    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

creating-wpf-dialogs 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 9d 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.

3. Custom Modal Dialog

3.1 Dialog Window XAML

<Window x:Class="MyApp.Dialogs.SettingsDialog"

        WindowStartupLocation="CenterOwner"
        ResizeMode="NoResize"
        ShowInTaskbar="False">
    <Grid Margin="20">
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
        </Grid.RowDefinitions>

        <!-- Content -->
        <StackPanel Grid.Row="0">
            <Label Content="User Name:"/>
            <TextBox x:Name="UserNameTextBox" Margin="0,5,0,15"/>
            <CheckBox x:Name="EnableNotificationsCheckBox"
                      Content="Enable notifications"/>
        </StackPanel>

        <!-- Dialog buttons -->
        <StackPanel Grid.Row="1" Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Right">
            <Button Content="OK" Width="80" Margin="0,0,10,0"
                    Click="OkButton_Click" IsDefault="True"/>
            <Button Content="Cancel" Width="80"
                    Click="CancelButton_Click" IsCancel="True"/>

What ships with it

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.
