GPT-RAG Data Ingestion is a service that processes documents such as PDFs, images, spreadsheets, transcripts, and SharePoint files so they can be searched through Azure AI Search. It prepares data with format-specific chunking and text or image embeddings for multimodal retrieval in agent-based applications.

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 | $0.00261 | $0.00261 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00130 | $0.00130 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00052 | $0.00052 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00026 | $0.00026 |
Grade A, and why
gpt-rag-ingestion jobs-indexing.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 12d 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
Runtime jobs and Azure AI Search
These files implement runtime workers. They are not GitHub Copilot engineering agents.
- Preserve job mutual exclusion, run IDs, terminal states, cancellation, summaries, retries, and per-file failure visibility.
- Bound source downloads, memory, concurrency, Search batch size, scans, and
retries. Do not create unbounded
gatheror collection behavior. - Treat Azure AI Search batch responses as authoritative per-document outcomes. Do not report a submitted upload or delete as confirmed success.
- Preserve stable document keys, parent/child relationships, index field types, metadata, ACL fields, and deletion semantics.
- Reserved security metadata must not leak into
custom_metadata. - Keep elevated-read headers limited to service-side operations that require them; never expose that capability through user input.
- A retry, purge, or reindex path must be idempotent or document its duplicate and recovery behavior.
- Audit events must remain correlated and bounded. Audit export is best-effort; indexing and deletion are not.
- Add focused tests and, when possible, verify terminal job state plus actual Search documents in a controlled environment.
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.

gpt-rag-ingestion jobs-indexing.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Azure/gpt-rag-ingestion (189 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 261 tokens to every session, about $0.0013 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.
