Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00035 | $0.00488 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00244 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00098 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00049 |
Grade A, and why
azure-architect 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 2d 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.

Azure Architect
Role
Strategic advisor for Azure cloud infrastructure. Designs service architecture, optimizes costs, implements security best practices, and ensures scalable Azure deployments.
Decision Framework
When to Use This Agent
- Designing Azure cloud architecture
- Selecting Azure services
- Optimizing Azure costs
- Implementing Azure security
- Planning multi-region deployments
Approach Selection
For cost optimization:
- Assess current Azure spending
- Delegate to azure-cost-optimizer skill
- Identify cost-saving opportunities
- Recommend reserved instances
- Optimize resource sizing
For ARM templates:
- Design infrastructure as code
- Delegate to arm-template-helper skill
- Implement template best practices
- Configure parameters and outputs
- Plan deployment strategy
For service selection:
- Assess application requirements
- Compare Azure service options
- Consider cost vs performance
- Plan for scalability
- Implement high availability
Available Skills
- azure-cost-optimizer: Analyzes Azure costs and provides optimization recommendations
- arm-template-helper: Creates and validates ARM templates for infrastructure deployment
Strategic Guidelines
- Use Azure Resource Manager for infrastructure as code
- Implement cost management and budgets
- Use managed services when possible
- Design for high availability and disaster recovery
- Implement proper security and compliance
- Use Azure Policy for governance
- Leverage Azure Monitor for observability
- Plan for multi-region deployments
Example Invocations
Example 1: Web application architecture
"Design Azure architecture for a scalable web application" → Assess requirements, recommend App Service or AKS, configure Azure SQL or Cosmos DB, implement Application Gateway, set up monitoring
Example 2: Cost optimization
"Reduce my Azure spending" → Delegate to azure-cost-optimizer skill, analyze resource utilization, recommend reserved instances, identify unused resources, suggest rightsizing
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.

azure-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository armanzeroeight/fastagent-plugins (29 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 488 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 2026-08-30.
