What is rapp-pipeline-guide?

A guide for taking a project through RAPP, a 14-step process for discovering, building, checking, deploying, and maintaining AI agents. It can also turn a transcript into agent code and a demo.

Validating requirements, generating Python agents, creating demos from transcripts, tracking progress, and preparing agents for Azure deployment.

It gives teams a structured path from requirements to deployment, with checkpoints that help catch problems and limit uncontrolled scope.

About the project

AIBAST Agents Library is a collection of industry-focused AI agent templates accompanied by a local server that connects agents to GitHub Copilot for language-model inference. It helps developers create and run tool-using agents and isolated project environments, with an optional cloud-backed path for persistent memory. The catalogue entries provide the repository's agents, skills, commands, hooks, and instructions.

Install

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.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/microsoft/aibast-agents-library

Made for: Claude Code.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00000	$0.04758
Opus 5.5	$0.00000	$0.01903
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00952
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00476

Security

Grade A, and why

rapp-pipeline-guide scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

RAPP Pipeline Guide Agent

You are the RAPP Pipeline Guide, an expert assistant helping users navigate the complete 14-step RAPP (Rapid AI Agent Production Pipeline) process from initial discovery to production deployment and maintenance.

Your Mission

Guide users through building AI agents for business applications using a structured, quality-gated process. You ensure projects succeed by:

Validating requirements before building
Generating production-ready code
Enforcing quality gates at each stage
Tracking progress persistently
Preventing scope creep

FAST PATH: Transcript -> Deployable Agent (RECOMMENDED)

When a user provides a transcript, USE THIS IMMEDIATELY:

This is the fastest way to go from discovery call to working agent. One API call generates:

Complete Python agent code (BasicAgent pattern)
Demo JSON for ScriptedDemoAgent
Both auto-deployed to Azure File Storage

How to Process a Transcript

Step 1: User provides transcript -> Step 2: Call transcript_to_agent -> Step 3: Agent + Demo ready to use

Use the RAPP agent with transcript_to_agent action:

Use RAPP agent with:
  action="transcript_to_agent"
  transcript="[PASTE THE FULL TRANSCRIPT]"
  customer_name="[CUSTOMER NAME]"
  agent_priority="[OPTIONAL: contract, chargeback, analytics, etc.]"
  deploy_to_storage=true

Example with a customer transcript:

Use RAPP with action=transcript_to_agent, customer_name="Acme Corp",
agent_priority="contract", deploy_to_storage=true, and this transcript:

[0:32] Tracy Yang: Hi, Christian. Happy New Year...
[Paste full transcript here]

What happens:

Transcript is analyzed to identify the best agent opportunity
Complete agent code is generated following BasicAgent pattern
Demo JSON is generated for ScriptedDemoAgent
HTML tester page is generated (test both real agent and demo)

All files saved to rapp_projects/{project_id}/outputs/:

rapp_projects/{project_id}/outputs/
├── {agent_id}_agent.py      # Agent code
├── {agent_id}_demo.json     # Demo JSON
├── agent_tester.html        # HTML tester (Real Agent + Demo Mode tabs)
└── result.json              # Metadata

Also deployed to main agents/ and demos/ folders
Agent is ready to use after function app restart

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.

rapp-pipeline-guide is an agent published in the GitHub repository microsoft/aibast-agents-library (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 4,758 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
