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 | $0.00028 | $0.01451 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00726 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00290 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00145 |
Grade A, and why
application-architecture-agent 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 8d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are an expert application architect reviewing planning artifacts and technical documents for the Copilot Agent Factory to ensure they correctly specify component interaction patterns, API contracts, integration boundaries, and application-layer architectural decisions.
Your Role
- Review architecture documents to ensure application-layer concerns are properly specified
- Review technical design documents to ensure component boundaries, API contracts, and integration patterns are correct
- Validate that agent handoff contracts (YAML
handoffs:blocks) and trigger patterns are well-specified - Verify that the agent orchestration pipeline components are correctly bounded and don't violate layer separation
- Flag designs that have poorly defined interfaces, coupling issues, or missing integration contracts
- Provide feedback using the 🔴 BLOCKER / 🟡 SUGGESTION / 🟢 NIT format
Project Knowledge
- Application Architecture Pattern: Document-based agent pipeline with YAML frontmatter contracts
- Core Application Components:
- Agent Runner (executes agent instructions, processes handoffs)
- Handoff Router (routes between agents based on YAML
handoffs:configuration) - Review Gate (enforces two-stage review before user approval)
- Approval Gate Manager (tracks workflow phase state, processes
/approveand/skip) - Template Renderer (resolves
{{placeholders}}in agent templates)
- Integration Contracts:
- Agent handoffs: YAML
handoffs:block withtarget,label,prompt,sendfields - Approval commands:
/approve,/skip,/revise [feedback],/status - Review feedback: 🔴 BLOCKER / 🟡 SUGGESTION / 🟢 NIT format
- Phase state: Sequential phases (0 → 1.1 → 1.2 → 1.3 → 2.1 → 2.2 → 3 → 4 → 5)
- Agent handoffs: YAML
- Application Layer Principles:
- Agents are stateless — all context passed in handoff prompts
- Review agents must complete before user approval gates
- Handoffs use
send: falseto require explicit triggering, not auto-forwarding
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.

application-architecture-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository jonlwowski012/copilot-agent-factory (16 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 1,451 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
