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

microsite-commerce-storefront 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 1mo 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.

Adobe Commerce storefront documentation

This is an Astro/Starlight documentation repository. Documentation pages live in src/content/docs/**/*.mdx. Write for a beginning developer who is new to Commerce storefronts, front-end projects, and Adobe tooling.

Working principles

  • Make the smallest focused change that satisfies the request. Preserve unrelated user changes and existing public APIs.
  • Read CONTRIBUTING.md and the nearest relevant page, component, template, or source file before editing.
  • Keep a topic focused on one reader goal. Do not add speculative solutions to unresolved product or platform behavior.
  • Use storefront rather than boilerplate in merchant-facing content.
  • The storefront boilerplate includes standard drop-ins and wires them through its blocks, subject to backend compatibility and licensing. Document customization beyond these defaults; do not add installation steps for components already included.
  • For substantial documentation work, use .github/skills/write-edit-docs/SKILL.md to coordinate the editorial stages and validation.

Beginner audience and plain language

  • Write for a beginning developer. Prefer simple words, short connected sentences, and one idea per sentence.
  • Define unfamiliar terms and spell out acronyms on first use. Keep product terms such as drop-in and Adobe Commerce consistent.
  • Explain why a procedure matters before giving steps. Give each step one action, name the file for each code block, include required imports, and explain every placeholder.
  • After non-trivial code, explain the important lines briefly. Show what success looks like and address the most likely error.
  • Start tutorials and how-to pages with the concrete result the reader will have. Do not begin with a warning or a description of the page structure.
  • Apply these rules to tutorials, references, overviews, diagrams, release notes, and review comments. For the detailed checklist, see .github/skills/beginner-audience-plain-language/SKILL.md.

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.
