Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00045 | $0.01222 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00489 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00244 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00122 |
Grade A, and why
check-prereq-agent-dotnet scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Check Prerequisites for .NET Agents
Overview
This skill checks whether all prerequisites are installed for building durable AI agents in .NET. Run it only when you ask for it, for example before using the create-agent-dotnet skill. It is never run automatically as a pre-step.
On naming. Dapr Agents is a Python-only framework; there is no Dapr Agents SDK for .NET. The .NET path is Microsoft Agent Framework (
Microsoft.Agents.AI,Microsoft.Extensions.AI) executed durably on Dapr Workflow by theDiagrid.AI.Microsoft.AgentFrameworkpackage. Every agent turn — each LLM call and each tool call — becomes a workflow activity, which is where the durability comes from. TheDaprin the .NET type names (AddDaprAgents,IDaprAgentInvoker) refers to that workflow runtime, not to the Python framework.
Prerequisites
The following must be installed:
- .NET 10 SDK
- C# LSP Plugin
- Docker or Podman
- Dapr CLI (version 1.18+)
- At least one LLM provider reachable by a Dapr conversation component:
OPENAI_API_KEY,ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,GOOGLE_API_KEY(Gemini viaconversation.googleai), or a local Ollama instance onhttp://localhost:11434
Prerequisite Checks
Run ALL of these checks. Check steps 2–6 in parallel. Track which checks pass and which fail.
Step 1: Detect Operating System
Read the file at ../dapr-shared/prereq-detect-os.md and follow those instructions.
Step 2: Check the C# LSP plugin
Read the file at ../dapr-shared/prereq-check-csharp-lsp.md and follow those instructions.
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.

check-prereq-agent-dotnet is a skill published in the GitHub repository diagrid-labs/dapr-skills (13 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 1,222 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
