devflow-automation

devflow-automation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dotnet/maui-labs. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,230 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of shortcuts for changing the state of a .NET MAUI app, such as logging in or opening a particular screen. The app must explicitly expose these shortcuts for automation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Logging in test users, adding seed data, changing feature flags, cleaning up state, and reaching deep screens.
Why use it?
It avoids repeating setup steps or manually navigating through the app during testing and development.

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

devflow-automation 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.

DevFlow Automation - Actions

DevFlow Actions are named shortcuts that a .NET MAUI app explicitly exposes for automation with [DevFlowAction]. Use them to reach useful app states quickly, such as logging in a test user, seeding data, toggling a feature flag, or navigating to a deep screen.

Actions are opt-in. DevFlow does not expose arbitrary reflection invoke; if you need a new shortcut, add an attributed method in app debug/test code, let Hot Reload apply it, then list and invoke the action.

Optional Session Feedback Nudge

If action discovery or invocation exposed repeated DevFlow friction, missing observability, or several workarounds to reach app state, ask whether the user wants to run maui-devflow-session-review to summarize product feedback. Do not run it automatically.

Start by Listing Actions

Always check for available actions early in a DevFlow session:

maui_list_actions

Look for action names and descriptions that match your goal. Common patterns:

  • login-* for authentication shortcuts
  • seed-* for data population
  • navigate-* for deep links or screen setup
  • set-* for feature flags or configuration
  • reset-* for state cleanup

Invoke an Action

Arguments are passed as a JSON array in parameter order. Omit trailing optional parameters to use their defaults.

maui_invoke_action actionName="login-test-user"
maui_invoke_action actionName="login-test-user" argsJson='["[email protected]", "secret"]'
maui_invoke_action actionName="seed-catalog" argsJson='[100]'

After invoking an action, verify the state with a screenshot, tree query, or other DevFlow tools:

maui_screenshot

Hot Reload Workflow

If no useful action exists and you can edit the app:

  1. Add a public static method annotated with [DevFlowAction].
  2. Add [Description] to each parameter so agents know what to pass.
  3. Save and let C# Hot Reload apply the change.
  4. Call maui_list_actions again.
  5. Invoke the new action with maui_invoke_action.

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.

devflow-automation is a skill published in the GitHub repository dotnet/maui-labs (213 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 1,230 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
