Create MCP servers using the C# SDK and .NET project templates. Covers scaffolding, tool/prompt/resource implementation, and transport configuration for stdio and HTTP. USE FOR: creating new MCP server projects, scaffolding with dotnet new mcpserver, adding MCP tools/prompts/resources, choosing stdio vs HTTP transport, configuring MCP hosting in Program.cs, setting up ASP.NET Core MCP endpoints with MapMcp. DO NOT USE FOR: debugging or running existing servers (use mcp-csharp-debug), writing tests (use mcp-csharp-test), publishing or deploying (use mcp-csharp-publish), building MCP clients, non-.NET MCP servers.
Reference data for .NET test framework detection patterns, assertion APIs, skip annotations, setup/teardown methods, and common test smell indicators across MSTest, xUnit, NUnit, and TUnit. DO NOT USE directly — loaded by test analysis skills (test-anti-patterns, exp-test-smell-detection, exp-assertion-quality, exp-test-maintainability, exp-test-tagging) when they need framework-specific lookup tables.
Guide for implementing Shell-based navigation in .NET MAUI apps. Covers AppShell setup, visual hierarchy (FlyoutItem, TabBar, Tab, ShellContent), URI-based navigation with GoToAsync, route registration, query parameters, back navigation, flyout and tab configuration, navigation events, and navigation guards. Use when: setting up Shell navigation, adding tabs or flyout menus, navigating between pages with GoToAsync, passing parameters between pages, registering routes, customizing back button behavior, or guarding navigation with confirmation dialogs. Do not use for: deep linking from external URLs (see .NET MAUI deep linking documentation), data binding on pages (use maui-data-binding), dependency injection setup (use maui-dependency-injection), or NavigationPage-only apps that don't use Shell.
Build, review, or migrate .NET MAUI applications across Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows with correct cross-platform UI, platform integration, and native packaging assumptions.
Optimizing .NET allocations/throughput. Span, ArrayPool, ref struct, sealed, stackalloc.
Query .NET APIs across NuGet packages, platform libraries, and local files. Search for types, list API surfaces, compare versions, find extension methods and implementors. Use whenever you need to answer questions about .NET library contents.
Patterns for building entity actors with Akka.Hosting - GenericChildPerEntityParent, message extractors, cluster sharding abstraction, akka-reminders, and ITimeProvider. Supports both local testing and clustered production modes.
Diagnose and fix .NET HTTPS dev certificate trust issues on Linux. Covers the full certificate lifecycle from generation to system CA bundle inclusion, with distro-specific guidance for Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and WSL2.
Proper handling of files generated during the MSBuild's build process. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. Use when generated files are not being included in compilation, output, or when globs aren't capturing generated files. Covers MSBuild evaluation vs execution phases, timing targets to include generated files, and ensuring generated files are tracked for incremental builds and clean.
Activate this skill when BenchmarkDotNet (BDN) is involved in the task — creating, running, configuring, or reviewing BDN benchmarks. Also activate when microbenchmarking .NET code would be useful and BenchmarkDotNet is the likely tool. Consider activating when answering a .NET performance question requires measurement and BenchmarkDotNet may be needed. Covers microbenchmark design, BDN configuration and project setup, how to run BDN microbenchmarks efficiently and effectively, and using BDN for side-by-side performance comparisons. Do NOT use for profiling/tracing .NET code (dotnet-trace, PerfView), production telemetry, or load/stress testing (Crank, k6).
Helps find, inspect, and compare .NET project templates. Resolves natural-language project descriptions to ranked template matches with pre-filled parameters. USE FOR: finding the right dotnet new template for a task, comparing templates side by side, inspecting template parameters and constraints, understanding what a template produces before creating a project, resolving intent like "web API with auth" to concrete template + parameters. DO NOT USE FOR: actually creating projects (use template-instantiation), authoring custom templates (use template-authoring), MSBuild or build issues (use dotnet-msbuild plugin), NuGet package management unrelated to template packages.
Use the open-source free `coverlet` toolchain for .NET code coverage. Use when a repo needs line and branch coverage, collector versus MSBuild driver selection, or CI-safe coverage commands.
