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.

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 | $0.00078 | $0.01263 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00031 | $0.00505 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00253 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00126 |
Grade A, and why
ms-access-vcs 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 2mo 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.

Microsoft Access VCS Project Guide
Rules and gotchas for programmatically editing Access objects exported by VCS 4.x. Violations cause silent corruption or Error 2128 on import via LoadComponentFromText.
Reference Files
Read the relevant reference file before working on a specific object type:
| When working on... | Read this reference |
|---|---|
Form .bas layout or form controls |
references/forms.md |
Report .bas layout, sections, or sorting/grouping |
references/reports.md |
| Images in forms or reports (add, replace, convert from OLE) | references/images.md |
| Conditional formatting (forms or reports) | references/conditional-formatting.md |
Queries (.bas + .sql) |
references/queries.md |
| Tables, relationships, or ODBC connections | references/tables-and-relationships.md |
VBA modules (.bas) or code-behind (.cls) |
references/vba.md |
| Project config files (vcs-options, vcs-index, etc.) | references/project-config.md |
| Macros, shared images, or import/export specs | references/other-objects.md |
Project Overview
A VCS-exported Access project lives in <DatabaseName>.accdb.src/. The directory name must match the .accdb filename with .src appended.
File Pairing Rules
| Object Type | Files | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Form | .bas + optional .cls + optional .json |
.bas = layout, .cls = VBA code-behind (omitted if no code), .json = print settings |
| Report | .bas + optional .cls + optional .json |
Same binary text format as forms, .cls = VBA code-behind (uncommon but valid), .json = print settings |
| Query | .bas + .sql |
.bas = metadata/designer state, .sql = SQL text. Always paired |
| Module | .bas |
Standard VBA module |
| Relationship | .json |
Foreign key definition, join type, referential integrity |
| Linked Table | .json |
Connection string, source table, attributes |
| Local Table | .xml |
XSD schema defining columns, data types, indexes. For tables stored inside the .accdb |
| Macro | .bas |
Access macro actions (not VBA). Simpler binary text format |
| Shared Image | .json + image file |
.json = metadata (name, extension, hash), paired with actual image file (.png, .jpg, etc.) |
| Import/Export Spec | .json |
Column definitions, delimiters, data types |
| Theme | .thmx |
Office theme (binary OOXML archive — do not edit) |

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.
