mvvmImplement the Model-View-ViewModel pattern in .NET applications with proper separation of concerns, data binding, commands, and testable ViewModels using MVVM Toolkit.
Mvvm is an agent skill from managedcode/dotnet-skills. Implement the Model-View-ViewModel pattern in .NET applications with proper separation of concerns, data binding, commands, and testable ViewModels using MVVM Toolkit. USE FOR: implementing UI separation with Model-View-ViewModel; using MVVM Toolkit (CommunityToolkit.Mvvm) for ViewModels; designing testable UI architecture. 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…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.json`, `references/anti-patterns.md` and `references/patterns.md`). Compatibility notes: Applies to WPF, MAUI, WinUI, Uno Platform, Avalonia, and Blazor projects.
It sits in Development, covering Codebase knowledge for agents. It works with .NET. The repository describes itself as: Installable .NET skill catalog and CLI for Codex, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Gemini. The licence is MIT.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 535dd55. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are csharp and xml).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
learn.microsoft.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Applies to WPF, MAUI, WinUI, Uno Platform, Avalonia, and Blazor projects.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Mvvm loads about 2.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 141 tokens; SKILL.md has 321 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

Implement the Model-View-ViewModel pattern in .NET applications with proper separation of concerns, data binding, commands, and testable ViewModels using MVVM Toolkit. Mvvm is an agent skill from managedcode/dotnet-skills.NET applications with proper separation of concerns, data binding, commands, and testable ViewModels using MVVM Toolkit.
Mvvm fits situations like: : implementing UI separation with Model-View-ViewModel; using MVVM Toolkit (CommunityToolkit.Mvvm) for ViewModels; designing testable UI architecture; : unrelated stacks.
Run `npx skills add managedcode/dotnet-skills --skill mvvm -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (catalog/Libraries/MVVM-Toolkit/skills/mvvm in managedcode/dotnet-skills) into .claude/skills/mvvm in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add managedcode/dotnet-skills --skill mvvm -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (catalog/Libraries/MVVM-Toolkit/skills/mvvm in managedcode/dotnet-skills) into .agents/skills/mvvm in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add managedcode/dotnet-skills --skill mvvm -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/mvvm, .gemini/skills/mvvm, .github/skills/mvvm and .opencode/skills/mvvm in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Mvvm is instructions for the agent only. Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Applies to WPF, MAUI, WinUI, Uno Platform, Avalonia, and Blazor projects..
SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: learn.microsoft.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Mvvm is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.7k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 11k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 3.4k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Mvvm: Repomix Codebase Explorer (yamadashy/repomix, 29k stars), Codebase Context (homarr-labs/homarr, 5k stars), tilth Code Reading CLI (jahala/tilth, 352 stars) and Brownfield Repo Scanner (Q00/ouroboros, 6.2k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
