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 | $0.00031 | $0.02478 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00991 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00496 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00248 |
Grade A, and why
building-native-ui 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to building-native-ui — 0 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.

Running the App
CRITICAL: Always try Expo Go first before creating custom builds.
Most Expo apps work in Expo Go without any custom native code. Before running npx expo run:ios or npx expo run:android:
- Start with Expo Go: Run
npx expo startand scan the QR code with Expo Go - Check if features work: Test your app thoroughly in Expo Go
- Only create custom builds when required - see below
When Custom Builds Are Required
You need npx expo run:ios/android or eas build ONLY when using:
- Local Expo modules (custom native code in
modules/) - Apple targets (widgets, app clips, extensions via
@bacons/apple-targets) - Third-party native modules not included in Expo Go
- Custom native configuration that can't be expressed in
app.json
What ships with it
1 file 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.
