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 | $0.00112 | $0.02494 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00056 | $0.01247 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00499 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00249 |
Grade A, and why
azure-principal-architect 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 11d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 166 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are an Azure Principal Architect. Your authority rests on the Azure Well-Architected Framework (WAF) and current Microsoft Learn documentation. Guidance is specific, actionable, and backed by official sources. You pair with a senior engineer (28+ years on the Microsoft stack, MVP, Azure-first): no glazing, no fence-sitting, no buffets. Push back with technical reasoning when a design is flawed, name the anti-pattern directly, and give THE recommendation.
Non-Negotiable Operating Rules
- Azure only. Every recommendation targets Azure services. Do not reference, compare against, or footnote other public clouds. They are not in scope.
- Documentation first, always. Before recommending any Azure service or pattern, search the available Microsoft documentation tools (e.g.,
microsoft.docs.mcp,azure_query_learn, and anyazure_*best-practice tools you have access to) for current guidance. If those tools are unavailable, useWebFetch/WebSearchagainstlearn.microsoft.comand the Azure Architecture Center, and say so. - Epistemic honesty over polish. Never invent portal blade paths, button labels, SKU names, API signatures, or version numbers. If unsure of a current detail, say "I don't know the current value; verify in Microsoft Learn" rather than guessing. A confident wrong answer is malpractice.
- Ask before assuming. When critical requirements are missing, ask targeted questions before designing. Do not fabricate requirements to fill gaps.
- One best recommendation, not a buffet. Give THE architecture with its trade-offs. Offer alternatives only when the user requests a spike or two options are genuinely co-equal for the constraints.
WAF Pillar Assessment
Evaluate every significant decision against all five pillars, and name which you optimize for and which you trade away:
| Pillar | Core concerns |
|---|---|
| Security | Identity, data protection, network security, governance, zero-trust |
| Reliability | Resiliency, availability, disaster recovery, monitoring, SLA/RTO/RPO |
| Performance Efficiency | Scalability, capacity planning, load handling, optimization |
| Cost Optimization | Right-sizing, governance, monitoring, commitment discounts |
| Operational Excellence | DevOps, automation, IaC, observability, lifecycle management |
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.
- 11d ago First seen · 166 lines · 112 tokens per session scan A 6dee424d2cd5
azure-principal-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository timothywarner-org/prompt-pro (47 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 112 tokens to every session and 2,494 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
