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.
Apideck Unified API integration patterns for C# and .NET. Use when building integrations with accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite), CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive), HRIS platforms (Workday, BambooHR), file storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, Box), ATS systems (Greenhouse, Lever), e-commerce, or any of Apideck's 200+ connectors using .NET. Covers the ApideckUnifySdk NuGet package, authentication, CRUD operations, pagination, error handling, and Vault connection management.
Suggests using Microsoft Testing Platform (MTP) hot reload to iterate fixes on failing tests without rebuilding. Use when user says "hot reload tests", "iterate on test fix", "run tests without rebuilding", "speed up test loop", "fix test faster", or needs to set up MTP hot reload to rapidly iterate on test failures. Covers setup (NuGet package, environment variable, launchSettings.json) and the iterative workflow for fixing tests. DO NOT USE FOR: writing test code, diagnosing test failures, CI/CD pipeline configuration, or Visual Studio Test Explorer hot reload (which is a different feature).
Expert knowledge for Azure Artifacts development including best practices, decision making, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when managing feeds, upstream sources, package publishing/restore, GitHub Actions CI/CD, or npm/NuGet config, and other Azure Artifacts related development tasks. Not for Azure DevOps (use azure-devops), Azure Pipelines (use azure-pipelines), Azure Repos (use azure-repos), Azure Boards (use azure-boards).
Diagnose MSBuild build performance bottlenecks using binary log analysis. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. USE FOR: identifying why builds are slow by analyzing binlog performance summaries, detecting ResolveAssemblyReference (RAR) taking >5s, Roslyn analyzers consuming >30% of Csc time, single targets dominating >50% of build time, node utilization below 80%, excessive Copy tasks, NuGet restore running every build. Covers timeline analysis, Target/Task Performance Summary interpretation, and 7 common bottleneck categories. Use after build-perf-baseline has established measurements. DO NOT USE FOR: establishing initial baselines (use build-perf-baseline first), fixing incremental build issues (use incremental-build), parallelism tuning (use build-parallelism), non-MSBuild build systems. INVOKES: dotnet msbuild binlog replay with performancesummary, grep for analysis.
Run Google's OSV-Scanner for Software Composition Analysis. Scans lockfiles and SBOMs across all major ecosystems (npm, PyPI, Maven, Go, Cargo, NuGet, RubyGems) for known vulnerabilities.
Migrate MSTest v1 or v2 test project to MSTest v3. Use when user says "upgrade MSTest", "upgrade to MSTest v3", "migrate to MSTest v3", "update test framework", "modernize tests", "MSTest v3 migration", "MSTest compatibility", "MSTest v2 to v3", or build errors after updating MSTest packages from 1.x/2.x to 3.x. USE FOR: upgrading from MSTest v1 assembly references (Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework) or MSTest v2 NuGet (MSTest.TestFramework 1.x-2.x) to MSTest v3, fixing assertion overload errors (AreEqual/AreNotEqual), updating DataRow constructors, replacing .testsettings with .runsettings, timeout behavior changes, target framework compatibility (.NET 5 dropped -- use .NET 6+; .NET Fx older than 4.6.2 dropped), adopting MSTest.Sdk. First step toward MSTest v4 -- after this, use migrate-mstest-v3-to-v4. DO NOT USE FOR: migrating to MSTest v4 (use migrate-mstest-v3-to-v4), migrating between frameworks (MSTest to xUnit/NUnit), or general .NET upgrades unrelated to MSTest.
Convert PDF files to images with customization options (output format, DPI, pages, scaling, and image quality). Supports one mode — generate C# code for the user's project.
Run single-file C# programs as scripts for quick experimentation, prototyping, and concept testing. Use when the user wants to write and execute a small C# program without creating a full project.
Use when working with C#, F#, .NET libraries, ASP.NET Core, Blazor, Entity Framework Core, and the broader .NET ecosystem. USE FOR: .NET language features, choosing libraries and frameworks, project structure, package selection, architecture decisions DO NOT USE FOR: specific library configuration details (use the sub-skills: web, data, testing, eventing, cloud, etc.)
Helps create vvvv gamma editor extensions — .HDE.vl file naming, Command node registration with keyboard shortcuts, SkiaWindow/SkiaWindowTopMost window types, docking with WindowFactory, and API access to hovered/selected nodes via VL.Lang Session nodes. Use when building editor plugins, custom tooling windows, or automating editor workflows.
Writes XML doc comments. Tags, inheritdoc, GenerateDocumentationFile, warning suppression.
