cratis-chronicle-client-dotnet

cratis-chronicle-client-dotnet is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cratis/AI. It costs 123 tokens per session (5,214 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to connecting a standalone .NET application to a Chronicle server. It covers creating the client, appending events, and discovering event handlers and read-model components in console apps, workers, and ASP.NET applications.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add Chronicle event storage and observation to a .NET service, worker, console program, or ASP.NET host.
Why use it?
It explains the lower-level client setup when the application is not using Cratis Arc to configure Chronicle. This avoids treating an SDK connection as if it were an Arc integration.

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

cratis-chronicle-client-dotnet 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 today.

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 — 434 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

The Chronicle client for .NET

Cratis.Chronicle is a standalone client SDK. A console app, a worker, or a service constructs a client, asks it for an event store, and appends or observes. There is no host requirement and no application architecture imposed.

This is not the Arc integration. In an Arc application, Chronicle is wired in for you and commands return events that Arc appends. Everything below is the layer underneath: what an application that is not Arc has to do itself.

Verified product sources

This skill is verified against the Cratis/Chronicle repository at tag v17.0.1, whose client sources are byte-identical to 16.45.2 for every public type cited here except the compatibility check noted below.

Package Line Purpose
Cratis.Chronicle 17.x ChronicleClient, IEventStore, [EventType], observers
Cratis.Chronicle.Connections 17.x ChronicleConnectionString, connection lifecycle
Cratis.Chronicle.AspNetCore 17.x ASP.NET Core wiring, header/subdomain namespace resolvers
Cratis.Chronicle.Testing 17.x in-process scenarios
Cratis.Chronicle.CodeAnalysis 17.x the analyzers, a separate opt-in package

Take the exact version from nuget.org. The version in source is a 1.0.0 placeholder injected at pack time (Source/Directory.Build.props), so the repository never carries the real number. Reverify before claiming support for a version you have not checked.

Which package

dotnet add package Cratis.Chronicle              # console / worker service
dotnet add package Cratis.Chronicle.AspNetCore   # ASP.NET Core

Cratis.Chronicle.CodeAnalysis is not pulled in by Cratis.Chronicle. Add it deliberately — it is what warns about the mistakes an event model makes silently, such as a nullable event property.

Connecting

The smallest real thing

using Cratis.Chronicle;
using Cratis.Chronicle.Connections;

using var client = new ChronicleClient(ChronicleConnectionString.Development);
var eventStore = await client.GetEventStore("<EventStoreName>");

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.
