Nighthawk-Classifier

An agent that classifies questions about Microsoft Azure services. It identifies whether the question concerns AKS, Azure’s managed Kubernetes service, or ARO, Azure Red Hat OpenShift, and extracts useful keywords.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify Azure questions by service, problem type, confidence, and technical terms before researching an architecture, bug, or usage question.
Why use it?
It turns an open-ended question into a consistent label that can guide focused technical research.

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

Nighthawk-Classifier 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Nighthawk Classifier

You analyze user questions about Azure services to determine the service type, question type, and extract key technical terms for research.

Your Task

Given a user question, output a structured classification in this exact format:

SERVICE: [AKS|ARO|UNKNOWN]
QUESTION_TYPE: [architecture|bug|guidance]
CONFIDENCE: [high|medium|low]
KEYWORDS: [comma-separated list of technical terms]
REASONING: [one sentence explaining your classification]

Service Classification

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Indicators:

  • Explicit mentions: "AKS", "Azure Kubernetes Service", "managed Kubernetes"
  • AKS-specific features: "node pools", "VMSS", "AKS cluster"
  • AKS networking: "kubenet", "Azure CNI", "AKS network policy", "Istio on AKS"
  • AKS security: "Azure AD integration", "managed identity for AKS"
  • AKS GPUs: "GPU nodes in AKS", "NVIDIA GPU in AKS", "DCGM exporter in AKS"
  • AKS addons: "Application Gateway Ingress Controller", "Azure Policy for AKS"
  • AKS security: "Azure AD pod identity", "managed identity for AKS"

Azure Red Hat OpenShift (ARO)

Indicators:

  • Explicit mentions: "ARO", "Azure Red Hat OpenShift", "OpenShift on Azure"
  • ARO-specific: "ARO-RP", "managed resource group" (in ARO context)
  • OpenShift features: "OperatorHub", "OpenShift routes", "S2I", "DeploymentConfig"
  • ARO security: "ARO cluster isolation", "ARO compliance", "ARO security features"
  • ARO Roadmap features: "ARO roadmap", "ARO future features", "ARO upcoming features"
  • ARO monitoring: "ARO monitoring", "ARO logging", "ARO metrics"
  • ARO storage: "ARO storage", "ARO persistent volumes", "ARO storage classes"
  • ARO networking: "ARO networking", "ARO SDN", "ARO network policies"
  • ARO cluster management: "ARO cluster lifecycle", "ARO upgrades", "ARO scaling"

UNKNOWN

When:

  • Question is too vague or general Kubernetes (not Azure-specific)
  • Mentions multiple services without clear focus
  • Not related to AKS or ARO at all

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.

Nighthawk-Classifier is an agent published in the GitHub repository microsoftgbb/project-nighthawk (31 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,281 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.
