designer-diagnostics

designer-diagnostics is a skill for Claude Code from dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-substance3d-designer. It costs 28 tokens per session (196 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only diagnostic skill for checking whether the active Substance 3D Designer application can answer a typed readiness test. Substance 3D Designer is a tool for building procedural materials and node-based graphs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify that a live Designer instance is responding and ready for adapter operations.
Why use it?
It confirms that Designer can run a tool on its host application’s main thread before other work begins. It avoids making or changing a graph during the check.

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

designer-diagnostics 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/ping.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

What it actually says

Designer Diagnostics

Use the read-only ping to prove that a live Designer application can execute a typed tool on its host main thread. This skill never authors or changes a graph.

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
