These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

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

tia-csharp-common 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.

TIA Portal Openness C# — Common Foundation

Source: TIA Portal Openness General Functions Manual (03/2026, V21); V21 IntelliSense XML documentation files (PublicAPI\V21\net48*.xml)


V21 modular assembly architecture

V21 splits the API across multiple DLLs instead of a single Siemens.Engineering.dll. Every project needs Siemens.Engineering.Base.dll; add domain DLLs as required. Referencing the wrong DLL (or omitting one) causes TypeLoadException at runtime.

Full mapping: See references/assembly-namespace-map.md for the V21 namespace → DLL → domain skill table, cross-assembly warnings, and csproj patterns.

Namespaces by assembly

Only import what is actually used. The list below covers the most commonly needed namespaces. The mapping file summarizes the XML-documented namespaces across all 16 installed V21 PublicAPI DLLs.

Siemens.Engineering.Base.dll (always required):

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.
