Catalog of MSBuild anti-patterns with detection rules and fix recipes. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. Use when reviewing, auditing, or cleaning up .csproj, .vbproj, .fsproj, .props, .targets, or .proj files. Each anti-pattern has a symptom, explanation, and concrete BAD→GOOD transformation. DO NOT use for non-MSBuild build systems (npm, Maven, CMake, etc.).
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.
Guides technology selection and implementation of AI and ML features in .NET 8+ applications using ML.NET, Microsoft.Extensions.AI (MEAI), Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF), GitHub Copilot SDK, ONNX Runtime, and OllamaSharp. Covers the full spectrum from classic ML through modern LLM orchestration to local inference. Use when adding classification, regression, clustering, anomaly detection, recommendation, LLM integration (text generation, summarization, reasoning), RAG pipelines with vector search, agentic workflows with tool calling, Copilot extensions, or custom model inference via ONNX Runtime to a .NET project. DO NOT USE FOR projects targeting .NET Framework (requires .NET 8+), the task is pure data engineering or ETL with no ML/AI component, or the project needs a custom deep learning training loop (use Python with PyTorch/TensorFlow, then export to ONNX for .NET inference).
Guide for optimizing MSBuild build parallelism and multi-project scheduling. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. Use when builds are not utilizing all CPU cores, when looking to speed up multi-project builds, or when evaluating graph build mode. Covers /maxcpucount, project dependency graphs, graph build (/graph), BuildInParallel, and reducing unnecessary project references.
Analyzing .NET code for modernization. Outdated TFMs, deprecated packages, superseded patterns.
Critical Akka.NET best practices including EventStream vs DistributedPubSub, supervision strategies, error handling, Props vs DependencyResolver, work distribution patterns, and cluster/local mode abstractions for testability.
Use Verify for snapshot testing in .NET. Approve API surfaces, HTTP responses, rendered emails, and serialized outputs. Detect unintended changes through human-reviewed baseline files.
Akka.Management for cluster bootstrapping, service discovery (Kubernetes, Azure, Config), health checks, and dynamic cluster formation without static seed nodes.
Write unit and integration tests for Akka.NET actors using modern Akka.Hosting.TestKit patterns. Covers dependency injection, TestProbes, persistence testing, and actor interaction verification. Includes guidance on when to use traditional TestKit.
Patterns for using Testcontainers in .NET integration tests to spin up real dependencies like databases and message queues. Use when writing integration tests that require real databases, testing with message brokers like RabbitMQ or Kafka, or isolating test dependencies with Docker containers.
Configuration patterns using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration. Covers configuration providers, binding, validation, and best practices for .NET applications. Use when setting up configuration in .NET applications, implementing configuration validation with IValidateOptions, or managing settings across different environments.
Publish and deploy C# MCP servers. Covers NuGet packaging for stdio servers, Docker containerization for HTTP servers, Azure Container Apps and App Service deployment, and publishing to the official MCP Registry. USE FOR: packaging stdio MCP servers as NuGet tools, creating Dockerfiles for HTTP MCP servers, deploying to Azure Container Apps or App Service, publishing to the MCP Registry at registry.modelcontextprotocol.io, configuring server.json for MCP package metadata, setting up CI/CD for MCP server publishing. DO NOT USE FOR: publishing general NuGet libraries (not MCP-specific), general Docker guidance unrelated to MCP, creating new servers (use mcp-csharp-create), debugging (use mcp-csharp-debug), writing tests (use mcp-csharp-test).
