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 | $0.00042 | $0.03260 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.01304 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00652 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00326 |
Grade A, and why
hacktricks-methodology 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.

Service Methodology
When to Use
- A port or service was discovered (nmap, MSF scan, client intel).
- You need service-specific attack paths, not generic web vuln payloads (use
web-app-pentestfor OWASP testing). - You need OS privesc checklists after shell access (route to OS skills).
Workflow
Task Progress:
- [ ] Identify service/version from scan or msf_service_info
- [ ] Route to dedicated skill or per-port module table below
- [ ] Enumerate with safe scanners first
- [ ] Execute in-scope only with engagement_id

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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 491 lines · 42 tokens per session scan A 629554ade024
hacktricks-methodology is a skill published in the GitHub repository Suzu-Testing/metasploit-cursor-harness (3 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 3,260 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
