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 | $0.00055 | $0.16619 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.08309 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.03324 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.01662 |
Grade A, and why
technical-constitution 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 9d 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.

The Constitution: Technical Preference Universal Principles
⚖️ CRITICAL GOVERNANCE NOTICE
CRITICAL: BEFORE doing ANYTHING else, Read and Comprehend this document COMPLETELY.
MANDATORY COMPLIANCE CHECK:
Before executing your task, you must perform a "Constitution Lookup":
- IDENTIFY the domain of your task (e.g., API, DB, Auth, logging, etc.).
- SEARCH the relevant sections (e.g., grep "API Design").
- REVIEW Critical Constraints table for domain
- VERIFY your plan against the discipline and constraints before proceeding.
1. The Supremacy Clause & Conflict Resolution
When directives conflict or seem impossible to satisfy simultaneously, follow this precedence:
-
Security Principles [Non-Negotiable]
- OWASP Top 10 compliance
- Input validation and sanitization
- Authentication and authorization
- Secrets management
- No information leakage
- Action: Security ALWAYS wins. Refactor other requirements to satisfy security.
-
Testability & Modularity [Structural Law]
- I/O isolation (dependencies mockable in tests)
- Pure business logic (no side effects in core logic)
- Clear module boundaries with contracts
- Action: If code cannot be unit tested without external dependencies, refactor to add abstraction layer.
-
Error Handling Standards [Reliability Law]
- No silent failures
- Correlation IDs required
- JSON envelope format
- Resource cleanup in all paths
- Action: All error paths must be explicit. No exceptions.
-
Language Idioms [Implementation Preference]
- Use native patterns (defer, RAII, context managers)
- Follow community conventions
- Leverage standard library
- Action: Implement above laws idiomatically, don't blindly copy other languages.
-
Performance Optimizations [Measure First]
- Appropriate data structures
- Profile before optimizing
- Caching strategies
- Action: Only optimize with measured bottlenecks. Correctness > speed
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.

technical-constitution is a skill published in the GitHub repository irahardianto/qurio (17 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 16,619 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
