Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned aaronontheweb/dotnet-skills at e426ed93a9.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to interact with the Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration system, allowing them to dynamically read and manage application settings from various sources like JSON, XML, or environment variables. It streamlines configuration management by providing a unified interface for accessing sensitive data without hardcoding values directly into agent logic.

When to use it

  • Deploying agents that need to adapt behavior based on environment-specific settings (e.g., dev vs. production).
  • Retrieving API keys, connection strings, or feature flags stored securely in configuration providers.
  • Building flexible applications where runtime configuration changes are required without redeploying code.
  • Integrating with cloud platforms that inject secrets into the configuration system at startup.

Key capabilities

  • Reads configuration from multiple sources including JSON files, XML, and command-line arguments.
  • Supports hierarchical key structures for organizing complex settings logically.
  • Enables binding configuration values directly to C# objects or dictionaries for easy access.
  • Facilitates secure handling of sensitive data through integration with user secrets and environment variables.

Example prompts

  • "Retrieve the API endpoint URL from the current application configuration."
  • "Check if the 'debugMode' setting is enabled in the configuration provider."
  • "Update the database connection string in the configuration and reload the settings."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has permission to access the file system or environment variables where configuration files are stored, as unauthorized access attempts will fail. Be mindful that configuration changes made at runtime may not persist across application restarts unless explicitly saved back to a provider.
