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 | $0.00029 | $0.03563 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.01782 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00713 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00356 |
Grade A, and why
deployment 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 10d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 548 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Deployment Skill
This skill helps implement CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices for Power BI Desktop Projects (PBIP).
When to Use This Skill
- Setting up automated validation pipelines
- Creating deployment workflows
- Implementing BPA checks in CI
- Configuring environment promotion
- Automating Power BI Service deployments
- Managing PBIP projects in source control

What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

deployment is a skill published in the GitHub repository kpbray/power-bi-agent-skills (9 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 3,563 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
