Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00192 | $0.02466 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00096 | $0.01233 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00038 | $0.00493 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00247 |
Grade A, and why
azuresql-db-dab scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 3d 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.

Instant REST + GraphQL API on the Azure SQL Database container with Data API Builder
Generate a full REST and GraphQL API over the local Azure SQL Database container
(Private Preview) with no application code, using Data API Builder (DAB) -
Microsoft's first-party open-source engine. You describe tables as entities in
dab-config.json; DAB serves them. DAB connects over the normal TDS protocol
with a plain connection string, so no change tracking or special engine
feature is needed.
Load-bearing facts (inlined; full engine detail in azuresql-db-container)
- This is the Azure SQL Database engine (Private Preview), not the SQL Server
image
mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server.SERVERPROPERTY('EngineEdition')returns5,SERVERPROPERTY('Edition')returns'SQL Azure'. - Image:
sqldbpreview-dpgaeqhmgphzd4bk.azurecr.io/azure-sql/db-dev:latest(x64,linux/amd64). Registry is private: sign in first withdocker login sqldbpreview-dpgaeqhmgphzd4bk.azurecr.iousing the shared pull-only credentials from https://aka.ms/sqldbcontainerpreview-signup (they may rotate). Registry and tag are provisional during Private Preview. - Required env:
ACCEPT_EULA=Yand a complexMSSQL_SA_PASSWORD(8+ chars, upper/lower/digit/symbol). Engine listens on 1433. - The engine does NOT auto-create databases. Run
CREATE DATABASE appdbon a master connection before DAB connects withDatabase=appdb. Do not useUSEto switch databases (in a user-database session it returnsMsg 40508); select the database in the connection string. - On a non-x64 host add
--platform linux/amd64.
For the full engine model (readiness loop, vectors, troubleshooting) see the
azuresql-db-container skill. To start the container and provision appdb
first, use azuresql-db-container or azuresql-db-scaffold.
Step 1: install DAB
Two supported ways. Pick the CLI for local dev; pick the container to wire DAB into a compose stack (see references/dab-snippets.md).
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.

azuresql-db-dab is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/azure-sql-database-container (16 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 192 tokens to every session and 2,466 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
