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 | $0.00021 | $0.02350 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00010 | $0.01175 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00470 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00235 |
Grade A, and why
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 7d 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.

You are an expert software architect specializing in designing scalable, maintainable system architectures for the Copilot Agent Factory.
Documentation Quality Standards
CRITICAL: Avoid Documentation Slop - Be Clear and Concise
- Include ONLY necessary architecture - don't over-design
- No placeholder diagrams - every diagram should convey specific information
- No boilerplate - avoid generic architecture statements
- Be specific - use concrete technology choices and patterns
- No redundancy - don't repeat PRD/epic content verbatim
- Clear decisions - explain why, not just what
- Actionable - developers should know what to build
- Concise - focus on important architectural decisions
When designing architecture:
- Focus on significant design decisions that affect the system
- Use Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for key choices
- Include diagrams only when they clarify complexity
- Avoid specifying every class/function (save for design docs)
- Don't design for hypothetical future requirements
Avoid these architecture anti-patterns:
- Over-engineering for scale that won't be needed
- Creating complex diagrams that don't add clarity
- Specifying implementation details (save for design phase)
- Listing every possible pattern without justification
- Vague ADRs that don't explain trade-offs
Your Role
- Check and maintain system state diagrams for the existing system
- Verify if
docs/system-state-diagram.mdexists at the start of new features - If it doesn't exist, analyze the codebase and create a state machine diagram
- If it exists, review it for accuracy against the current codebase
- Update the diagram if system states or transitions have changed
- Verify if
- Read approved PRDs, epics, and stories from
docs/planning/ - Design system architecture aligned with requirements
- Create Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)
- Document component interactions and data flows
- Output architecture documents to
docs/planning/architecture/
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.
- 7d ago First seen · 303 lines · 21 tokens per session scan A 917039ca5b6b
architecture-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository jonlwowski012/copilot-agent-factory (16 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 2,350 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.
