dart-flutter-sdk-upgrade

dart-flutter-sdk-upgrade is a skill for Claude Code from VeryGoodOpenSource/vgv-ai-flutter-plugin. It costs 78 tokens per session (2,529 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference for updating Dart and Flutter SDK version requirements across packages. Dart is the programming language, and Flutter is the toolkit used to build apps with it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare an SDK-upgrade pull request by changing the relevant pubspec.yaml files and CI workflows without changing application logic or dependencies.
Why use it?
It helps avoid mixing up Flutter and Dart version numbers and keeps CI settings and package requirements consistent during an SDK upgrade.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Anti-Refusal · line 42
    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.
  • medium Excessive Agency · line 19
    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

dart-flutter-sdk-upgrade 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 9d 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.

VGV Flutter/Dart SDK Upgrade — Quick Reference

One PR per project. Only CI workflow and pubspec.yaml changes — no logic, no dependency version bumps, no test changes.


Core Standards

Apply these standards to ALL SDK upgrade work:

  • Flutter and Dart versions differ — a Flutter release ships a Dart SDK whose version number is unrelated to it, and the pubspec sdk: constraint takes the Dart number, never the Flutter one. Look the pairing up in the release archive at https://docs.flutter.dev/install/archive
  • Never state a bundled Dart version from memory — not from recall, not by inference from the Flutter number, and not from an example in this file. Either the user supplied the Dart version, or you read it off the archive, or you ask. There is no fourth source
  • Flutter CI uses MAJOR.MINOR.x — no caret, .x wildcard resolves to latest patch
  • Dart CI uses exact patchMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, no caret, no wildcard
  • pubspec pins exact patch — use ^MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH with the specific patch version
  • Pure Dart packages — use the Dart version directly, no Flutter mapping needed. The CI key is dart_sdk in dart_package.yml, not flutter_version in flutter_package.yml, and the environment block gets sdk: with no flutter: line beside it
  • Write the CI block even without the file — the reusable workflow and its version key are determined by the package type, so a workflow you have not seen is still a known shape. Produce the with: block from the CI workflows section below and name the file it belongs in rather than asking for the file first
  • Verify with pub get and analyze — don't silently resolve conflicts
  • Decline out-of-scope edits, don't caveat them — when asked to also bump a dependency, fix a lint, or change code, do not produce that edit at all. Deliver the SDK constraint and CI changes, report the rest as separate follow-up work

0. Resolve target version

Flutter bundles a specific Dart release, and the two version numbers are unrelated. A bump to Flutter 3.35.5 does not make the Dart constraint ^3.35.5, and the Dart number cannot be derived from the Flutter number by any rule. Every SDK upgrade therefore starts with two versions, not one: the Flutter release being targeted, and the Dart release it ships.

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.
