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 | $0.00418 | $0.00418 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00209 | $0.00209 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00084 | $0.00084 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00042 | $0.00042 |
Grade A, and why
capacity-toolkit 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 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.
What it actually says
Copilot instructions — Azure Capacity & Enablement Toolkit
This repository is a read-only-by-default Azure capacity/enablement toolkit. The full agent
guidance lives in ../AGENTS.md — read it before running anything.
Non-negotiable rules:
- READ-ONLY BY DEFAULT. With the analysis scripts, never create, modify, delete, scale or
restart any Azure resource — the only writes are local files under
output/. Noaz ... create/update/delete/set, noNew-Az*/Set-Az*/Remove-Az*, noterraform apply, nokubectl apply/deleteon your own initiative. - One opt-in write tool.
Deploy-QuotaGroups.ps1(withNew-QuotaGroupConfig.ps1) provisions quota groups. Only run it on explicit human instruction, always-Action Validate+-WhatIffirst, and confirm before any execute run. See../docs/quota-groups.md. - Confirm tenant/subscription before login or context switch. Show
az account showand wait for explicit user approval. Never silently change the activeazcontext. - Minimum access is Reader (plus management-group read for quota groups). On
AuthorizationFailed, report it as a finding — do not escalate or work around RBAC. - Treat all discovered data as tenant-confidential; never send it to third parties. Clear
output/before sharing any generated CSV/HTML.
Standard flow: Get-UsedSkus.ps1 (discover) → New-CapacityReport.ps1 -ConfigPath ... -Dashboard
(report + dashboard) → open output/capacity-dashboard-<date>.html. See AGENTS.md §3–§6 for
parameters, platform quirks, the interpretation guide, and the pre-share sanitization sweep.
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.

capacity-toolkit copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository microsoft/capacity-toolkit (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 418 tokens to every session, about $0.0021 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
