What it does

Desktopmanager Build is an agent skill from EvotecIT/DesktopManager. Build, package, and verify DesktopManager NuGet, PowerShell module, and CLI/MCP artefacts through the repo-standard PowerForge entrypoints. Use when changing Build/Build-Project.ps1, Build/Build-Module.ps1, Build/project.build.json, powerforge.dotnetpublish.json, module packaging, CLI publish outputs, release assets, or build/operator documentation.

Its SKILL.md is about 640 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It works with PowerShell, Model Context Protocol and C#. The repository describes itself as: DesktopManager is a C library and PowerShell module that allows to get and set wallpapers to given monitor.

When your agent uses it

  • Changing Build/Build-Project.ps1
  • Build/Build-Module.ps1
  • Build/project.build.json
  • Powerforge.dotnetpublish.json

Example prompts

  • “/desktopmanager-build”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use the repo entrypoint first
  2. Prefer plan mode before changing packaging behavior
  3. For PowerShell module-only work, use
  4. For CLI/app publish verification, use
  5. For the daily WinUI tray app without installers, use
  6. For the generated DesktopManager app MSI, use
  7. When checking a specific runtime publish, pass

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1600fb7. 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.

    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

Desktopmanager Build loads about 637 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 207 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~637

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 207 words (~637 tokens).
