What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00012 | $0.00325 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00130 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00065 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00032 |
Grade A, and why
release scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
Create a PR with branch name release/v$ARGUMENTS containing only these changes:
- Update version in
pyproject.tomlandsrc/dippy/__init__.py - Run
uv sync -Uto update dependencies - Run
/verify-countsand update any STALE or FAIL claims
No other changes—no refactors, no fixes, no documentation updates.
Changelog
Generate release notes from commits since the last tag:
git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline
Focus on what matters to users:
- New features and capabilities
- Breaking changes or behavior changes
- Group all bug fixes as "Various bug fixes" (don't itemize)
- If Parable was updated, just say "Bump Parable version"
- Omit internal refactors, test changes, and CI updates
Put the changelog in the PR body. The workflow extracts it for the GitHub release.
Run just check before pushing. PR title: Release v$ARGUMENTS
After merge
Tag, push, and clean up:
git checkout main && git pull && git tag v$ARGUMENTS && git push --tags && git push origin --delete release/v$ARGUMENTS
The tag triggers a workflow that creates the GitHub release and updates the Homebrew tap.
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.

release is a skill published in the GitHub repository ldayton/Dippy (243 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 325 once invoked, about $0.0000 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.
