Azure SDK for Rust is a collection of Rust libraries, organized as separate crates, for interacting with Azure services. Rust developers use the crates and examples to build applications that work with Azure. The catalogue entries provide coding-agent skills, instructions, agents, and MCP integrations for working with the SDK.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00018 | $0.00318 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00127 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00064 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00032 |
Grade A, and why
update-rust 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 1mo 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
Run eng/scripts/Update-Rust.ps1 to update the pinned Rust toolchain versions.
What the script does
- Fetches the latest stable Rust version from GitHub (if
-Versionnot specified) - Detects a working nightly toolchain date from
rustc --version(if-NightlyVersionnot specified), advancing day-by-day untilrustupcan install it - Updates
rust-toolchain.toml,eng/scripts/Language-Settings.ps1, andeng/scripts/*.rsshebang lines
Parameters
-Version— stable channel version (e.g.,"1.96.0"); omit to auto-detect from GitHub-NightlyVersion— nightly date (e.g.,"2026-05-01"or"nightly-2026-05-01"); omit to auto-detect fromrustc --version
Examples
Update both channels automatically:
eng/scripts/Update-Rust.ps1
Update to a specific stable version with auto-detected nightly:
eng/scripts/Update-Rust.ps1 -Version 1.96.0
Update both channels explicitly:
eng/scripts/Update-Rust.ps1 -Version 1.96.0 -NightlyVersion 2026-05-01
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.

update-rust is a skill published in the GitHub repository Azure/azure-sdk-for-rust (886 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 318 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
