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 | $0.00000 | $0.02011 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00804 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00402 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00201 |
Grade A, and why
prose-lint 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 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.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 148 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Prose lint
Audit prose against .claude/rules/prose.md and apply the fixes.
Read that rules file in full before the first edit. This skill describes the procedure only; the rules file is the authority on what is banned.
Audit adversarially. When a sentence is defensible under a loose reading and a violation under a strict one, treat it as a violation. A borderline construction is rewritten, not excused, and doubt resolves toward the edit. Under-reporting is the failure mode to avoid. A grep hit stands until you can state which exemption in this file covers it.
Scope
Default target
Audit files with pending changes, from git status --porcelain and git diff --name-only HEAD.
When the user gives paths or a diff range, use those instead.
Audit every piece of prose inside each target file:
- Markdown body text, including headings, list items, table cells, and admonitions.
- Plain comments in any language.
- Formal documentation comments (Numpydoc, JSDoc, Doxygen, Javadoc, XML doc comments). The same standard applies to them as to Markdown body text.
- User-facing string literals such as log messages, help text, error messages, and CLI output.
- Commit messages under review.
Do not edit:
- Identifiers, code, URLs, file paths, and dependency names.
- Assistant instructions.
AGENTS.md,CLAUDE.md, and everything under.claude/are out of scope, including when the user requests every file (everywhere,the whole repository, a glob that covers them). Report a hit in one of them only when the user has requested a change to that file. - Fenced blocks and italic examples inside
.claude/rules/prose.md. They exist to demonstrate violations. - Released
CHANGELOG.mdsections. Only theUnreleasedsection is in scope. - Quoted material from an external source. Flag it for the user instead.
Detection
Run the greps below over the target files, then review every hit by hand. Each grep over-matches by design; a noun matching a banned verb is valid, and the fix depends on the sentence. claim is valid wherever a specification defines it as a term, such as an OIDC or JWT claim. The noun project is valid and accounts for most hits on that word. Only the verb is banned, and the geometric sense of the verb is valid too. The noun ask is banned as well. Review every hit on that word rather than excusing the noun.
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.

prose-lint is a skill published in the GitHub repository Tatsh/wiswa-mcp (0 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,011 tokens. 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 2026-09-11.
