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

speckit.checklist 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 1mo 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

Sub-Agent Delegation

When executing this command, delegate independent work to parallel sub-agents to reduce total execution time.

How to dispatch sub-agents in Copilot:

  • VS Code: Use the runSubagent tool to spawn each sub-agent in an isolated context.
  • CLI: Delegate to a sub-agent process — Copilot CLI automatically manages subsidiary sub-agent execution. You can also target custom agents defined in .github/agents/ or ~/.copilot/agents/.

Feature Context Loading in Parallel

When loading feature context (step 4), dispatch parallel reads:

  1. Sub-agent: Spec analysis — "Read spec.md at {FEATURE_DIR}/spec.md. Extract requirements, user stories, edge cases, and non-functional attributes relevant to the checklist domain: '{domain}'. Return a structured summary focused on requirement quality signals."

  2. Sub-agent: Plan and tasks analysis — "Read plan.md and tasks.md at {FEATURE_DIR}/ (if they exist). Extract technical details, dependencies, and implementation tasks relevant to the checklist domain: '{domain}'. Return a structured summary."

Use the consolidated results to generate higher-quality, context-aware checklist items.

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.
