In plain words
What is it for?

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

edit-app 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,206 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plugin check: Run node "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-version.js" - if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding.

Shared instructions: shared-instructions.md — read first.

Edit App (/edit-app)

Post-generation editor for an existing mobile app. native-app-plan.md remains the source of truth, but the default outcome is a fixed generated app, not a plan-only diff. After the user approves the plan delta, continue into Dataverse/native/design/screen mutations, run verification, update memory-bank.md, and regenerate the static preview when UI changed.

Use --plan-only only when the user explicitly asks to update planning docs without changing app code. Normal follow-up prompts in Copilot Chat Agent mode should apply the app change end to end.

Edit documentation protocol

Keep two HTML files current during every edit:

  • <edit-temp-dir>/edit-app-progress.html shows the live operation checklist.
  • docs/create-app-plan.html remains the living description of the app.

Both are best-effort documentation. A rendering failure does not authorize a mutation, cancel an approval gate, or turn a failed verification into success.

Progress page

As soon as Step 0 resolves working_dir, before inferred-plan sync or the first progress write, ask app-docs.js for a namespaced directory inside the user's OS temp directory:

node "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/app-docs.js" --working-dir '<working_dir>' temp

Use the returned directory, progress, progressHtml, and sync paths for the rest of the run. Do not create progress files inside the project. Create <edit-temp-dir>/edit-app-progress.json with one row per operation this edit will run. Use stable IDs such as inspect, impact, plan, approve, save-plan, data, native, design, screens, verify, preview, and sync-plan. Omit operations that do not apply. Each row has id, label, status (pending, active, waiting, done, skipped, or failed), and an optional note. Add a top-level changes array for the Changes tab. Keep it empty during initial inspection. After Step 2, every entry requires kind, title, rationale, and optional detail. Use kind: general for text-only changes. Use structured diagram data for data-model and screen changes:

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.
