare the remote ref (git rev-parse origin/<branch> or git ls-remote origin <branch>); before claiming it is merged, query the PR or default branch (gh pr view <n> --json state,mergedAt, or confirm origin/main contains the commit).
Phases
Work them in order. ▸ marks a phase that pauses for the maintainer.
- Select & claim ▸ — Pick the most important open, unassigned issue, then run the claim protocol.
Rules:
AGENTS.md§ Git / PRs (claiming) and § Agent identity (why a bot can't self-assign). Checkpoint: confirm the issue choice with the maintainer before claiming.
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.

working-an-issue is a skill published in the GitHub repository briandconnelly/codex-in-claude (3 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 105 tokens to every session and 1,133 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
