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

pag-extract 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 2mo 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

GitHub Copilot — instructions for this repository

@AGENTS.md

The line above pulls in this repository's full agent instructions. If your Copilot surface does not resolve @-includes, open AGENTS.md directly — it is the single source of truth and this file deliberately holds no copy of it.

Copilot-specific notes

The skill is already wired. .claude/skills/pag-extract/SKILL.md is picked up without any setup: .claude/skills is one of the skill-discovery paths for both Copilot CLI and Copilot in VS Code, alongside .github/skills and .agents/skills. Do not create a .github/skills/pag-extract/ copy — two skills sharing the name pag-extract is a conflict, not a fallback.

Terminal access is required. The tool is a CLI. Copilot needs permission to run node (or bun). In Copilot CLI approve the command when prompted, or start the session in autopilot mode if you want it to run unattended.

Typical one-liner the user will ask for:

node pag-extract.mjs <pag-url-or-INSTANCE/SHORTNAME> --talks --out programme.md

Everything else — options, failure modes, hard rules — is in AGENTS.md.

Changes

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.
