Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.
npx agentmods add instructions/azure/azureml-examples/copilot-instructionsgit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Azure/azureml-examplesWhat 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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00270 | $0.00270 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00135 | $0.00135 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00054 | $0.00054 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00027 |
Grade A, and why
azureml-examples copilot-instructions.md 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 2d 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.

Files owned by the AI Platform Docs team
If a file is listed in the CODEOWNERS file with @azure/ai-platform-docs as the owner, it is owned by the AI Platform Docs team. For these files:
- Do not change the filename or move the file.
- Do not remove any comments which contain <some_text> or </some_text> (for any text in between the tags)
- Do not remove any cell in a notebook if it contains metadata with "name:" in it.
- If you need to make any of the above changes, you must first contact the AI Platform Docs team. Their approval is required before making such changes.
- You can reach the team on the Teams channel ai-platform-docs.
Only files owned by the AI Platform Docs team are subject to these rules.
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.

azureml-examples copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Azure/azureml-examples (2,028 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 270 tokens to every session, about $0.0014 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.
