Trellis is an engineering framework that stores project specifications, tasks, and working memory in a repository so coding agents can follow consistent development practices across sessions. Teams use it to organize AI-assisted planning, implementation, review, and validation across multiple coding platforms. The catalogue entries provide Trellis commands, agents, hooks, skills, instructions, and settings.

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 | $0.00032 | $0.01129 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00452 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00226 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00113 |
Grade A, and why
trellis-channel 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.
The source is not reproduced here
Licensed AGPL-3.0
The repository is licensed AGPL-3.0, which this catalogue does not treat as permission to reproduce the file. Read it at the source.
What ships with it
5 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.

trellis-channel is a skill published in the GitHub repository mindfold-ai/Trellis (15,098 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed AGPL-3.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 1,129 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
