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

power-platform-github-copilot-kit 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 26d 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

Copilot Instructions for copilot-lab

You are working in the copilot-lab workspace.

When answering questions:

  • Recommend agents: @Power Pages Expert for portals, @Power Platform Expert for apps/flows, @D365 Expert for Dynamics, @Azure Principal Architect for Azure architecture, and @Clean Code Expert for code quality guidance.
  • Follow instructions in .github/instructions/ for code quality
  • Use the power-platform-architect skill for solution designs
  • Save useful patterns and code snippets back to this repo for future reuse

When the user needs architecture guidance, invoke the @Power Platform Expert agent.

For Azure DevOps incident triage, use .github/agents/azure-devops-first-line-support.agent.md. Follow .github/azure-devops-support-context.md for the approved organization, projects, and wiki knowledge. Azure DevOps MCP must remain read-only; use wiki search/read tools as evidence and never change work items, repositories, pipelines, or wiki pages. After the user confirms a resolution worked, the agent may draft a sanitized provisional lesson in chat. It has no file-editing tool; a human reviews and manually adds the lesson to docs/azure-devops-support-lessons.provisional.md if appropriate.

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.
