XnaFiddle: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/kernsmith/SKILL.md

kernsmith is a skill for Claude Code from vchelaru/XnaFiddle. It costs 0 tokens per session (753 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A .NET library integration for generating bitmap fonts from TrueType font data at runtime for Gum text rendering. Runtime generation means the font is created while the program is running rather than bundled as a ready-made file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to register TrueType fonts, rasterize them into bitmap fonts, and connect generated fonts to Gum renderables, including Blazor WebAssembly applications.
Why use it?
It supports text rendering when a font must be registered from bytes, including browser environments where operating-system font folders are unavailable.

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

kernsmith 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 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.

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 — 27 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

KernSmith

Runtime (in-memory) font rasterization library, wired into Gum's text rendering — not a general-purpose graphics library. See Examples/DynamicFonts.cs for the canonical usage pattern: BmFont.RegisterFont(name, ttfBytes) to register a font by name, then BmFont.GenerateFromSystem(...) to rasterize it, or let Gum trigger generation lazily via CustomSetPropertyOnRenderable.InMemoryFontCreator = new KernSmithFontCreator(GraphicsDevice, RasterizerBackend.StbTrueType).

Font resolution: "system" fonts don't exist in the browser

GenerateFromSystem(family, options) is the one API for resolving-by-family-name — it does not distinguish an OS-installed font from an in-memory one. In a normal .NET process it scans OS font directories/registry for family. In Blazor WASM there is no filesystem/registry to scan, so that path never finds anything — BmFont.RegisterFont(family, ttfBytes) is the only way to make a family resolvable, and registered fonts are checked before any OS scan. So in this repo (and any browser target), every font is effectively "uploaded," not "installed": a user's .ttf gets registered under a family name (see DynamicFonts.cs registering the bundled DroidSans.ttf before calling GenerateFromSystem("Droid Sans", ...)), and that same call would silently fail to find a real system font like "Arial" unless it happens to also be registered. Style variants (Bold/Italic) register separately per family+style.

KernSmith also ships a KernSmith.Fonts.Web package for fetching WOFF fonts from CDNs (Google/Bunny Fonts) as a WASM-friendly alternative to bundling .ttf bytes — not currently referenced by XnaFiddle's .csproj.

Landmine: rasterizer must be force-registered in WASM

Program.cs uses RuntimeHelpers.RunClassConstructor(typeof(StbTrueTypeRasterizer).TypeHandle) for KernSmith instead of the plain typeof(X) touch used for every other optional library (see the block above it). The StbTrueTypeRasterizer backend self-registers via a static constructor side effect, not by being referenced — a mere typeof touch loads the assembly but never runs the constructor, so the backend silently stays unregistered at runtime. If font generation fails only in the published/WASM build (not locally), check this line first.

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.

kernsmith is a skill published in the GitHub repository vchelaru/XnaFiddle (14 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 753 tokens. 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 2026-09-04.
