.NET MAUI is a C# and XAML framework for building native mobile and desktop applications from one shared codebase. Developers use it to create apps for Android, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Windows. The catalogue entries provide skills, instructions, and agents for working with .NET MAUI.

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 | $0.02026 | $0.02026 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00810 | $0.00810 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00405 | $0.00405 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00203 | $0.00203 |
Grade A, and why
maui ci-copilot-pipeline-security.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 10d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CI Copilot pipeline — security rules
This pipeline runs untrusted PR code on AzDO agents with these tokens in scope:
GH_COMMENT_TOKEN/GH_TOKEN—maui-botPAT (post comments, labels, reviews on any PR)COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN— Copilot CLI install token- AzDO GitHub service-connection PAT — repo contents, PRs, checks, workflows
Once the PR is merged into the worktree, the author controls every .csproj, Directory.Build.targets, source generator, analyzer, test, .ps1, and .yml the pipeline subsequently runs.
The hosted /review gate path runs only Setup, Gate, fresh-agent publication,
and lock cleanup. Gate uses the immutable local snapshot with no GitHub/Copilot
token in its task environment. The existing hosted /review retains the full
review phases; the pipeline's GateOnly parameter defaults to false and selects
the separate gate stages at compile time only when explicitly requested.
Rules
-
Per-task
env:scoping. Only put tokens in tasks that need them. The Copilot-agent task getsCOPILOT_GITHUB_TOKENonly — neverGH_TOKEN. Posting tasks run in separate Microsoft-hosted jobs and receiveGH_COMMENT_TOKENplus only the explicitly scoped publication token they need. Pass--secret-env-vars=GH_TOKEN,GITHUB_TOKEN,COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKENto the Copilot CLI. -
persistCredentials: falseon everycheckout: self. Default checkout writes the service-connection PAT into.git/configasextraheader, readable by any subprocess. Do not extract or repurpose that checkout credential for API publication; use an explicitly scoped task secret instead. -
Trusted-copy scripts before merging the PR. Setup copies
.github/scripts,.github/skills, andeng/scriptsto$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/trusted-github/before switching branches or merging the PR. Gate and CopilotReview invoke scripts through$ScriptsDir,$SkillsDir, and$EngScriptsDir, never from the merged worktree. New scripts used by those phases must be added to the Setup copy block.
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.

maui ci-copilot-pipeline-security.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository dotnet/maui (23,322 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 2,026 tokens to every session, about $0.0081 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
