When your agent uses it

  • Internationalizing the dscmd command-line tool
  • Tasks that involve Internationalization

Example prompts

  • “/spectre-cli-localization”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Migrate [Description] Attributes
  2. Migrate .WithDescription() Calls
  3. Update DirectLakeModeDescriptionAttribute
  4. Update CustomHelpProvider

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a4add2e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are csharp).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Spectre CLI Localization loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 242 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 242 words (~1,015 tokens).

“The DaxStudio.CommandLine project uses Spectre.Console.Cli with [Description] attributes for help text. There are ~28 [Description] attributes across settings classes and ~9 .WithDescription() calls in Program.cs.”
