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

CrestApps.AgentSkills copilot-instructions.md 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 17d 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.

Project Overview

CrestApps.AgentSkills contains shared AI agent skills and MCP tooling for .NET applications and Orchard Core projects.

  • Target Framework: .NET 10 (net10.0)
  • SDK Version: .NET 10.0.100 (see global.json)
  • Package Management: Central Package Management via Directory.Packages.props
  • Skill source roots:
    • src/CrestApps.AgentSkills/orchardcore/ - framework-only Orchard Core skills
    • src/CrestApps.AgentSkills/crestapps-orchardcore/ - CrestApps.OrchardCore module skills
    • src/CrestApps.AgentSkills/crestapps-core/ - direct CrestApps.Core skills

Four Source Projects

  1. CrestApps.AgentSkills - Skill content container

    • Contains canonical skill source roots under orchardcore/, crestapps-orchardcore/, and crestapps-core/
    • Not packable — purely a source container referenced by the other packages and plugin bundles

  2. CrestApps.AgentSkills.Mcp - Generic MCP engine

    • Framework-agnostic skill parser and MCP provider
    • Supports .md (front-matter) and .yaml/.yml skill formats
    • Key interfaces: IAgentSkillFilesStore, IMcpPromptProvider, IMcpResourceProvider
    • Key implementations: DefaultAgentSkillFilesStore, SkillPromptProvider, SkillResourceProvider
    • Key parsers: SkillFrontMatterParser, SkillYamlParser, SkillFileParser
    • No bundled skills — expects consumer to provide skill directory

  3. CrestApps.AgentSkills.OrchardCore - Dev-time skill distributor

    • Development dependency only (IncludeBuildOutput=false, DevelopmentDependency=true)
    • Uses MSBuild .targets to copy both orchardcore/ and crestapps-orchardcore/ to solution root .agents/skills/ on first build
    • No runtime code — purely for local AI authoring

  4. CrestApps.AgentSkills.Mcp.OrchardCore - Runtime MCP server for Orchard Core

    • Extends CrestApps.AgentSkills.Mcp with Orchard Core–specific convenience wrappers
    • Bundles both orchardcore/ and crestapps-orchardcore/, packed under skills/ and copied to the consuming app's build and publish output at .agents/skills/ by a buildTransitive targets file (not contentFiles, which NuGet drops for transitive references)
    • Entry point: OrchardCoreSkillMcpExtensions (AddOrchardCoreSkills, AddOrchardCoreAgentSkillServices)
    • Services registered as singletons for caching

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.
