DART is an open-source C++23 physics engine that simulates the movement and interactions of articulated rigid-body systems for robotics, animation, and machine learning. Researchers and developers use it for kinematics, dynamics, collision handling, constraints, and loading robot models, with C++ and Python interfaces. The catalogue add-ons support workflows built around this engine.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00025 | $0.00690 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00345 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00138 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00069 |
Grade A, and why
dart-downstream-fix 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 yesterday.
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 — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
dart-downstream-fix
Use this skill in Codex to run the DART dart-downstream-fix workflow. The editable
workflow source lives in .claude/commands/; this file is its generated adapter
in the shared .agents/skills/ catalog.
Invocation
- Claude Code:
/dart-downstream-fix <arguments> - Codex:
$dart-downstream-fix <arguments>
Treat the text after the skill name as $ARGUMENTS. When the workflow
references $1, $2, etc., map those to the positional values supplied by the
user.
Command Body
Fix downstream-reported DART issue: $ARGUMENTS
Required Reading
@AGENTS.md @docs/onboarding/contributing.md @docs/onboarding/ci-cd.md
When To Use
Use for downstream issues in gz-physics, Gazebo, or gz-sim that trace back to DART behavior: crashes, assertions, NaN/Inf propagation, missing validation, or DART performance regressions.
Workflow
If the downstream symptom depends on 3D structure or behavior, route through
dart-verify-sim: text oracle plus assessed visual evidence, or a recorded
exception.
- Read the downstream issue, logs, stack traces, and reproduction steps.
- Identify the DART API, component, and invalid usage pattern involved.
- Search for related validation and recovery patterns in DART.
- Plan the smallest fix and the regression test location.
- Decide whether the bug applies to the active release line. For applicable
bug fixes, implement on the active DART 6 LTS branch first, then cherry-pick
or reapply to
mainfor DART 7:- branch:
fix/<downstream-project>-<issue-number>-<brief-description>-6-lts - add a regression test that reproduces the downstream symptom
- keep the fix minimal; no unrelated refactors
- branch:
- Run
pixi run lintand the relevant tests perdocs/ai/verification.md. - Ask for explicit maintainer/user approval before pushing or creating PRs. After approval, create the release-branch PR with the branch-matching DART 6.x release milestone and reference the downstream issue.
- Create the matching
mainPR with milestoneDART 7.0; adapt API differences if needed.
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.

dart-downstream-fix is a skill published in the GitHub repository dartsim/dart (1,202 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed BSD-2-Clause. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 690 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-01.

testing
Skill validation framework PLUS daily test-suite health and regression intelligence. Validates skill conformance (frontmatter, manifest coverage, resolver coverage). Runs the project test suite in tiered phases (unit / evals / integration / system health), classifies failures, and produces a regression-aware report.

Verify that a change really works before you claim completion.
detect-static-dependencies
Scan C# source files for hard-to-test static dependencies — DateTime.Now/UtcNow, File., Directory., Environment., HttpClient, Console., Process., and other untestable statics. Produces a ranked report of static call sites by frequency. USE FOR: find untestable statics, scan for static dependencies, testability audit…
experiment-iterative-coder
Iterative code refinement through plan → code → evaluate → refine cycles. Runs lint checks (ruff), tests (pytest), and structured self-evaluation each cycle, then diagnoses failures and refines. Decomposes complex tasks into sequential phases, iterates up to 3 times per phase (10 total). Use when: the main agent…
