Symbolicate the .NET runtime frames in an Android tombstone file. Extracts BuildIds and PC offsets from the native backtrace, downloads debug symbols from the Microsoft symbol server, and runs llvm-symbolizer to produce function names with source file and line numbers. USE FOR triaging a .NET MAUI or Mono Android app crash from a tombstone, resolving native backtrace frames in libmonosgen-2.0.so or libcoreclr.so to .NET runtime source code, or investigating SIGABRT, SIGSEGV, or other native signals originating from the .NET runtime on Android. DO NOT USE FOR pure Java/Kotlin crashes, managed .NET exceptions that are already captured in logcat, or iOS crash logs. INVOKES Symbolicate-Tombstone.ps1 script, llvm-symbolizer, Microsoft symbol server.
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.
Deciding how to test .NET code. Unit vs integration vs E2E decision tree, test doubles.
Modeling business domains. Aggregates, value objects, domain events, rich models, repositories.
Migrate an MSTest v3 test project to MSTest v4. Use when user says "upgrade to MSTest v4", "update to latest MSTest", "MSTest 4 migration", "MSTest v4 breaking changes", "MSTest v4 compatibility", or has build errors after updating MSTest packages from 3.x to 4.x. Also use for target framework compatibility (e.g. net6.0/net7.0 support with MSTest v4). USE FOR: upgrading MSTest packages from 3.x to 4.x, fixing source breaking changes (Execute -> ExecuteAsync, CallerInfo constructor, ClassCleanupBehavior removal, TestContext.Properties, Assert API changes, ExpectedExceptionAttribute removal, TestTimeout enum removal), resolving behavioral changes (TreatDiscoveryWarningsAsErrors, TestContext lifecycle, TestCase.Id changes, MSTest.Sdk MTP changes), handling dropped TFMs (net5.0-net7.0 dropped, only net8.0+, net462, uap10.0 supported). DO NOT USE FOR: migrating from MSTest v1/v2 to v3 (use migrate-mstest-v1v2-to-v3 first), migrating between test frameworks, or general .NET upgrades unrelated to MSTest.
Guide for interpreting ResolveProjectReferences time in MSBuild performance summaries. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. Activate when ResolveProjectReferences appears as the most expensive target and developers are trying to optimize it directly. Explains that the reported time includes wait time for dependent project builds and is misleading. Guides users to focus on task self-time instead. Do not activate for general build performance -- use build-perf-diagnostics instead.
Make .NET projects compatible with Native AOT and trimming by systematically resolving IL trim/AOT analyzer warnings. USE FOR: making projects AOT-compatible, fixing trimming warnings, resolving IL warnings (IL2026, IL2070, IL2067, IL2072, IL3050), adding DynamicallyAccessedMembers annotations, enabling IsAotCompatible. DO NOT USE FOR: publishing native AOT binaries, optimizing binary size, replacing reflection-heavy libraries with alternatives. INVOKES: no tools — pure knowledge skill.
Guidance for .NET MAUI XAML and C# data bindings — compiled bindings, INotifyPropertyChanged / ObservableObject, value converters, binding modes, multi-binding, relative bindings, fallbacks, and MVVM best practices. USE FOR: setting up compiled bindings with x:DataType, implementing INotifyPropertyChanged or CommunityToolkit ObservableObject, creating IValueConverter / IMultiValueConverter, choosing binding modes, configuring BindingContext, relative bindings, binding fallbacks, StringFormat, code-behind SetBinding with lambdas, and enforcing XC0022/XC0025 warnings. DO NOT USE FOR: CollectionView item templates and layouts (use maui-collectionview), Shell navigation data passing (use maui-shell-navigation), dependency injection (use maui-dependency-injection), or animations triggered by property changes (use .NET MAUI animation APIs).
Build or maintain controller-based ASP.NET Core APIs when the project needs controller conventions, advanced model binding, validation extensions, OData, JsonPatch, or existing API patterns.
Entity Framework Core best practices including NoTracking by default, query splitting for navigation collections, migration management, dedicated migration services, and common pitfalls to avoid.
Understand implementation details of .NET code by decompiling assemblies. Use when you want to see how a .NET API works internally, inspect NuGet package source, view framework implementation, or understand compiled .NET binaries.
Set up NuGet trusted publishing (OIDC) on a GitHub Actions repo — replaces long-lived API keys with short-lived tokens. USE FOR: trusted publishing, NuGet OIDC, keyless NuGet publish, migrate from NuGet API key, NuGet/login, secure NuGet publishing. DO NOT USE FOR: publishing to private feeds or Azure Artifacts (OIDC is nuget.org only). INVOKES: shell (powershell or bash), edit, create, ask_user for guided repo setup.
