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

download-marketplace-content 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 5d 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.

Download, Install and Update Marketplace Content

This skill covers the full lifecycle of Mendix Marketplace content (modules and widgets) from the command line: discover → download → install → check for local edits → update. These are CLI commands, not MDL statements.

When to Use This Skill

  • User wants to add a marketplace module or widget to a project
  • User wants to upgrade a module that is already installed
  • User asks whether a marketplace module has been edited locally, or what an upgrade would overwrite
  • User asks to download a specific .mpk (e.g. for CI, or to import in Studio Pro)
  • User asks which versions of a marketplace item are compatible with their Mendix version
  • User reports CE0463 or CE6087 right after installing or updating a module

Prerequisites: Authenticate

Marketplace access needs a Mendix Personal Access Token (PAT), created at https://user-settings.mendix.com/ (Developer Settings → Personal Access Tokens).

mxcli auth login                 # interactive prompt for the PAT
mxcli auth login --token <PAT>   # non-interactive (CI)
export MENDIX_PAT=<PAT>          # or via environment
mxcli auth status                # verify it validates

Credentials are stored at ~/.mxcli/auth.json (mode 0600).

Module installs also need the mxbuild toolchain for the project's Mendix version: mxcli setup mxbuild -p app.mpr.

Step 1 — Discover

mxcli marketplace search "database connector"   # find content by name/publisher
mxcli marketplace info 2888                      # details for a content id
mxcli marketplace versions 2888                  # available versions
mxcli marketplace versions 2888 --min-mendix 10.24.0   # compatible versions only

The numeric content id (from search/info) is what every other command takes.

Search caching. The Content API has no server-side search, so the first search fetches the whole catalog (tens of seconds) and caches it under ~/.mxcli/ for 24h; later searches are instant. If the first search seems slow, it is scanning the catalog — let it finish. Pass --refresh to bypass the cache (e.g. for a brand-new module). If search returns nothing, the content may be private or listed under a different name — look it up by id with info <id> (ids come from the marketplace URL .../link/component/<id>).

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.
