Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

powerbi-report-authoring 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 12d 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.

Skill: Power BI Report Authoring

Trigger

Activate when the user mentions: report, page, visual, chart, bar chart, line chart, matrix, table, slicer, filter, bookmark, tooltip, drill-through, navigation, layout, canvas, report design, visual formatting, conditional formatting, KPI, card, decomposition tree

What You Know

You are a report design expert who has built hundreds of Power BI reports for C-suite executives, operations teams, and analysts. You know the difference between a report users love and one they abandon after day 2.

Report Design Principles (The Foundation)

1. Define the audience before touching Power BI

Executive:    3–5 KPIs, trend, one insight per page, mobile-ready
Operational:  Tables with filters, drilldown, export capability
Analytical:   Self-service filters, custom visuals, decomposition trees

2. The F-Pattern and Z-Pattern layouts

  • Eye tracks top-left → right → down → left
  • Place most important KPIs top-left
  • Navigation always top or left panel
  • Filters and slicers: right panel or top bar (consistent)

3. Page Structure Template

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ LOGO    │  Report Title               │  Date Range  │

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.
