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 | $0.00029 | $0.00272 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00136 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00054 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00027 |
Grade A, and why
sibyl-novelty-checker 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 13d 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
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.

sibyl-novelty-checker is a skill published in the GitHub repository Sibyl-Research-Team/AutoResearch-SibylSystem (277 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 272 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
integrity-auditor
Use when the user wants a paper audited for integrity issues — image misuse, numerical anomalies, logical gaps — and needs a reviewable evidence report. Works on external papers (PDF / DOI / arXiv) and on outputs from a local paper-writer run. Single-stage skill.
mindmap-render
Generate beautiful, high-resolution mindmaps from Markdown unordered lists. Outputs interactive HTML, HD PNG, and PDF with colorful branch themes.
experiment-suite
Use when the user has a research question and needs a complete experiment package — design document, runnable code, results (measured or simulated with honest provenance), publication-grade figures, structured report. Single-stage, no Python runtime.
paper-writer
Use when the user wants a complete, publication-grade research paper on a specific topic — produces 200+ real citations, 4–8 publication-grade figures, and 7 sections of substantive prose compiled to PDF in one pass. No skeleton stage.
ai4s-agent
Use when the user wants an end-to-end AI4S research pipeline — broad direction or specific topic in, full research package out (exploration + literature survey + experiment + paper). Meta-skill that chains the four downstream skills in order. Pure markdown, no Python runtime.
literature-survey
Use when the user wants a comprehensive literature survey on a specific research topic. Outputs a complete PDF survey (6–20 pages, 60+ real citations, 100+ recommended) with LaTeX source, topic-specific publication figures, and a classified literature table. Single-stage, no Python runtime.
