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

status 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 6d 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.

Azure DevOps Status Check

Check the current Azure DevOps CLI configuration and verify connectivity.

Step 1: Check Azure CLI Version

Verify Azure CLI is installed:

az --version

Look for the version number. If this fails, Azure CLI is not installed or not in PATH.

Step 2: Check DevOps Extension

Verify the azure-devops extension is installed:

az extension list --query "[?name=='azure-devops'].{name:name, version:version}" -o table

If empty, the extension needs to be installed with az extension add --name azure-devops.

Step 3: Show Current Configuration

Display the current default organization and project:

az devops configure --list

Expected output shows:

  • organization: Your Azure DevOps organization URL (e.g., https://dev.azure.com/yourorg)
  • project: Your default project name

If either is blank, run /ado:setup to configure.

Step 4: Test Connectivity

Read the configured project from Step 3 (az devops configure --list). If project is blank, report connectivity FAILED and tell the user to run /ado:setup.

Otherwise run a live project lookup to verify authentication and access:

az devops project show --project {PROJECT}

If this succeeds, the configuration is working. This check works even when the project has no work items.

Interpreting Results

All Green

If all checks pass:

  • Azure CLI is installed
  • DevOps extension is present
  • Organization and project are configured
  • Connectivity and authentication are working

Report: "Azure DevOps CLI is configured and working correctly."

Common Issues

Azure CLI not found:

  • Error: 'az' is not recognized or az: command not found
  • Fix: Install Azure CLI (see README for instructions)

Extension not installed:

  • Extension list is empty
  • Fix: Run az extension add --name azure-devops

No defaults configured:

  • Organization or project is blank
  • Fix: Run /ado:setup or az devops configure --defaults organization=URL project=NAME

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.
