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 | $0.00022 | $0.00359 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00179 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00072 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
budget-setup 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.
What it actually says
Budget Setup
First-run orchestration. Follow the budget-analyst discipline: never invent a
number, print each tool's rendered block verbatim, and confirm before any write.
This skill performs no writes of its own — it loads data and hands off.
Step 1 — Load the data (CLI, not a tool)
Data import happens at the command line, not through a tool. For a true first run, tell the user to start with:
budget setup— initializes the database and asks for their name (reports and briefs render with it; skipping this just means unnamed reports).
Then load transactions with one of:
budget import <file>to load a specific statement file (CSV/OFX), orbudget intaketo pull in everything staged for import.
These are CLI commands. Do not try to call them as tools — direct the user to run them, then continue once data is loaded.
Step 2 — Confirm data landed
Call get_month_summary to confirm transactions loaded, then call review_queue
to show what still needs attention. Print each tool's rendered block verbatim and
add a short note on what the user is looking at.
Step 3 — Hand off
Once data is in, point the user to the next skills:
- Run
/budget-categorizeto work the review queue and clean up categories. - Run
/budget-budgetsto set spending limits and expected income.
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.

budget-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository natejswenson/local-budget (0 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 359 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-31.
