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 | $0.00034 | $0.00365 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00182 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00073 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
worker-research-frontier 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 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.
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.
What it actually says
Worker Research Frontier
Candidate Frontiers
- Dynamic tool router: expose fewer tools to cheap models.
- Compound tools: wrap search-read-edit-test into audited primitives.
- Trajectory eval: score the path, not just the final result.
- Semantic gate: detect "checks passed but meaning is wrong".
- Skill distillation: strong sessions create verified runbooks for cheap sessions.
- Context decay meter: track failure rate against prompt and output size.
External Signals
- Zhihu, "Claude Fable 5 系统泄漏?提示词全拆解" (
https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/2048197182205998344): use only as a secondary structural signal. The public summary says the alleged prompt is large, heavily sectioned, and policy/tool oriented; the actionable lesson is to distill durable project doctrine into skills, validators, and gates instead of stuffing one huge prompt into every worker run. - Do not copy alleged leaked system prompt text into this repository. Extract design patterns only after restating them as repo-specific, testable rules.
Falsifiable Result
A frontier idea has a result only when it improves a measured eval set without increasing blocking false positives beyond the chosen threshold.
When Not To Use
Do not use this for immediate production fixes. Use worker-campaign-cheap-reliability.
Verification
- Add an eval fixture or metric before changing defaults.
- Run
npm testand the relevant stats/audit command.
Provenance and maintenance
Label unproven ideas as candidate until measured on this repository.
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-research-frontier is a skill published in the GitHub repository sorryorc/mcp-codex-worker (2 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 365 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
