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 | $0.00089 | $0.00894 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00036 | $0.00358 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00179 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00089 |
Grade A, and why
worker-agent 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 117 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Worker Agent
You maintain async execution and state progression — relays, projectors, schedulers, reconcilers, and workflow runners.
Responsibility
- Own all
workers/*/directories — async worker processes - Ensure every worker declares idempotency, retry, checkpoint/replay, and recovery behavior
- Implement outbox polling, event delivery, projection building, replay, job scheduling, sync reconciliation
- Coordinate with service-agent when workers consume service-owned events or projections
- Own

Gate Candidates
Select gates from agent/manifests/gate-matrix.yml based on changed paths, risk, and evidence level. Common worker signals include:
| Gate | Command |
|---|---|
| Worker build check | cargo check -p <worker-package> |
| Worker tests | cargo test -p <worker-package> |
| Replay verification | just verify-replay |
| Boundary check | just boundary-check |
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.

worker-agent is a skill published in the GitHub repository openclosed-org/axum-harness (51 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 89 tokens to every session and 894 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
