HaloCreek: Skill for Codex

.codex/skills/halocreek-build-review/SKILL.md

halocreek-build-review is a skill for Codex from xianyu603/HaloCreek. It costs 66 tokens per session (607 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A build-and-check helper for the HaloCreek desktop application, which is built with Avalonia, a framework for cross-platform .NET user interfaces. It compiles the Windows-targeted project and reports whether the build passes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compile HaloCreek, check for build warnings and errors, report the output assembly, or start the Windows desktop app for human review.
Why use it?
It gives the project a consistent build check and prevents accidentally opening the desktop window during routine verification. The window is launched only when explicitly requested.

Skill for Codex

This is xianyu603/HaloCreek's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on HaloCreek itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything HaloCreek configures →

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

halocreek-build-review 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (Start-HaloCreekClean.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

HaloCreek Build Review

Context

HaloCreek is an Avalonia desktop app at HaloCreek/HaloCreek.csproj. The project targets net10.0-windows10.0.18362.0.

Prefer Windows PowerShell execution from the repository root. The default build command is:

dotnet build .\HaloCreek\HaloCreek.csproj

Use Windows PowerShell even when the agent is hosted through psmux; do not switch to WSL/bash commands unless the user explicitly asks for WSL-specific diagnosis.

Build Validation

Run build from the repository root:

dotnet build .\HaloCreek\HaloCreek.csproj

Treat the build as passing only when the output reports zero warnings and zero errors, for example 0 Warning(s) and 0 Error(s) or the localized equivalent. Report the output assembly path if present, normally:

D:\work\HaloCreek\HaloCreek\bin\Debug\net10.0-windows10.0.18362.0\HaloCreek.dll

If the build fails because HaloCreek.exe, HaloCreek.dll, or another output file is locked by a running HaloCreek process, report the locked file/process from the build output. Do not kill the process, do not switch to an alternate output directory, and do not launch another app window unless the user explicitly asks for that recovery step.

Launch For Review

Only launch the app when the user explicitly asks to open or review the desktop window. Do this after all requested edits, builds, and checks are complete. Do not launch automatically after a successful build.

When launch is explicitly requested, launch the already-built Windows executable detached from the agent process by using the clean launch script:

.\.codex\skills\halocreek-build-review\Start-HaloCreekClean.ps1

The script removes psmux/terminal-multiplexer environment variables from its own process before starting HaloCreek, so the launched desktop app does not inherit the agent pane environment. Use this script instead of calling Start-Process directly.

Then report that the app was launched and leave the window open for the user. Do not stop the process unless the user explicitly asks to close it.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
