Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00081 | $0.01668 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00041 | $0.00834 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00334 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00167 |
Grade A, and why
dotnet-init 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 3d 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.

/dotnet-init
What
Interactively initializes a .NET project for use with dotnet-claude-kit. Detects the project type, asks targeted questions about architecture and tech stack, then generates a fully customized CLAUDE.md in the project root.
No manual template copying required.
When
- Starting a new .NET project with Claude Code
- Adding dotnet-claude-kit to an existing project
- "init project", "setup project", "generate CLAUDE.md", "configure for dotnet-claude-kit"
How
Step 1: Detect or Ask Project Type
Analyze the current directory to determine if this is an existing or greenfield project:
→ Look for .slnx / .sln files
→ If found, scan .csproj files for SDK type:
- Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web → web-api or blazor-app
- Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Worker → worker-service
- Microsoft.NET.Sdk → class-library
- Multiple projects with inter-module references → modular-monolith
- If ambiguous, ask the user
→ If NO solution/project found (greenfield):
- Ask: "What are you building?"
- REST API / microservice → web-api
- Blazor application → blazor-app
- Background worker / queue processor → worker-service
- NuGet package / shared library → class-library
- Multi-module system → modular-monolith
- Ask: "Project name?"
- Scaffold the solution structure:
- dotnet new sln -n ProjectName --format slnx (modern XML solution format)
- dotnet new webapi / worker / classlib as appropriate
- Set up Directory.Build.props with .NET 10 defaults
- Create src/ and tests/ folder structure
Step 2: Architecture Questionnaire
Load the architecture-advisor skill and ask targeted questions:
- Domain complexity — CRUD-heavy, moderate business rules, or rich domain?
- Team size — Solo, small team, or large team?
- Module boundaries — Single deployable or multiple bounded contexts?
- Existing patterns — (existing projects only) Detect conventions via
convention-learnerskill
→ Recommend: VSA, Clean Architecture, DDD, or Modular Monolith with rationale.
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.

dotnet-init is a skill published in the GitHub repository codewithmukesh/dotnet-claude-kit (689 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 81 tokens to every session and 1,668 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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.
