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 | $0.00038 | $0.02193 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.01097 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00439 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00219 |
Grade A, and why
mtls-configuration 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 11d 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
88% identical to mtls-configuration — 21 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.

mTLS Configuration
Comprehensive guide to implementing mutual TLS for zero-trust service mesh communication.
When to Use This Skill
- Implementing zero-trust networking
- Securing service-to-service communication
- Certificate rotation and management
- Debugging TLS handshake issues
- Compliance requirements (PCI-DSS, HIPAA)
- Multi-cluster secure communication

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.

mtls-configuration is a skill published in the GitHub repository CGSOG-JumpStarts/JumpStart-AutoNav (10 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 2,193 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 88% identical to mtls-configuration, differing in 21 lines, and is treated as a copy.
