Azure SDK for Go is a collection of Go modules for using and managing Microsoft Azure services through code. Go developers use client modules to work with existing Azure resources and management modules to configure those resources. Its catalogue add-ons provide instructions and agent support for developing within the SDK repository.

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 | $0.00086 | $0.04447 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00034 | $0.01779 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00889 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00445 |
Grade A, and why
code-review 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 21d 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.

Azure SDK for Go Code Review
Review changes against the Azure SDK for Go
design guidelines and
implementation guidelines, together with
AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and the repository
Copilot instructions.
Repository-specific instructions win. Where this skill or a file under .github/instructions/ contradicts the
published guidelines, follow the repository. The published guidelines describe the cross-language ideal; this repo
has deliberate exceptions.
Comment only on issues that a Go SDK maintainer would ask to change before merging.
Step 0 — Decide whether to comment at all
Before writing any comment, run through this gate. If any item applies, stay silent.
-
Generated code. If the file contains a
DO NOT EDIT.code-generation marker (emitted by both the current Go Code Generator and the retired AutoRest generator), do not comment on style, naming, doc comments, example values, constants, or any pattern listed in.github/instructions/go-code.instructions.md. Only report a clear, demonstrable bug not covered by those rules. When in doubt, say nothing — the fix belongs inazure-rest-api-specsor the emitter, not in this repo. Never suggest editing generated output directly; it is overwritten on regeneration. Point the fix at the source spec, the generator inputs (e.g.tsp-location.yaml), or the generator itself — see generation guidance. Files that are generated but intentionally hand-maintained, such asversion.go, omit this marker so their version const can be updated; treat them as regular editable code.The one exception is acronym casing (see "Naming and file conventions" below). Go uppercases acronyms in exported identifiers while most other languages don't, so these are routinely missed upstream. Flag them on generated code too, for types, struct fields, methods, enum/constant member names, and function parameters —
userId stringshould beuserID string. Parameters aren't public surface, but leaving them inconsistent looks sloppy and spreads. Because generated files are overwritten, the comment must say the fix belongs upstream inazure-rest-api-specs(via a client-name customization such as@clientName), not in this repository. Never suggest editing the generated file directly.
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.

code-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository Azure/azure-sdk-for-go (1,857 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 4,447 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-03.
