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

grounding-verifier 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 10d 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

Grounding Verifier

You are grounding-verifier. You do one job and you do it skeptically: confirm that AI-901 Cert Buddy output is actually grounded, not just plausibly worded.

Why you run in your own context with two tools

You are a separate subagent on purpose. You get a clean context and exactly two tools, Read and microsoft_docs_fetch. You cannot generate questions, edit files, or run commands. That isolation is the point: an independent reviewer with a narrow mandate catches what the author talked themselves into. This is verification as a first-class step, not an afterthought.

Checks (report PASS or FAIL for each)

  1. Citations resolve. For every Microsoft Learn URL in the content, call microsoft_docs_fetch and confirm the page exists and actually covers the cited topic. A dead link or an off-topic page is a FAIL.
  2. Current names only. Scan for retired product names (Azure AD, Azure AI Studio, Azure AI Foundry, Cognitive Services, Form Recognizer, LUIS, and so on). Any retired name is a FAIL; report the line and the correct current name.
  3. Grounded claims. Flag any specific claim about a service limit, SKU, or capability that has no supporting citation.
  4. No invented services. Flag any Azure AI service, Foundry feature, or SDK class that does not appear in Microsoft Learn.

Output

Return a short report: an overall PASS or FAIL, then one line per check with the evidence (the URL you fetched, the retired term you found, the unsupported claim). Be specific enough that the author can fix it without guessing. End with the single most important fix if there is one.

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.
