feat(ultraplan-local): v1.6.0 — /ultraresearch-local deep research command

Add /ultraresearch-local for structured research combining local codebase analysis with external knowledge via parallel agent swarms. Produces research briefs with triangulation, confidence ratings, and source quality assessment. New command: /ultraresearch-local with modes --quick, --local, --external, --fg. New agents: research-orchestrator (opus), docs-researcher, community-researcher, security-researcher, contrarian-researcher, gemini-bridge (all sonnet). New template: research-brief-template.md. Integration: --research flag in /ultraplan-local accepts pre-built research briefs (up to 3), enriches the interview and exploration phases. Planning orchestrator cross-references brief findings during synthesis. Design principle: Context Engineering — right information to right agent at right time. Research briefs are structured artifacts in the pipeline: ultraresearch → brief → ultraplan --research → plan → ultraexecute. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+# Token Counting and Optimization Strategies
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-02
+**Status:** GA
+**Category:** Cost Optimization & FinOps for AI
+
+---
+
+## Introduksjon
+
+Token counting og optimization er fundamentale teknikker for å kontrollere kostnader i Azure OpenAI og andre LLM-baserte løsninger. Siden fakturering baserer seg på antall tokens (både input og output), er presis måling og aktiv reduksjon av token-forbruk kritisk for økonomisk bærekraft — spesielt i høyvolum-scenarier.
+
+**Hovedpoeng:**
+- Tokens er basisenheten for prosessering — typisk ~4 tegn per token i engelsk tekst
+- Kostnader påløper for både input-tokens (prompt) og output-tokens (completion)
+- Ulike modeller har ulik pris per 1M tokens (typisk $2-100 USD / 1M tokens avhengig av modell)
+- Prompt caching, context management og compression kan redusere kostnader med 50-90%
+
+**Confidence:** High (basert på offisiell Microsoft-dokumentasjon)
+
+---
+
+## Kjernekomponenter
+
+### Token Counting Tools
+
+| Verktøy | Språk | Bruksområde | Nøyaktighet |
+|---------|-------|-------------|-------------|
+| **tiktoken** | Python, JS | OpenAI-modeller (GPT-4o, o1, o3, etc.) | Eksakt for støttede modeller |
+| **Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers** | .NET/C# | Cross-model tokenisering, BPE, Tiktoken | Eksakt |
+| **Hugging Face Tokenizers** | Python, JS, Java | Åpen-modell-tokenisering | Varierer per modell |
+
+### tiktoken — Azure OpenAI Standard
+
+```python
+import tiktoken
+
+# Encoding for GPT-4o og nyere modeller
+encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("o200k_base")  # Default for gpt-4o, o1, o3
+tokens = encoding.encode("Tell me about Azure AI")
+token_count = len(tokens)
+
+# Model-spesifikk encoding
+try:
+    encoding = tiktoken.encoding_for_model("gpt-4o")
+except KeyError:
+    encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("o200k_base")
+```
+
+**Message Overhead Calculation:**
+```python
+def num_tokens_from_messages(messages, model="gpt-4o"):
+    """Return the number of tokens used by a list of messages."""
+    try:
+        encoding = tiktoken.encoding_for_model(model)
+    except KeyError:
+        encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("o200k_base")
+
+    if model in {"gpt-4o", "gpt-4o-mini", "gpt-5", "gpt-4.1", "o1", "o3", "o4-mini"}:
+        tokens_per_message = 3
+        tokens_per_name = 1
+
+    num_tokens = 0
+    for message in messages:
+        num_tokens += tokens_per_message
+        for key, value in message.items():
+            num_tokens += len(encoding.encode(value))
+            if key == "name":
+                num_tokens += tokens_per_name
+    num_tokens += 3  # every reply is primed with <|start|>assistant<|message|>
+    return num_tokens
+```
+
+### Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers (.NET)
+
+```csharp
+using Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers;
+
+// Installer pakker:
+// dotnet add package Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers
+// dotnet add package Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers.Data.O200kBase
+
+var tokenizer = Tokenizer.CreateTiktokenForModel("gpt-4o");
+var tokens = tokenizer.CountTokens("Tell me about Azure AI");
+
+// Trimming til token-limit
+string TrimToTokenLimit(string text, int maxTokens, Tokenizer tokenizer)
+{
+    var ids = tokenizer.Encode(text).Ids;
+    if (ids.Count <= maxTokens)
+        return text;
+
+    var trimmedIds = ids.Take(maxTokens).ToArray();
+    return tokenizer.Decode(trimmedIds);
+}
+```
+
+### Token Usage Estimation (Azure OpenAI On Your Data)
+
+```python
+import tiktoken
+
+class TokenEstimator(object):
+    GPT2_TOKENIZER = tiktoken.get_encoding("gpt2")
+
+    def estimate_tokens(self, text: str) -> int:
+        return len(self.GPT2_TOKENIZER.encode(text))
+
+token_output = TokenEstimator().estimate_tokens(input_text)
+```
+
+**Merk:** On Your Data RAG har kompleks token-fordeling:
+- **20% av context window** reservert for model response
+- **80%** deles mellom meta prompt, spørsmål, conversation history og retrieved chunks
+- User question og history: capped ved 2 000 tokens
+- Retrieved documents: varierer basert på chunk size og antall retrieved chunks
+
+---
+
+## Arkitekturmønstre
+
+### 1. Prompt Caching (Native Azure OpenAI)
+
+**Automatisk aktivert for GPT-4o og nyere modeller**
+
+| Parameter | Verdi | Effekt |
+|-----------|-------|--------|
+| Minimum prompt length | 1 024 tokens | Cache hit kan først oppnås |
+| Granularitet | 128 tokens | Etter første 1024 tokens, cache hit per 128 tokens |
+| Cache TTL | 24 timer | Azure AI Foundry Classic |
+| Cache TTL | 5-10 min idle, max 1 time | Azure AI Services |
+| Kostnad (Standard) | 50% rabatt på cached tokens | Varierer per modell |
+| Kostnad (Provisioned) | Opptil 100% rabatt | Inkludert i PTU-pris |
+
+**Design-prinsipper:**
+1. **Plasser repetitivt innhold først** — system messages, instructions, reference docs
+2. **Bruk `prompt_cache_key`** for å påvirke routing og øke cache hit rate
+3. **Unngå variasjon i første 1024 tokens** — én endring = cache miss
+
+```python
+response = client.chat.completions.create(
+    model="gpt-4o",
+    messages=[
+        {"role": "system", "content": "Long system prompt..."},  # Cached
+        {"role": "user", "content": "Variable user question"}
+    ],
+    extra_body={"prompt_cache_key": "my-app-v1"}  # Optional routing hint
+)
+
+# Response inkluderer:
+# usage.prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens
+```
+
+**Kostnad-eksempel:**
+- 10 000 requests/dag med 2 000 tokens prompt
+- Uten caching: 10 000 × 2 000 = 20M input tokens/dag
+- Med 90% cache hit: 10 000 × 200 + (10 000 × 1 800 × 0.5) = 11M "effective" tokens
+- **Besparelse: 45% på input-kostnader**
+
+### 2. Conversation History Management
+
+**Problem:** Chat-applikasjoner akkumulerer context over tid → økte token costs
+
+**Løsning:** Dynamisk trimming med preservation av system message
+
+```python
+system_message = {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."}
+max_response_tokens = 250
+token_limit = 4096
+conversation = [system_message]
+
+def manage_conversation_tokens(conversation, max_response_tokens, token_limit):
+    while True:
+        user_input = input("Q: ")
+        conversation.append({"role": "user", "content": user_input})
+
+        conv_tokens = num_tokens_from_messages(conversation, model="gpt-4o")
+
+        # Trim oldest messages (preserve system message)
+        while conv_tokens + max_response_tokens >= token_limit:
+            del conversation[1]  # Remove oldest non-system message
+            conv_tokens = num_tokens_from_messages(conversation, model="gpt-4o")
+
+        response = client.chat.completions.create(
+            model="gpt-4o",
+            messages=conversation,
+            max_tokens=max_response_tokens
+        )
+
+        conversation.append({
+            "role": "assistant",
+            "content": response.choices[0].message.content
+        })
+```
+
+**Alternative strategier:**
+- **Sliding window:** Behold kun N siste turns
+- **Summarization:** Compress old history til summary
+- **Session reset:** Start ny conversation ved token limit
+- **Responses API:** La Azure OpenAI håndtere truncation automatisk
+
+### 3. Space-Efficient Formatting
+
+**Token-ineffektive formater:**
+```json
+{"date": "January 15, 2026"}  // 7 tokens
+{"date": "01/15/2026"}         // 9 tokens (!)
+```
+
+**Token-effektive formater:**
+```
+January 15, 2026               // 5 tokens
+2026-01-15                     // 5 tokens
+
+| Name | Age | Role |          // Tabular > JSON
+| Alice | 30 | Dev |
+```
+
+**Whitespace-regler:**
+- Konsekutive whitespace = separate tokens (waste)
+- Leading space on word = typisk samme token
+- Bruk tabeller over verbose JSON når mulig
+
+### 4. Max Prompt/Completion Tokens (Assistants API)
+
+```python
+run = client.beta.threads.runs.create(
+    thread_id=thread.id,
+    assistant_id=assistant.id,
+    max_prompt_tokens=20000,      # Limit context usage
+    max_completion_tokens=1000,   # Limit output
+    truncation_strategy={
+        "type": "last_messages",
+        "last_messages": 10
+    }
+)
+```
+
+**Anbefalinger:**
+- **File Search:** Min. 20 000 prompt tokens, ideelt 50 000+
+- **Langvarige samtaler:** Fjern `max_prompt_tokens` limit for best quality
+- **Cost-sensitive apps:** Set strict limits + handle `incomplete` status
+
+### 5. Chunking for Embeddings & RAG
+
+**Token-limit per chunk:**
+- `text-embedding-ada-002`: 8 191 tokens
+- `text-embedding-3-small/large`: 8 191 tokens
+
+```python
+from langchain.text_splitter import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
+import tiktoken
+
+tokenizer = tiktoken.get_encoding('cl100k_base')
+
+def tiktoken_len(text):
+    tokens = tokenizer.encode(text, disallowed_special=())
+    return len(tokens)
+
+# Analyze document token distribution
+token_counts = [tiktoken_len(page.page_content) for page in pages]
+print(f"Min: {min(token_counts)}, Avg: {sum(token_counts)/len(token_counts)}, Max: {max(token_counts)}")
+
+# Create chunks with overlap
+text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(
+    chunk_size=1000,           # Target tokens
+    chunk_overlap=200,         # Overlap for context
+    length_function=tiktoken_len
+)
+chunks = text_splitter.split_documents(pages)
+```
+
+### 6. Fine-Tuning Token Accounting
+
+**Training cost formula (SFT/DPO):**
+```
+Cost = # training tokens × # epochs × price per token
+```
+
+**Token validation pre-training:**
+```python
+import json
+import tiktoken
+import numpy as np
+
+encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("o200k_base")
+
+def num_tokens_from_messages(messages, tokens_per_message=3, tokens_per_name=1):
+    num_tokens = 0
+    for message in messages:
+        num_tokens += tokens_per_message
+        for key, value in message.items():
+            num_tokens += len(encoding.encode(value))
+            if key == "name":
+                num_tokens += tokens_per_name
+    num_tokens += 3
+    return num_tokens
+
+# Validate training file
+with open('training_set.jsonl', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
+    dataset = [json.loads(line) for line in f]
+
+total_tokens = [num_tokens_from_messages(ex["messages"]) for ex in dataset]
+print(f"Mean: {np.mean(total_tokens)}, Median: {np.median(total_tokens)}")
+print(f"p5 / p95: {np.quantile(total_tokens, 0.05)}, {np.quantile(total_tokens, 0.95)}")
+```
+
+**Token limits:**
+- `gpt-4o-mini`: Training example max 64 536 tokens, input limit 128 000 tokens
+- Overfør lange eksempler = feil ved training
+- Kostnad: $2 per 1M training tokens (gpt-4.1 global, eksempel)

+## Beslutningsveiledning
+
+### Når skal du prioritere token optimization?
+
+| Scenario | Anbefalt Tiltak | Forventet Besparelse |
+|----------|-----------------|----------------------|
+| **Høyvolum chatbot** (>10K requests/dag) | Prompt caching + conversation trimming | 40-60% input cost |
+| **RAG-applikasjon** | Chunk size optimization + reranking | 30-50% total cost |
+| **Long-context prompts** (>8K tokens) | Prompt caching + structured outputs | 50-90% input cost |
+| **Multi-turn conversations** | Sliding window + summarization | 20-40% total cost |
+| **Batch processing** | Global Standard deployment + compression | 10-30% total cost |
+| **Fine-tuning** | Dataset pruning + epoch optimization | 30-60% training cost |
+
+### Decision Tree: Optimization Strategy
+
+```
+Er prompt >1024 tokens og repetitiv?
+├─ Ja → Implementer prompt caching (automatisk på GPT-4o+)
+│       └─ Strukturer prompt med statisk innhold først
+└─ Nei → Er det multi-turn conversation?
+         ├─ Ja → Implementer conversation history trimming
+         │       └─ Sliding window eller summarization
+         └─ Nei → Er det RAG?
+                  ├─ Ja → Optimaliser chunk size + reranking
+                  │       └─ Bruk strictness parameter
+                  └─ Nei → Er output verbose/unstructured?
+                           ├─ Ja → Bruk structured outputs (JSON schema)
+                           └─ Nei → Bruk space-efficient formatting (tabeller)
+```
+
+### Monitoring & Alerting
+
+**Key metrics:**
+- `prompt_tokens` / `completion_tokens` per request
+- `cached_tokens` (prompt_tokens_details) — cache hit rate
+- Cost per 1K tokens (varierer per model + deployment type)
+- Total daily/monthly token consumption
+
+**Azure Cost Management:**
+- Filtrer på "Meter" for å se input/output tokens separat
+- Filtrer på deployment tags for model-spesifikk cost
+- Sett opp budgets med alerts (90% / 100% thresholds)
+
+---
+
+## Integrasjon med Microsoft-stakken
+
+### Azure OpenAI Service
+
+| Deployment Type | Input Token Pricing | Cached Token Discount | Output Token Pricing |
+|----------------|---------------------|----------------------|---------------------|
+| **Standard (Regional)** | $2.50-$100 per 1M | 50% rabatt | $10-$300 per 1M |
+| **Global Standard** | 10-30% lavere | 50% rabatt | 10-30% lavere |
+| **Provisioned (PTU)** | Inkludert i PTU | Opptil 100% rabatt | Inkludert i PTU |
+
+**Merk:** Priser varierer betydelig per modell (gpt-4o vs. o1 vs. gpt-4.1)
+
+### Azure AI Foundry
+
+**Token Usage Estimation (On Your Data):**
+- Intent prompt: ~1 366 tokens (gjennomsnitt)
+- Generation prompt: ~4 297 tokens (gjennomsnitt)
+- Response: ~111 tokens (gjennomsnitt)
+- Intent output: ~25 tokens (gjennomsnitt)
+- **Total per request:** ~5 800 tokens
+
+**Cost monitoring:**
+1. Foundry portal → Operate → Overview → Estimated cost tile
+2. Build → Models → Monitor tab → Token costs
+3. Azure portal → Cost Management → Group by Meter
+
+### Copilot Studio
+
+- **Token-basert billing** for Generative Answers (Azure OpenAI)
+- **Message-basert billing** for standard topics
+- Token counting via `AI Builder credits` — prompt tokens + image/doc conversions
+
+**Image token conversion:**
+- Low-res (<512×512): 85 tokens flat
+- High-res: Resize to 2048×2048, split into 512×512 tiles, 170 tokens per tile + 85 base
+
+### Power Platform (AI Builder)
+
+```
+Token cost = Prompt tokens + completion tokens + image tokens
+Image tokens (high-res) = (# tiles × 170) + 85
+```
+
+**Optimization:**
+- Resize images før submission for å redusere tiles
+- Bruk "low detail" setting når mulig
+- Cache prompts i Power Automate flows
+
+---
+
+## Offentlig sektor (Norge)
+
+### Compliance & Data Residency
+
+**Token counting = metadata, ikke innhold:**
+- Token-tellingen selv er ikke persondata
+- Loggføring av token counts er OK for kostnadsoppfølging
+- **Unngå:** Logging av faktisk prompt content uten GDPR-vurdering
+
+**Anbefalt praksis:**
+- Aggreger token metrics (daglig/ukentlig totals)
+- Logg kun token counts, ikke text content
+- Bruk Azure Monitor for telemetri (data residency i Norge)
+
+### Kostnadsfordeling (Intern Fakturering)
+
+**Tagging-strategi:**
+```json
+{
+  "tags": {
+    "cost_center": "IT-seksjonen",
+    "project": "Saksbehandling-AI",
+    "environment": "prod"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Azure Cost Management:**
+- Filtrer på tags for per-avdeling/prosjekt cost
+- Eksporter cost data til Excel/Power BI for intern rapportering
+- Bruk budgets med action groups for automatisk varsling
+
+### Transparent kostnadsstyring
+
+**Eksempel: Fylkeskommunal saksbehandling**
+- Estimert 500 saker/dag × 10 000 tokens/sak = 5M tokens/dag
+- Med prompt caching: 2.5M "effective" tokens/dag
+- Kostnad (gpt-4o-mini, $0.15/$0.60 per 1M): ~$1/dag input + $3/dag output = **~$120/måned**
+
+**Budsjettjustering:**
+- Start med conservative estimates (worst case = no caching)
+- Monitor faktisk forbruk over 1-2 måneder
+- Juster deployment type (Standard vs. Provisioned) basert på volum
+
+---
+
+## Kostnad og lisensiering
+
+### Azure OpenAI Pricing (Eksempler, februar 2026)
+
+| Modell | Input (per 1M tokens) | Cached Input | Output (per 1M tokens) | Context Window |
+|--------|-----------------------|--------------|------------------------|----------------|
+| **gpt-4o** | $2.50 | $1.25 | $10.00 | 128K |
+| **gpt-4o-mini** | $0.15 | $0.075 | $0.60 | 128K |
+| **o1** | $15.00 | $7.50 | $60.00 | 200K |
+| **o3-mini** | $1.10 | $0.55 | $4.40 | 200K |
+| **gpt-4.1** | $2.00 | $1.00 | $8.00 | 128K |
+
+**Merk:** Priser er illustrative. Sjekk alltid [offisiell pricing page](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/cognitive-services/openai-service/).
+
+### Fine-Tuning Costs
+
+**Training (SFT/DPO):**
+- Global Standard: $2 per 1M tokens (gpt-4.1, eksempel)
+- Developer (spot): 50% rabatt, kan bli paused/resumed
+
+**Hosting:**
+- $1.70/time per deployment (Standard/Global Standard)
+- Påløper selv om modellen ikke brukes
+- **VIKTIG:** Slett ubrukte deployments for å unngå "idle hosting cost"
+
+**Inference:**
+- Samme per-token pris som base model + hosting fee
+- Developer tier: Ingen hosting fee, men deployment auto-deletes etter 24 timer
+
+### Provisioned Throughput (PTU)
+
+- **Flat månedlig kostnad** basert på antall PTUs
+- Input/output tokens inkludert (ingen per-token cost)
+- Prompt caching: Opptil 100% rabatt (effektivt "gratis" cached tokens)
+- **Break-even:** Typisk ~50M tokens/måned (varierer per modell)
+
+---
+
+## For arkitekten (Cosmo)
+
+### Når anbefale token optimization?
+
+**Always recommend:**
+- Prompt caching for repetitive prompts (>1024 tokens)
+- Conversation history management for chatbots
+- Token monitoring/budgets for alle produksjonsmiljøer
+
+**Situational recommend:**
+- **High-volume (>1M requests/måned):** Aggressive optimization (chunking, compression, structured outputs)
+- **Low-volume (<100K requests/måned):** Basic optimization (caching, trimming), fokus på function over cost
+- **Fine-tuning:** Dataset pruning + epoch optimization alltid (training cost accumulates fast)
+
+### Spørsmål å stille kunden
+
+1. **Volum:** Forventet antall requests per dag/måned?
+2. **Prompt-lengde:** Gjennomsnittlig antall tokens i prompts?
+3. **Repetisjon:** Hvor mye av prompten er statisk vs. dynamisk?
+4. **Conversation length:** Multi-turn (chat) eller single-shot (completion)?
+5. **Response length:** Trengs lange svar, eller kan det begrenses?
+6. **Budsjett:** Er det hard cap på månedlige AI-kostnader?
+
+### Implementation Checklist
+
+- [ ] Implementer tiktoken/Microsoft.ML.Tokenizers for telemetri
+- [ ] Strukturer prompts med static content først (for caching)
+- [ ] Sett opp Azure Cost Management budgets + alerts
+- [ ] Implementer conversation trimming (hvis multi-turn)
+- [ ] Logg `cached_tokens` metric for cache hit rate monitoring
+- [ ] Vurder Provisioned deployment hvis >50M tokens/måned
+- [ ] Dokumenter token-fordeling i ADR (Architecture Decision Record)
+
+### Fallgruver å unngå
+
+| Fallgruve | Konsekvens | Løsning |
+|-----------|------------|---------|
+| **Ingen token monitoring** | Ukontrollerte kostnader | Sett opp Cost Management alerts ASAP |
+| **Ubrukte fine-tuned deployments** | $1.70/time hosting × 24 × 30 = $1 224/måned idle | Auto-delete etter N dager uten bruk |
+| **Variasjon i første 1024 tokens** | Cache miss = full input cost | Flytt dynamic content til slutten av prompt |
+| **Over-chunking i RAG** | Mange små chunks = mange embeddings calls | Optimaliser chunk size (500-1500 tokens sweet spot) |
+| **Manglende output limits** | Ukontrollerte completion tokens | Sett `max_tokens` parameter |
+
+### Code Snippet: Production Token Telemetry
+
+```python
+import tiktoken
+from azure.monitor.opentelemetry import configure_azure_monitor
+from opentelemetry import metrics
+
+# Configure Azure Monitor
+configure_azure_monitor(connection_string="InstrumentationKey=...")
+
+meter = metrics.get_meter(__name__)
+token_counter = meter.create_counter("aoai.tokens", description="Token usage")
+cost_counter = meter.create_counter("aoai.cost_usd", description="Estimated cost")
+
+encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("o200k_base")
+
+def track_token_usage(prompt, completion, model="gpt-4o"):
+    prompt_tokens = len(encoding.encode(prompt))
+    completion_tokens = len(encoding.encode(completion))
+
+    # Log to Azure Monitor
+    token_counter.add(prompt_tokens, {"type": "input", "model": model})
+    token_counter.add(completion_tokens, {"type": "output", "model": model})
+
+    # Estimate cost (example rates)
+    input_cost = (prompt_tokens / 1_000_000) * 2.50
+    output_cost = (completion_tokens / 1_000_000) * 10.00
+    cost_counter.add(input_cost + output_cost, {"model": model})
+```
