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 | $0.00044 | $0.01105 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00553 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00221 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00111 |
Grade A, and why
dotnet 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to dotnet — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

.NET Router Skill
Trigger On
- the user asks for general
.NEThelp without naming a narrower framework or tool - implementing, debugging, reviewing, or refactoring C# or
.NETcode in a repo with multiple app models or frameworks - deciding which
.NETskill should own a task before editing code - tasks that combine platform work with testing, quality, architecture, setup, or migration decisions
Workflow
- Detect the real stack first:
- target frameworks and SDK version
LangVersion- project SDKs and workload hints
- hosting model and app entry points
- test framework and runner
- analyzers, formatters, coverage, and CI quality gates
- Route to the narrowest platform skill as soon as the stack is known:
- Web:
dotnet-aspnet-core,dotnet-minimal-apis,dotnet-web-api,dotnet-blazor,dotnet-signalr,dotnet-grpc - Cloud and hosting:
dotnet-aspire,dotnet-azure-functions,dotnet-worker-services - Desktop and client:
dotnet-maui,dotnet-wpf,dotnet-winforms,dotnet-winui - Data and distributed:
dotnet-entity-framework-core,dotnet-entity-framework6,dotnet-orleans - AI and agentic:
dotnet-semantic-kernel,dotnet-microsoft-extensions-ai,dotnet-microsoft-agent-framework,dotnet-mlnet,dotnet-mixed-reality - Legacy:
dotnet-legacy-aspnet,dotnet-wcf,dotnet-workflow-foundation
- Web:
- Route cross-cutting work to the companion skill instead of keeping it inside generic
.NETadvice:- project bootstrap or repo shape:
dotnet-project-setup,dotnet-architecture - frontend asset analysis in mixed
.NETplus Node repos:dotnet-eslint,dotnet-stylelint,dotnet-htmlhint,dotnet-webhint,dotnet-biome,dotnet-sonarjs,dotnet-metalint,dotnet-chous - code review:

dotnet-tunit,dotnet-xunit,dotnet-mstest - format, analyzers, coverage, and CI:
dotnet-format,dotnet-code-analysis,dotnet-quality-ci,dotnet-coverlet,dotnet-reportgenerator - maintainability and architecture rules:
dotnet-complexity,dotnet-netarchtest,dotnet-archunitnet
- project bootstrap or repo shape:
- If more than one specialized skill applies, prefer the one closest to the user-visible behavior first, then pull in the quality or tooling skill second.
- Do not stop at this skill once a narrower match exists. This skill should classify and hand off, not become a generic dumping ground.
- After code changes, validate with the repository's actual build, test, and quality workflow instead of generic
.NETcommands.
What ships with it
3 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.
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.
- yesterday First seen · 74 lines · 44 tokens per session scan A 0367d30c8a45
dotnet is a skill published in the GitHub repository managedcode/MCPGateway (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 1,105 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to dotnet, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
