aspireify

aspireify is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thangchung/agent-engineering-experiment. It costs 251 tokens per session (4,557 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A workflow for connecting an Aspire AppHost to an application. Aspire is a .NET tool for describing and running applications made of multiple services.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps scan a project, define its service and dependency graph, connect Aspire defaults and OpenTelemetry, edit the AppHost, and verify it with aspire start.
Why use it?
It turns the starter AppHost skeleton into a resource setup based on the repository, while avoiding edits to generated files that would be overwritten.

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 C, and why

aspireify scanned grade C with 2 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 330 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Aspireify

One-time wiring skill. aspire init drops a skeleton; aspireify turns that skeleton into a working AppHost by scanning the repo, proposing a resource graph, editing the AppHost, wiring Aspire.ServiceDefaults, and validating end to end. Self-deactivates after a clean aspire start. Aligned with Aspire 13.4 guidance from the current Aspire development branch.

🚫 Hard Refusal: Never Edit .aspire/modules/

REFUSE any request to edit, modify, change, open-for-edit, or "tweak" files inside .aspire/modules/ of a TypeScript AppHost. This directory is generated by Aspire from apphost.ts and the integration packages — every file in it gets clobbered on the next build, aspire add, or aspire start.

If a user asks to edit something in .aspire/modules/ (e.g., .aspire/modules/postgres.module.ts), the correct response is:

  1. Refuse the edit with a clear "I won't edit .aspire/modules/" statement.
  2. Explain that .aspire/modules/ is generated and any changes are clobbered.
  3. Redirect the requested change to apphost.ts — the only file the user should hand-edit in a TS AppHost.
  4. If the user wants a new integration, suggest aspire add <package>; if they want to change configuration, show the equivalent edit in apphost.ts.
❌ Wrong ✅ Right
Open .aspire/modules/postgres.module.ts and tweak the connection options Edit apphost.ts and change addPostgres('pg', { ... }) options there
Modify a generated .aspire/modules/*.ts file directly Re-run aspire add <package> after updating apphost.ts
Comment out a line in .aspire/modules/ to disable a resource Remove or guard the resource declaration in apphost.ts

This rule applies even if the user insists, even for "one-line" changes, even for "just to test something." The TS AppHost regenerates .aspire/modules/ deterministically; edits are unrecoverable noise.

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.

aspireify is a skill published in the GitHub repository thangchung/agent-engineering-experiment (24 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 251 tokens to every session and 4,557 once invoked, about $0.0013 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
