Uipath Maestro Case

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Authoring UiPath Maestro Case plans as <Name.case.ts with the reference-mode TypeScript builder SDK (@uipath/maestro-builder-sdk/case)
• Compiling to caseplan.json
• Running the uip maestro case check/compile/validate loop
• C/XAML automation → uipath-rpa

Example prompts

• “/uipath-maestro-case”

Requirements

• Node.js
• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Scaffold once, running case init from inside the solution dir: uip solution init && cd && uip maestro case init . It walks UP for the…
2. 2Keep .case.ts beside this SKILL.md and the workspace package.json.
3. 3If the request requires tasks/tasks.md, write it before code and treat explicit stage/task rules, required flags, routing, and unresolved…
4. 4Import from @uipath/maestro-builder-sdk/case; default-export a chain ending in .build().
5. 5Seed the source by decompiling the stub case init wrote — uip maestro case decompile /caseplan.json -o .case.ts --no-pipeline — rather…
6. 6Run uip maestro case check .case.ts --source after each structural change.
7. 7Compile into the scaffolded Case project, then validate. Compile syncs existing sidecars; refresh added bindings and remove orphaned…
8. 8Run live debug only when requested and tenant resources are available.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c7cb7c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

  • Bash
  • Read
  • Write
  • Edit
  • Glob
  • Grep
  • AskUserQuestion

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Ships script files (TypeScript), which the agent can run.

  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

Uipath Maestro Case loads about 2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 130 tokens; SKILL.md has 612 words of instructions outside code blocks.

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

~130

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

~2k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~4k

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

TRIGGER for authoring UiPath Maestro Case plans as `<Name>.case.ts` with the reference-mode TypeScript builder SDK (`@uipath/maestro-builder-sdk/case`), compiling to `caseplan.json`, and running the `uip maestro case` check/compile/validate loop. Covers stages, tasks, rules, bindings, published-resource references, and brownfield decompile/edit/recompile. Flow builder authoring → uipath-maestro-flow; structural-core BPMN → uipath-maestro-bpmn. DO NOT TRIGGER for C#/XAML automation → uipath-rpa.
