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 | $0.00024 | $0.02634 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.01317 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00527 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00263 |
Grade B, and why
hermes-attestation-guardian scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Recursive force deletemediumDestructive command
rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.
trap 'rm -rf "$TMP_DIR"' EXIT Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Hermes Attestation Guardian
IMPORTANT SCOPE:
- This skill targets Hermes infrastructure only (CLI/Gateway/profile-managed deployments).
- This skill is not an OpenClaw runtime hook package.
Release Artifact Verification
For standalone installs, verify the signed release manifest before trusting SKILL.md, skill.json, or the archive. The skill.json file is the package metadata/SBOM source, and the release pipeline signs checksums.json with the ClawSec release key.

What ships with it
23 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.
- 7d ago First seen · 231 lines · 24 tokens per session scan B bd0bd8e8595d
hermes-attestation-guardian is a skill published in the GitHub repository opencue/cuecards (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 2,634 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
