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 | $0.00030 | $0.00234 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00117 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00047 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00023 |
Grade A, and why
worker-run-and-operate 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 8d 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 Run And Operate
Operating Rules
- Use
startfor implementation loops andwaitorgetfor compact status. - Prefer
include_diff:falseunless patch review needs the diff. - Use
get_artifact_slicefor large logs and diffs. - Use
shellwithdigest:truefor tests and noisy commands. - Do not poll aggressively; use longer waits and backoff.
Reliability Tiers
standard: default, advisory evidence.strict: expects checks and scoped patch.critical: expects checks, scoped patch, semantic gate, escalate model, and worktree isolation.
When Not To Use
Do not use this to decide architecture. Use worker-architecture-contract.
Verification
npm run smokenpm run codex:audit -- --since-minutes=60
Provenance and maintenance
Keep this aligned with src/server.ts tool descriptions.
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-run-and-operate is a skill published in the GitHub repository sorryorc/mcp-codex-worker (2 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 234 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.
