What it does

Mcaf Dotnet Coverlet is an agent skill from managedcode/Storage. Use the open-source free coverlet toolchain for .NET code coverage. Use when a repo needs line and branch coverage, collector versus MSBuild driver selection, or CI-safe coverage commands.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/coverlet.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires a .NET test project or solution; respects the repo's AGENTS.md commands first.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Test coverage. It works with .NET. The repository describes itself as: Storage library provides a universal interface for accessing and manipulating data in different cloud blob storage providers. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A repo needs line and branch coverage
  • Collector versus MSBuild driver selection
  • CI-safe coverage commands

Example prompts

  • “/mcaf-dotnet-coverlet”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires a .NET test project or solution; respects the repo's `AGENTS.md` commands first.

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5d32121. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • dotnet
    • rg

    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 test project or solution; respects the repo's `AGENTS.md` commands first.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Mcaf Dotnet Coverlet loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 537 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.5k

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.

MCAF: .NET Coverlet

Trigger On

  • the repo uses or wants coverlet
  • CI needs line or branch coverage for .NET tests
  • the team needs to choose between coverlet.collector, coverlet.msbuild, or coverlet.console

Value

  • produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
  • reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
  • leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer

Do Not Use For

  • coverage report rendering by itself
  • repos that intentionally use a different coverage engine

Inputs

  • the nearest AGENTS.md
  • active runner model: VSTest or Microsoft.Testing.Platform
  • target test projects

Quick Start

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

Workflow

  1. Choose the driver deliberately:
    • coverlet.collector for VSTest dotnet test --collect
    • coverlet.msbuild for MSBuild property-driven runs
    • coverlet.console for standalone scenarios
  2. Add coverage packages only to test projects.
  3. Do not mix coverlet.collector and coverlet.msbuild in the same test project.
  4. Pair raw coverage collection with ReportGenerator only when humans need rendered reports.

Bootstrap When Missing

If coverage is not configured yet:

  1. Detect current state:
    • rg -n "coverlet\\.(collector|msbuild)|CollectCoverage|XPlat Code Coverage" -g '*.csproj' -g '*.props' -g '*.targets' .
    • dotnet tool list --local
    • dotnet tool list --global
    • command -v coverlet
  2. Install exactly one driver path:
    • VSTest collector: dotnet add TEST_PROJECT.csproj package coverlet.collector
    • MSBuild driver: dotnet add TEST_PROJECT.csproj package coverlet.msbuild
    • Console tool: dotnet new tool-manifest (if missing) and dotnet tool install coverlet.console
  3. Record one concrete local and CI command in AGENTS.md:
    • collector: dotnet test TEST_PROJECT.csproj --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"
    • msbuild: dotnet test TEST_PROJECT.csproj /p:CollectCoverage=true /p:CoverletOutputFormat=cobertura
    • console: dotnet tool run coverlet TEST_ASSEMBLY.dll --target "dotnet" --targetargs "test TEST_PROJECT.csproj --no-build"
  4. Run the chosen command once and return status: configured or status: improved.
  5. If another coverage engine already owns coverage for this repo, return status: not_applicable.

Deliver

  • explicit coverage driver selection
  • reproducible coverage commands for local and CI runs
Show full SKILL.md (209 more words)Show less

Validate

  • coverage driver matches the runner model
  • coverage files are stable and consumable by downstream reporting

Ralph Loop

Use the Ralph Loop for every task, including docs, architecture, testing, and tooling work.

  1. Plan first (mandatory):
    • analyze current state
    • define target outcome, constraints, and risks
    • write a detailed execution plan
    • list final validation skills to run at the end, with order and reason
  2. Execute one planned step and produce a concrete delta.
  3. Review the result and capture findings with actionable next fixes.
  4. Apply fixes in small batches and rerun the relevant checks or review steps.
  5. Update the plan after each iteration.
  6. Repeat until outcomes are acceptable or only explicit exceptions remain.
  7. If a dependency is missing, bootstrap it or return status: not_applicable with explicit reason and fallback path.
Required Result Format
  • status: complete | clean | improved | configured | not_applicable | blocked
  • plan: concise plan and current iteration step
  • actions_taken: concrete changes made
  • validation_skills: final skills run, or skipped with reasons
  • verification: commands, checks, or review evidence summary
  • remaining: top unresolved items or none

For setup-only requests with no execution, return status: configured and exact next commands.

Load References

  • read references/coverlet.md first

Example Requests

  • "Add Coverlet to this .NET solution."
  • "Choose the right Coverlet driver for CI."
