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 | $0.00000 | $0.02998 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.01199 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00600 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00300 |
Grade A, and why
release scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 236 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Cutting a release
RELEASE.md is the procedure; this file is only the driver. It holds the click-through
checklist, what CI already guarantees, and the reasoning behind each step. Read it at step 4
rather than restating it here — a second copy of a checklist drifts from the first, and the
repo has shipped that failure twice already (health.rs vs health.ts, and the two
hand-kept status-letter tables that each claimed to be shared with the other). When this
file and RELEASE.md disagree, RELEASE.md wins and gets fixed in the same commit.
Work top to bottom. Steps 1, 3, 4 and 7 are STOP points — do not pass one without an
answer from the human. Everything between them is mechanical and takes about ten minutes,
which is what the release history shows: every release: commit since 0.13.x lands within
two minutes of its merge commit.

mainis usually far behind — it is only touched at release time. Never assume it.
1. STOP — which PRs go in
An open PR is not a release candidate. Never merge the list because it is the list: it
routinely holds work nobody is shipping today, and two entries are near-certain traps —
the branch the human is standing on (git branch --show-current, their own work in
flight) and any PR that is itself part of this release effort. At 0.30.0 there were six
open and two were exactly those.
Show the list and ask which ones go in. Ask even when the answer looks obvious, and ask again if the human says "all" while a draft or their own current branch is in it.
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.

release is a skill published in the GitHub repository respeak-io/episko (19 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,998 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-24.
