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 | $0.00016 | $0.00433 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00173 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00087 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
basic-program 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.

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.

basic-program is a skill published in the GitHub repository chrisgleissner/c64bridge (41 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed GPL-2.0. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 433 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.

Covers the two boot mechanisms (CBM80 vs the $FFFC reset vector), the memory modes, cart-native code in ROM, the EasyFlash banking discipline from…
disk-io-programming
Use when a Commodore 64 program has to touch a disk while it runs — loading levels, music or graphics on demand, saving a high-score file, or streaming a data file byte by byte. Covers the KERNAL LOAD/SAVE and channel calls, device and secondary-address conventions, reading the DOS error channel, and the…
6502-debugging
Use when a C64 program misbehaves at runtime — crashes, corruption, wrong values, dead input, visual glitches — and you need a procedure, not a guess. Symptom-indexed playbook of runtime debugging procedures using c64-tools.
