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 | $0.00136 | $0.03358 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00054 | $0.01343 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00672 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00336 |
Grade A, and why
dependabot 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 yesterday.
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
95% identical to dependabot — 7 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 457 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Dependabot Configuration & Management
Overview
Dependabot is GitHub's built-in dependency management tool with three core capabilities:
- Dependabot Alerts — Notify when dependencies have known vulnerabilities (CVEs)
- Dependabot Security Updates — Auto-create PRs to fix vulnerable dependencies
- Dependabot Version Updates — Auto-create PRs to keep dependencies current
All configuration lives in a single file: .github/dependabot.yml on the default branch. GitHub does not support multiple dependabot.yml files per repository.
Configuration Workflow
Follow this process when creating or optimizing a dependabot.yml:
Step 1: Detect All Ecosystems
Scan the repository for dependency manifests. Look for:
| Ecosystem | YAML Value | Manifest Files |
|---|---|---|
| npm/pnpm/yarn | npm |
package.json, package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock |
| pip/pipenv/poetry | pip |
requirements.txt, Pipfile, pyproject.toml, setup.py |
| uv | uv |
pyproject.toml, uv.lock |
| Docker | docker |
Dockerfile |
| Docker Compose | docker-compose |
docker-compose.yml |
| GitHub Actions | github-actions |
.github/workflows/*.yml |
| Go modules | gomod |
go.mod |
| Bundler (Ruby) | bundler |
Gemfile |
| Cargo (Rust) | cargo |
Cargo.toml |
| Composer (PHP) | composer |
composer.json |
| NuGet (.NET) | nuget |
*.csproj, packages.config |
| .NET SDK | dotnet-sdk |
global.json |
| Maven (Java) | maven |
pom.xml |
| Gradle (Java) | gradle |
build.gradle |
| Terraform | terraform |
*.tf |
| OpenTofu | opentofu |
*.tf |
| Helm | helm |
Chart.yaml |
| Hex (Elixir) | mix |
mix.exs |
| Swift | swift |
Package.swift |
| Pub (Dart) | pub |
pubspec.yaml |
| Bun | bun |
bun.lockb |
| Dev Containers | devcontainers |
devcontainer.json |
| Git Submodules | gitsubmodule |
.gitmodules |
| Pre-commit | pre-commit |
.pre-commit-config.yaml |
Notes:
- pnpm and yarn both use the
npmecosystem value. - Prefer
uvecosystem value whenuv.lockis present; otherwise usepip.
What ships with it
3 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.

dependabot is a skill published in the GitHub repository docdyhr/simplenote-mcp-server (21 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 136 tokens to every session and 3,358 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 95% identical to dependabot, differing in 7 lines, and is treated as a copy.

github-copilot-upgrader
Use this to update the Github Copilot CLI/SDK.
commit
Commit staged or unstaged changes with an AI-generated commit message that matches the repository's existing commit style. Use when the user asks to 'commit', 'commit changes', 'create a commit', 'save my work', or 'check in code'.
repo-audit
Deep analysis of Git history: identify frequently changed hotspot files, analyze code ownership by contributor, and scan for leaked secrets. Triggered when users ask about Git analysis, code hotspots, who owns what code, secret scanning, security audits of commit history, or optimizing code review assignments.
git-commit
Analyze changes with Git only and auto-generate conventional commit messages with optional emoji; suggests splitting commits when needed, runs local Git hooks by default (use --no-verify to skip).
core-workflow
Detailed development workflow patterns, checklists, and standards. Auto-loads for complex tasks, planning, debugging, or when explicit patterns are needed. Contains session protocols, git conventions, security checklists, review-based validation, and communication standards.
commit-and-track
Commit and push a completed AEGIS change when requested or already authorized as part of the active task. Preserve unrelated work and stage only task files.
