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 | $0.00053 | $0.01694 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00847 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00339 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
verify-dictation 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 11d 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 — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Verify dictation
VZT Flow's core promise is "hold a key, talk, transcript lands wherever your cursor is." This checklist proves that promise end to end, with real audio and real numbers — not "the code compiles so it probably works."
0. Prerequisites
First, confirm which build you are about to verify. Verifying the wrong
binary is worse than not verifying — it produces a confident green result about
an app nobody is running. This has happened: a "hotkey is broken" investigation
ran for an hour against a healthy process before anyone checked that
/Applications/VZT Flow.app was an ad-hoc v0.3.2 dev build, two versions
behind a crash fix it was still carrying (CLAUDE.md gotcha (j)).
./target/release/flow status | grep version # the RUNNING daemon's version
grep -m1 '^version' Cargo.toml # what this tree is
codesign -dv --verbose=2 "/Applications/VZT Flow.app" 2>&1 | grep -E "flags|TeamIdentifier"
Release = flags=0x10000(runtime) + TeamIdentifier=LKHKU5BW73. Local build =
flags=0x2(adhoc) + TeamIdentifier=not set. State which one you tested; a
report that doesn't name the build under test is not a verification.
source ~/.cargo/env
cargo build --release --workspace
./target/release/flow doctor
flow doctor must show both models present (Parakeet always; Qwen3 cleanup
if you're testing clean/polish). If a model is missing:
./target/release/flow models download parakeet-v3
./target/release/flow models download cleanup # only if testing clean/polish
1. The human hotkey test (do this yourself, not via script)
- Launch the desktop app (or relaunch a dev build — see CLAUDE.md gotcha
(a): use
nohup <dev-binary> &, neveropen, and never kill the user's running daily-driver instance without relaunching it for them). - Hold Right Option, speak a full sentence, release. Confirm: overlay shows Recording → Transcribing (with a mode badge) → Done, and the transcript pastes into whatever's focused.
- Tap Right Option (press+release under 300ms). Confirm hands-free starts, then stops on its own after ~2.5s of silence (or tap again to stop manually).
- Hold, start speaking, hit Esc mid-recording. Confirm nothing is transcribed or pasted — the overlay just clears.
- Focus a password field, dictate. Confirm the overlay shows "Secure field — transcript on clipboard" and nothing gets typed into the field.
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.
- 11d ago First seen · 149 lines · 53 tokens per session scan A 7d36baf03ab4
verify-dictation is a skill published in the GitHub repository vonzelle-vzt/vzt-flow (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 1,694 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
