devexpress-winforms-pivot-grid

devexpress-winforms-pivot-grid is a skill for Claude Code from DevExpress/agent-skills. It costs 80 tokens per session (3,187 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to DevExpress WinForms PivotGridControl, which summarizes data across row and column categories like an Excel PivotTable. It supports fields for rows, columns, values, and filters.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create cross-tab reports, grouped totals, filters, calculated fields, sorting, conditional formatting, and summaries from sources such as lists, database data, OLAP cubes, or Excel files.
Why use it?
It helps turn a large set of records into grouped summaries without manually building every total. It also covers choosing the data connection and deciding how fields and calculations should be arranged.

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

devexpress-winforms-pivot-grid 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 229 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DevExpress WinForms Pivot Grid (PivotGridControl)

PivotGridControl (namespace DevExpress.XtraPivotGrid) is a cross-tabulation control that summarizes bound data across row and column dimensions — like an Excel PivotTable. Fields are assigned to four areas (Row, Column, Data, Filter); the control computes summaries at every intersection.

Before You Start — Ask the Developer

If the host agent has a structured question-asking tool available, use it to ask these questions one at a time with clear options — for example, Claude Code's AskUserQuestion tool or GitHub Copilot's askQuestions tool. If no such tool is available, ask the questions directly in the chat response before generating code.

  1. Data source? In-memory List<T>/DataTable, EF/EF Core, an OLAP cube (SSAS), or an Excel file? This decides the binding approach (see the Decision Guide).
  2. Which fields go where? Which columns become Row / Column / Data / Filter fields, and which need calculated or grouped bindings (ExpressionDataBinding, GroupInterval)?
  3. Summaries? Default Sum, or other SummaryType / custom summaries? Any % of total / running totals?
  4. Layout & interactivity? Should end users rearrange fields (Customization Form), or is the layout fixed in code?
  5. Formatting? Cell number formats, conditional formatting (FormatRules: bars/scales/icons), and appearance/skin requirements?
  6. Scale & responsiveness? Large in-memory data → Optimized engine + UseAsyncMode. Large database table → server mode (EntityServerModeSource) so aggregation runs in SQL.
  7. Persistence? Save/restore the layout (SaveLayoutToXml / RestoreLayoutFromXml)?

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.
