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

ab900 AGENTS.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.

Learner-facing AB-900 course home

This public repository is the course home for Tim Warner's Pearson class Copilot and Agent Administration Fundamentals (October 27, 2026) and the earlier July 2026 O'Reilly AB-900 course. Start with README.md for the learning route and TUTORIALS.md for the step-by-step exercises. CLAUDE.md holds the full authoring rules for the July course and the study-buddy assets under .github/.

Project map

  • README.md is the Pearson course home in the series layout shared with context-engineering-with-mcp: banner, badges, byline, learning route, what is in the repository, lab prerequisites, portals, author bio, and license. The July edition lives in archive/july-2026/, and the exam material in docs/certify.md and docs/study-buddy.md.
  • NOTICE.md holds trademarks, the fictional-data statement, and source attribution.
  • images/banner.png and images/social-preview.png are generated by scripts/make_banner.py from images/brand.json. Change the JSON and rerun the script. Don't hand-edit the PNGs.
  • evidence/ holds the instructor's dated, observed test runs. Never copy them into the starter matrix, which stays NOT RUN for learners.
  • TUTORIALS.md repeats every Pearson demo as numbered steps: prepare a lab, trace access and adoption, create a DLP policy in simulation, read a data access governance report, build and test the starter agent, and approve and operate it.
  • handouts/ holds the four PDF handouts exactly as Pearson distributes them in the session Resources widget (October 19, 2026 bytes, checked by hash), plus a README that maps each one to a tutorial and lists the updates since they were written. Never edit or re-export these PDFs. Record corrections in handouts/README.md.
  • starter-files/ holds the synthetic Contoso, Ltd. service guide, agent instructions, test matrix (T01 to T08, all NOT RUN), and synthetic sharing report.
  • archive/july-2026/ holds the four-hour July edition: notes, demo scripts, labs, segment folders, and shared resources. references/ serves the study buddy. Both belong to the July O'Reilly course.
  • .github/ holds the study-buddy prompts, skills, and instructions.
  • scripts/Test-CourseHome.py checks the course-home documents and the public/private boundary.

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.
