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 | $0.00110 | $0.00163 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00055 | $0.00081 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00033 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00016 |
Grade A, and why
ingest 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
Codex adapter
Read .claude/skills/ingest/SKILL.md completely and follow it as the canonical
ingest workflow. Its contract applies unchanged to Codex.
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.

ingest is a skill published in the GitHub repository sturlese/hippocampus (28 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 110 tokens to every session and 163 once invoked, about $0.0006 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
second-brain-ingest
Process raw source documents into wiki pages. Use when the user adds files to raw/ and wants them ingested, says "process this source", "ingest this article", "I added something to raw/", or wants to incorporate new material into their knowledge base.
youtube-fetcher
Retrieve YouTube transcripts and subtitles, summarize or analyze what was said, or save an Obsidian-ready Markdown knowledge-base note with captions, creator metadata, chapters, language, and source provenance. Use for a YouTube URL or video ID when the request needs spoken content or an archival note. A bare YouTube…
link-memory
Use after important user-approved decisions, when durable context should be proposed or reviewed, and for explicit Link memory lifecycle work: remember, recall, review, update, archive, restore, forget, or explain local memories through the CLI without requiring MCP.
link-retrieve
Use before answering work that may depend on user memory, project history, source-backed notes, or prior decisions; retrieve compact Link context through the CLI without loading the whole wiki or requiring MCP.
link-health
Use at the start of Link work when readiness is unclear, after installs or upgrades, and before repairs; verify health, inspect interrupted writes, back up, and repair generated indexes without MCP.
link-ingest
Use when raw files are present, source pages look stale, or a user asks to ingest notes into Link; refresh source-backed wiki pages, propose memories, and validate updates through the CLI without MCP.
