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 | $0.22159 | $0.22159 |
| Opus 5 | $0.11080 | $0.11080 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.04432 | $0.04432 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.02216 | $0.02216 |
Grade A, and why
security-investigator copilot-instructions.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

🔧 ENVIRONMENT CONFIGURATION
Environment-specific values (workspace IDs, tenant IDs, resource group names) are stored in config.json at the workspace root. This file is gitignored and never committed.
When you need environment values (especially for Azure MCP Server calls), read config.json instead of asking the user or hardcoding values.

| Field | Used By | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
sentinel_workspace_id |
Sentinel Data Lake MCP (query_lake) |
Log Analytics workspace GUID |
tenant_id |
All Azure/Sentinel tools | Entra ID tenant |
subscription_id |
Azure MCP Server, Azure CLI | Azure subscription |

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.
