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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00201 | $0.01822 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00101 | $0.00911 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00040 | $0.00364 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00182 |
Grade A, and why
aspire 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.

Aspire Skill
Use this skill when the task is about operating an Aspire distributed application through the Aspire CLI rather than falling back to ad-hoc dotnet, docker, or shell workflows.
Resources are typically defined in an AppHost such as, AppHost.cs, apphost.ts, or AppHost/AppHost.csproj (Program.cs).
Use this skill for
- Starting, restarting, and stopping AppHosts with
aspire startandaspire stop - Initializing Aspire in an existing app with
aspire init(drops skeleton files; use theaspireifyskill to complete wiring) - Inspecting resources, logs, traces, and docs
- Adding integrations with
aspire add - Recovering missing TypeScript AppHost support files with
aspire restore - Discovering the correct frontend URL before a Playwright handoff
- Understanding unfamiliar Aspire AppHost APIs before editing C# or TypeScript AppHosts
- Managing AppHost secrets and CLI config
- Publishing and deploying Aspire apps, including single named steps with
aspire do - Adding custom dashboard or resource commands with docs-backed AppHost patterns
Do not use this skill for
- Non-Aspire .NET applications
- Container-only workflows that do not involve an Aspire AppHost
- Replacing normal build and test commands when the task is just compiling code or running unit tests
Default workflow
- Confirm that the workspace is an Aspire app and identify the AppHost.
- Start the app with
aspire start. Use--isolatedin git worktrees or whenever shared local state would be risky. - Use
aspire wait <resource>before interacting with a resource that needs to be healthy. - Inspect state with
aspire describe, then useaspire otel logs,aspire logs,aspire otel traces, andaspire exportbefore making code changes. Display returned data using the formatting rules in references/monitoring.md. - Before adding an integration, introducing a custom dashboard/resource command, or using an unfamiliar AppHost API, use
aspire docs search <topic>andaspire docs get <slug>for workflow guidance, then useaspire docs api search <query> --language csharp|typescriptandaspire docs api get <id>when you need the API reference entry itself. - Re-run
aspire startafter AppHost changes. In git worktrees, re-runaspire start --isolatedinstead of switching toaspire run.

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.

aspire is a skill published in the GitHub repository SSWConsulting/SSW.VerticalSliceArchitecture (398 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 201 tokens to every session and 1,822 once invoked, about $0.0010 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.
