Cache Playwright browser binaries in CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps) to avoid 1-2 minute download overhead on every build.
Manage NuGet packages using Central Package Management (CPM) and dotnet CLI commands. Never edit XML directly - use dotnet add/remove/list commands. Use shared version variables for related packages.
Snapshot test email templates using Verify to catch regressions. Validates rendered HTML output matches approved baseline. Works with MJML templates and any email renderer.
Guide for modernizing and migrating MSBuild project files to SDK-style format. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. Use when encountering legacy .csproj/.vbproj files with verbose XML, packages.config, or AssemblyInfo.cs patterns. Covers legacy-to-SDK migration, removing boilerplate, PackageReference migration, and Directory.Build consolidation. Invoke when asked to modernize, migrate, or clean up project files.
Runs .NET tests with dotnet test. Use when user says "run tests", "execute tests", "dotnet test", "test filter", "tests not running", or needs to detect the test platform (VSTest or Microsoft.Testing.Platform), identify the test framework, apply test filters, or troubleshoot test execution failures. Covers MSTest, xUnit, NUnit, and TUnit across both VSTest and MTP platforms. DO NOT USE FOR: writing or generating test code, CI/CD pipeline configuration, or debugging failing test logic.
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.
Building WinForms on .NET 8+. High-DPI, dark mode (experimental), DI patterns, modernization tips.
Guidelines for organizing .NET projects, including solution structure, project references, folder conventions, .slnx format, centralized build properties, and central package management. Use when setting up a new .NET solution with modern best practices, configuring centralized build properties across multiple projects, implementing central package version management, or setting up SourceLink for debugging.
Choosing CLI output format. AOT vs framework-dependent, RID matrix, single-file, dotnet tool.
Optimizing .NET allocations/throughput. Span, ArrayPool, ref struct, sealed, stackalloc.
Using records, pattern matching, primary constructors, collection expressions. C# 12-15 by TFM.
Migrate a .NET 10 project or solution to .NET 11 and resolve all breaking changes. This is a MIGRATION skill — use it when upgrading from .NET 10 to .NET 11, NOT for writing new programs. USE FOR: upgrading TargetFramework from net10.0 to net11.0, fixing build errors after updating the .NET 11 SDK, resolving source-breaking and behavioral changes in .NET 11 runtime, C# 15 compiler, and EF Core 11, adapting to updated minimum hardware requirements (x86-64-v2, Arm64 LSE), and updating CI/CD pipelines and Dockerfiles for .NET 11. DO NOT USE FOR: .NET Framework migrations, upgrading from .NET 9 or earlier, greenfield .NET 11 projects, or cosmetic modernization unrelated to the upgrade. NOTE: .NET 11 is in preview. Covers breaking changes through Preview 3.
