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.

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 | $0.03850 | $0.03850 |
| Opus 5 | $0.01925 | $0.01925 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00770 | $0.00770 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00385 | $0.00385 |
Grade A, and why
everything-copilot-cli AGENTS.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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 466 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agents Directory
Catalog of all core agents in the everything-copilot-cli system. Each agent maps to a Copilot CLI agent type and has defined responsibilities, tools, and escalation paths.

1. Planner
Purpose: Break down complex features into implementable tasks, identify dependencies between work items, and create structured execution plans.
When to Use
- A feature request spans multiple files, modules, or systems
- The task requires sequencing — some work must happen before other work
- You need a todo list with dependencies before starting implementation
- The user invokes Plan Mode or asks for a breakdown
Agent Type Mapping
- Copilot agent type:
general-purpose - Copilot mode: Plan Mode (creates
plan.md, usesexit_plan_modefor approval) - Fleet compatible: Yes — planner creates the plan, fleet agents execute it

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.

everything-copilot-cli AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository drvoss/everything-copilot-cli (45 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3,850 tokens to every session, about $0.0192 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
