Production-grade logging and observability patterns for ASP.NET Core Razor Pages. Covers structured logging with Serilog, correlation IDs, health checks, request logging, OpenTelemetry integration, and diagnostic best practices. Use when setting up structured logging in ASP.NET Core applications, implementing distributed tracing with OpenTelemetry, or configuring health checks and observability.
Primary router skill for broad .NET work. Classify the repo by app model and cross-cutting concern first, then switch to the narrowest matching .NET skill instead of staying at a generic layer.
Choosing CLI output format. AOT vs framework-dependent, RID matrix, single-file, dotnet tool.
Deep formal test smell audit based on academic research taxonomy (testsmells.org). Detects 19 categorized smell types — conditional logic, mystery guests, sensitive equality, eager tests, and more — with calibrated severity and research-backed remediation. Use for comprehensive test suite health assessments. For a quick pragmatic review, use test-anti-patterns instead. DO NOT USE FOR: writing new tests (use writing-mstest-tests), evaluating assertion quality specifically (use assertion-quality), or finding test duplication and boilerplate (use exp-test-maintainability).
Registering or resolving services with MS DI. Keyed services, scopes, decoration, hosted services.
Correctly call native (C/C++) libraries from .NET using P/Invoke and LibraryImport. Covers function signatures, string marshalling, memory lifetime, SafeHandle, and cross-platform patterns. USE FOR: writing new P/Invoke or LibraryImport declarations, reviewing or debugging existing native interop code, wrapping a C or C++ library for use in .NET, diagnosing crashes, memory leaks, or corruption at the managed/native boundary. DO NOT USE FOR: COM interop, C++/CLI mixed-mode assemblies, or pure managed code with no native dependencies.
Analyze MSBuild binary logs to diagnose build failures by replaying binlogs to searchable text logs. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. USE FOR: build errors that are unclear from console output, diagnosing cascading failures across multi-project builds, tracing MSBuild target execution order, investigating common errors like CS0246 (type not found), MSB4019 (imported project not found), NU1605 (package downgrade), MSB3277 (version conflicts), and ResolveProjectReferences failures. Requires an existing .binlog file. DO NOT USE FOR: generating binlogs (use binlog-generation), build performance analysis (use build-perf-diagnostics), non-MSBuild build systems. INVOKES: dotnet msbuild binlog replay, grep, cat, head, tail for log analysis.
Guides creation and validation of custom dotnet new templates. Generates templates from existing projects and validates template.json for authoring issues. USE FOR: creating a reusable dotnet new template from an existing project, validating template.json files for schema compliance and parameter issues, bootstrapping .template.config/template.json with correct identity, shortName, parameters, and post-actions, packaging templates as NuGet packages for distribution. DO NOT USE FOR: finding or using existing templates (use template-discovery and template-instantiation), MSBuild project file issues unrelated to template authoring, NuGet package publishing (only template packaging structure).
Analyzes test suites and tags each test with a standardized set of traits (e.g., positive, negative, critical-path, boundary, smoke, regression). Use when the user wants to categorize, audit, or label tests with traits. Do not use for writing new tests, running tests, or migrating test frameworks.
Guides creation and modification of ASP.NET Core Web API endpoints with correct HTTP semantics, OpenAPI metadata, and error handling. USE FOR: adding new API endpoints (controllers or minimal APIs), wiring up OpenAPI/Swagger, creating .http test files, setting up global error handling middleware. DO NOT USE FOR: general C# coding style, EF Core data access or query optimization (use optimizing-ef-core-queries), frontend/Blazor work, gRPC services, or SignalR hubs.
Snapshot test email templates using Verify to catch regressions. Validates rendered HTML output matches approved baseline. Works with MJML templates and any email renderer.
Test email sending locally using Mailpit with .NET Aspire. Captures all outgoing emails without sending them. View rendered HTML, inspect headers, and verify delivery in integration tests.
