Managedcode Storage

What it does

When your agent uses it

• : integrating ManagedCode.Storage into a .NET application
• Reviewing how a project abstracts file
• Deciding whether to centralize storage provider
• : unrelated stacks

Example prompts

• “/managedcode-storage”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires a .NET application that integrates ManagedCode.Storage or evaluates it as a storage abstraction.

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Identify the actual storage use case
2. 2Verify whether the project wants one storage contract instead of provider-specific SDK calls scattered across the codebase.
3. 3Keep application code dependent on the library abstraction, not directly on backend-specific storage SDKs unless a provider-only feature…
4. 4Centralize provider configuration, credentials, and container naming in composition-root code and typed settings.
5. 5Validate the real upload, download, existence-check, and deletion flows after wiring the library.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 535dd55. 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 mermaid).

  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.

• Compatibility

  Requires a .NET application that integrates ManagedCode.Storage or evaluates it as a storage abstraction.

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Managedcode Storage loads about 723 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 159 tokens; SKILL.md has 246 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~159

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~723

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

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.

description

Use ManagedCode.Storage when a .NET application needs a provider-agnostic storage abstraction with explicit configuration, container selection, upload and download flows, and backend-specific integration kept. USE FOR: integrating ManagedCode.Storage into a .NET application; reviewing how a project abstracts file or object storage; deciding whether to centralize storage provider. DO NOT USE FOR: unrelated stacks; generic tasks that do not need this specific guidance. INVOKES: inspect the repository context, edit targeted files, and run relevant build, test, lint, or validation commands when changes are made.

Requires a .NET application that integrates ManagedCode.Storage or evaluates it as a storage abstraction.
