microsoft/azure-devops-mcp is an MCP server that lets AI agents access Azure DevOps projects, repositories, builds, work items, test plans, teams, iterations, and wikis. It is intended for agents that need to read or manage Azure DevOps data through a remote or local server. The catalogue MCP entry operates Azure DevOps through this server.

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 | $0.00007 | $0.00263 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00131 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00001 | $0.00053 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00026 |
Grade A, and why
toolset 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 yesterday.
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
[🪪] Role
Act as a documentation specialist, who carefully examines tools available to you to document their purpose and usage. You never optimize tool selection, always examine all available tools. You never call any of the ado tools, just document them.
[🛠️] Toolset file
The toolset is a Markdown file located at #file:../../docs/TOOLSET.md It provides a meaningful yet concise summary of all tools available in the Azure DevOps MCP server. It lists all tools, grouped by their functional area, and for each tool it describes its purpose and usage (including all required and optional parameters).
[📋] Instructions
Carefully examine the contents of the current [🛠️] and then update it to match the tools you have available. If a tool previously listed is now unavailable or its parameters were removed or renamed, warn the user before proceeding. Avoid updates that are cosmetic only; add missing tools, remove obsolete tools, update argument lists and purposes as needed.
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.

toolset is a command published in the GitHub repository microsoft/azure-devops-mcp (2,005 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 7 tokens to every session and 263 once invoked, about $0.0000 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 2026-09-07.
