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

teams-api commit-message.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.

What it actually says

Commit Message Instructions

  • Generate commit messages using Conventional Commits.
  • Format the subject as <type>: <summary>.
  • Allowed types are feat, fix, docs, chore, ci, refactor, test, style, build, perf, and revert.
  • Choose feat only for user-visible or API-visible functionality changes.
  • Use fix for bug fixes.
  • Use docs, ci, test, refactor, build, style, perf, revert, or chore when those better match the staged changes.
  • Keep the summary in imperative mood and lowercase after the colon.
  • Keep the subject focused on the staged diff only.
  • Do not mention AI, Copilot, or tooling in the commit message.
  • Do not add a body unless the staged changes are breaking.
  • For breaking changes, use the subject <type>!: <summary> and add a BREAKING CHANGE: footer that explains the compatibility impact.

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.
