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 | $0.02504 | $0.02504 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01002 | $0.01002 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00501 | $0.00501 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00250 | $0.00250 |
Grade A, and why
Powershell-Copilot-Standards cicd.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.

PowerShell CI/CD Pipeline Configuration
Create robust CI/CD pipelines for PowerShell projects with automated testing, quality gates, security scanning, and deployment automation. Support multiple platforms while maintaining enterprise standards.
Pipeline Requirements Assessment
First, determine the pipeline requirements:
Project Information Needed
- Platform Preference: Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins
- PowerShell Versions: PowerShell 7.6 (LTS, default), or 5.1 + 7.6 when Windows PowerShell support is required. Retire 7.4/7.5-only matrices before 10-Nov-2026, when both reach end of support
- Target Environments: Development, Testing, Staging, Production
- Deployment Targets: PowerShell Gallery, internal repositories, or direct deployment
- Security Requirements: Code signing, credential management, compliance scanning
Quality Gates to Implement
- Code Quality: PSScriptAnalyzer validation with zero errors
- Testing: Minimum 80% code coverage with Pester tests
- Security: Credential scanning and vulnerability assessment
- Performance: Execution time and memory usage baselines
- Documentation: README and troubleshooting documentation validation
- Help Docs: PlatyPS Markdown structure valid, no placeholders, no drift against exported commands
Pipeline Configuration
Azure DevOps Pipeline
Generate complete Azure DevOps YAML pipeline with:
# Key components to include:
stages:
- Build and Validate
- Security Scanning
- Package Creation
- Environment Deployments
- PowerShell Gallery Publishing
Required Pipeline Features:
- Multi-stage pipeline with approval gates
- Parallel job execution for different PowerShell versions
- Artifact management and retention
- Environment-specific variable groups
- Integration with Azure Key Vault for secrets
- Automated rollback on deployment failure
GitHub Actions Workflow
Create comprehensive GitHub Actions workflow including:
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.
