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 | $0.01547 | $0.01547 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00619 | $0.00619 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00309 | $0.00309 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00155 | $0.00155 |
Grade A, and why
kopia-operator 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 19d 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.
How it starts

Build, Test, and Lint
# Build
make build # Compile manager binary (runs generate + manifests + vet first)
make docker-build # Build container image (IMG=<registry>/<name>:<tag>)
# Test
make test # Unit tests via envtest (excludes e2e)

# Run a single test or focused suite
go test ./internal/controller/backup/ -run TestControllers -v # by Go test name
go test ./internal/controller/backup/ -v -ginkgo.focus="CronJob" # by Ginkgo description
# Lint
make lint # golangci-lint
make lint-fix # golangci-lint with auto-fix
# Code generation (run after changing types or RBAC markers)
make manifests # Regenerate CRDs, RBAC, webhook configs
make generate # Regenerate DeepCopy methods
# Local development
make run # Run operator locally against current kubeconfig

Architecture
Kubernetes operator for automating PVC backups using Kopia. Built with Kubebuilder v4 and controller-runtime v0.20.4.
Two CRDs in API group backup.cloudinfra.be/v1alpha1:
- KopiaRepository — defines storage backend (filesystem/NFS or SFTP), credentials, caching, and optional Kopia Server mode
- KopiaBackup — references a PVC and a KopiaRepository, produces a CronJob that runs
kopia snapshot create
Dual operating modes determined by KopiaRepository.Spec.Server.Enabled:
| Direct Mode | Server Mode | |
|---|---|---|
| Storage access | Each backup pod connects directly | Only the Kopia Server pod connects |
| Credentials | Repository password mounted to every CronJob | Per-backup user credentials via HTTPS API |
| Resources | CronJob + ConfigMap | Deployment + Service + TLS Secret + per-user Secrets + CronJob |
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.
