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 | $0.00041 | $0.00404 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00202 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00081 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
standards-sync 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 3d 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

standards-sync is a skill published in the GitHub repository davidvornholt/mail-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 2d ago), with no licence file. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 404 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
safe-extraction
Apply when extracting code from a large monolith file into submodules. Covers barrel re-exports, internals DI seam proxy patterns, CI invariant allowlist updates, and cross-file test verification. Prevents CI failures, broken imports, and test regressions from code extraction.
git-revert-safety
Apply when reverting commits, undoing merges, or recovering from branch contamination. Covers collateral damage verification (manifest, package.json, CHANGELOG, lockfiles), cherry-pick vs revert decision matrix, partial-revert detection, merge-parent handling, and post-revert CI verification. Prevents the most common…
commit-pr
Mandatory Codex/Copilot publication adapter for opencode-swarm. Use for every GitHub issue assignment that results in code changes, commits, pushes, draft PRs, PR body edits, PR readying, release notes, or CI closeout. Must be loaded before git push, gh pr create, gh pr edit, or gh pr ready. Routes to the single…
fork-pr-operations
Operational patterns for fork PRs (head repo differs from base repo). Covers GitHub workflow approval after push, force-push protocol, remote naming conventions, stale CI verification, and bot review multi-round awareness. Load when working with fork PRs, cross-repo contributions, or workflow approval issues.
parallel-work-check
Apply before starting work on an existing branch. Checks for parallel work by other agents or developers that may supersede or conflict with your planned changes. Prevents wasted effort on stale branches.
merge-queue-readiness
Pre-queue merge-group CI simulation. Triggered before adding a PR to a GitHub merge queue. Prevents merge-queue kick-outs from integration test failures.
