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 | $0.00014 | $0.01009 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00404 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00202 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00101 |
Grade A, and why
today 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 — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
End-of-day summary: auto-detect commits across repos, merge with manual entries, generate daily log, reflect.
WAVE 0: Gather Data (ALL PARALLEL, one message)
| # | Tool | Call | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bash | Scan repos under ~/Programming for today's commits via git log --oneline --since="today" per repo |
Collect commits |
| 2 | Read | 02_Journal/daily/{TODAY}.md |
Check if log exists (preserve Ship Log entries) |
| 3 | Read | 02_Journal/daily/{YESTERDAY}.md |
Extract uncompleted - [ ] tasks for carry-over |
| 4 | Read | 02_Journal/weekly/week-{YEAR}-W{WEEK_NUM}.md |
Weekly goal + MITs |
Compute dates mentally (you know today's date from system context).
WAVE 1: Show + Ask
- Display auto-detected data summary (repos, commits)
- Show carried-over tasks from yesterday
- Ask: "What else did you do today? (meetings, research, calls, ideas, decisions, learnings)"
- If user says nothing/skip, proceed with auto-detected data only
WAVE 2: Generate Log
Create or UPDATE 02_Journal/daily/{TODAY}.md.

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.
