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 | $0.00049 | $0.01368 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00684 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00274 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00137 |
Grade A, and why
midas-init 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 2d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
midas-init — install / setup / update tip
Guard + state:
<paths.engine>/templates/skill-state-ritual.md(+AGENTS.md§ Safety / Path resolution). Surface:primary— single human entry for onboarding. SoT for install shape:node <paths.scripts>/install-diagnose.mjswhen that file exists (ornpx github:okuzpe/midas-harness --diagnose). Do not re-implement detection in the model.
One slash: detect where the project is, then tip the install CLI, run one-time setup, or tip a pinned update.
Does / Does not
| Does | Does not |
|---|---|
| Run diagnose and branch on status | Invent a parallel install/update plan |
Run adaptive intake when setup_pending |
Run intake when not installed (no engine on disk) |
Tip exact CLI for install or update |
Run npx update without the human typing it |
Honor --monorepo / --dry-run on intake path |
Replace /midas-reconcile (read-only “which command?”) |
Honor track: lite per <paths.engine>/pipeline/lite.md (Phase D Ask) |
Skip {product}/business-plan.md on lite — write a thin stub; {product}/market.md is the optional skip |
Procedure
0. Diagnose (always)
# if <paths.scripts>/install-diagnose.mjs exists:
node <paths.scripts>/install-diagnose.mjs
# else:
npx github:okuzpe/midas-harness --diagnose
Statuses: not_installed | unsupported_v1 | setup_pending | version_behind | nested_or_wrong_cwd | partial_migrate | installer_incomplete | ready
1. Branch (exact)
| Status | Action |
|---|---|
not_installed |
Print diagnose nextCli (install, never update). Say: Install first, then re-run /midas-init. STOP — do not start intake. |
setup_pending |
Continue to § Intake below (init-adaptive A–F). Forward --monorepo / --dry-run. |
version_behind |
Print diagnose nextCli (pinned update). Optionally mention dry-run. Allowed even when setup_complete: true. Do not invent a copy plan. STOP after the tip. |
unsupported_v1 |
Print diagnose nextCli (pin [email protected], migrate, then upgrade to 3.x). STOP. Do not run 3.x update — it writes nothing. |
partial_migrate |
Print diagnose nextCli (rollback if a journal exists) and the recover+update detail. STOP. Do not start intake or a fresh install unless the human intends to discard leftover .harness/product. |
installer_incomplete |
Print diagnose nextCli (update --resume) and the --rollback detail. STOP. Do not start intake or a new update until that run is cleared. |
nested_or_wrong_cwd |
Print detail; ask human to cd to project root; STOP. |
ready |
Onboarding complete — 👉 Run /midas-status. If args include --monorepo, run Phase F only (see init-adaptive); do not flip setup_complete. Otherwise STOP. |
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.

midas-init is a skill published in the GitHub repository okuzpe/midas-harness (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 1,368 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
