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 | $0.00062 | $0.01390 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00556 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00278 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00139 |
Grade B, and why
dotnet-cloc scanned grade B 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 1mo 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.
- Debian or Ubuntu: `sudo apt install cloc` This is a copy
95% identical to mcaf-dotnet-cloc — 8 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.

CLOC for .NET Repositories
Trigger On
- the repo wants
cloc - the team needs repeatable LOC, language, or branch diff statistics for a .NET repo
- the user asks about C# codebase size, solution composition, or code-count deltas between refs
Value
- produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
- reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
- leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer
Do Not Use For
- judging developer productivity from raw LOC
- replacing behavioral verification, architecture review, or complexity analysis
- counting generated or vendored files without an explicit reason
Inputs
- the nearest
AGENTS.md - target repository, solution, project, or subtree
- the question being answered: footprint, composition, diff, or trend
Quick Start
- Read the nearest
AGENTS.mdand confirm scope and constraints. - Run this skill's
Workflowthrough theRalph Loopuntil outcomes are acceptable. - Return the
Required Result Formatwith concrete artifacts and verification evidence.
Workflow
- Choose the counting mode deliberately:
--vcs=gitfor repo-respecting counts- path-based counting for bounded folders
--git --diff BASE HEADfor change deltas
- Prefer
.NET-relevant views first:- C# footprint
- test versus production footprint
- solution language mix such as C#, Razor, XML, JSON, YAML, and MSBuild files
- Exclude noise before trusting the numbers:
binobj.git- vendored or generated folders when they are not part of the decision
- Use machine-readable output when the numbers feed docs, CI, or follow-up automation:
--json--csv--yaml--md
- Treat
clocas a sizing and comparison tool, not as evidence that the design is good. - When using diff mode, compare named refs that match the review question:
origin/main..HEAD- release branch versus main
- before and after a refactor
- After any code cleanup based on
clocfindings, run the repo's normal quality pass.
What ships with it
4 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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 143 lines · 62 tokens per session scan B 3a03d97131e3
dotnet-cloc is a skill published in the GitHub repository managedcode/MCPGateway (5 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,390 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). It is 95% identical to mcaf-dotnet-cloc, differing in 8 lines, and is treated as a copy.
