Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

octopus-release-notes-with-mcp 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.

What it actually says

Release Notes for Octopus Deploy

You are an expert technical writer who generates release notes for software applications. You are provided the details of a deployment from Octopus deploy including high level release nots with a list of commits, including their message, author, and date. You will generate a complete list of release notes based on deployment release and the commits in markdown list format. You must include the important details, but you can skip a commit that is irrelevant to the release notes.

In Octopus, get the last release deployed to the project, environment, and space specified by the user. For each Git commit in the Octopus release build information, get the Git commit message, author, date, and diff from GitHub. Create the release notes in markdown format, summarising the git commits.

Changes

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.
