Agent Skills from dotnet
Repository stars and maintenance signals provide context, but do not automatically become an individual Skill's quality score.
dotnet/skills
analyzing-dotnet-performance
Scans .NET code for ~50 performance anti-patterns across async, memory, strings, collections, LINQ, regex, serialization, and I/O with tiered severity classification. Use when analyzing .NET code for optimization opportunities, reviewing hot paths, or auditing allocation-heavy patterns.
dotnet/skills
android-tombstone-symbolication
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 sign
dotnet/skills
assertion-quality
Analyzes the variety and depth of assertions across test suites in any language. Use when the user asks to evaluate assertion quality, find shallow tests, identify assertion-free tests (no assertions or only trivial ones like Assert.IsNotNull / toBeTruthy()), flag self-referential or tautological assertions, measure assertion diversity, or audit whether tests verify different facets of behavior. Polyglot: .NET, Python, TS/JS, Java, Go, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Kotlin, PowerShell, C++. DO NOT USE FOR:
dotnet/skills
build-parallelism
Diagnose and fix under-parallelized MSBuild builds. USE WHEN a multi-project solution build is slower than expected, doesn't speed up when you add cores, pegs a single core while others idle, or you want to know why `-m` isn't helping. Note: `/maxcpucount` default is 1 (sequential) — always pass `-m` for parallel builds. Covers finding the critical path (longest serial ProjectReference chain), graph build (`/graph`), BuildInParallel, and solution filters (`.slnf`). DO NOT USE FOR: single-project
dotnet/skills
build-perf-baseline
Establish build performance baselines and apply systematic optimization techniques. USE FOR: diagnosing slow builds, establishing before/after measurements (cold, warm, no-op scenarios), applying optimization strategies like MSBuild Server, static graph builds, artifacts output, and dependency graph trimming. Start here before diving into build-perf-diagnostics, incremental-build, or build-parallelism. DO NOT USE FOR: non-MSBuild build systems, detailed bottleneck analysis (use build-perf-diagno
dotnet/skills
check-bin-obj-clash
Detects MSBuild projects with conflicting OutputPath or IntermediateOutputPath. USE FOR: builds failing with 'Cannot create a file when that file already exists', 'The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process', intermittent build failures that succeed on retry, or missing/overwritten outputs in multi-project or multi-targeting builds where bin/obj (or project.assets.json) collide. Common causes: shared OutputPath, missing AppendTargetFrameworkToOutputPath, extra
dotnet/skills
clr-activation-debugging
Diagnoses .NET Framework CLR activation issues using CLR activation logs (CLRLoad logs) produced by mscoree.dll. Use when: the shim picks the wrong runtime, fails to load any runtime, shows unexpected .NET 3.5 Feature-on-Demand (FOD) dialogs, unexpectedly does NOT show FOD dialogs, loads both v2 and v4 into the same process causing failures, or any time someone is wondering "what is happening with .NET Framework activation?"
dotnet/skills
code-testing-agent
MANDATORY ENTRY POINT for generating or writing tests. Invoke this skill before editing files whenever the user asks to generate tests, write/add unit tests, scaffold a test project or suite, improve/achieve coverage, extend an existing suite to cover an untested method, or test an app, API, service, module, library, or package. Applies to a single function, method or file as much as to a whole project — scope changes how much of the workflow runs, never whether the skill applies. Invoke it when
dotnet/skills
collect-user-input
Build forms, validate data, and react to user input in Blazor. USE FOR adding forms, search boxes, filter panels, inline editing, data-entry UI, file uploads, validation (annotations or custom), handling form submissions, and binding input controls. Covers EditForm, built-in input components, DataAnnotationsValidator, custom validation, SSR form patterns (SupplyParameterFromForm, FormName, AntiforgeryToken, Enhance), and @bind for simple interactive controls. DO NOT USE for project scaffolding (
dotnet/skills
configuring-opentelemetry-dotnet
Configure OpenTelemetry distributed tracing, metrics, and logging in ASP.NET Core using the .NET OpenTelemetry SDK. Use when adding observability, setting up OTLP exporters, creating custom metrics/spans, or troubleshooting distributed trace correlation.
dotnet/skills
convert-blazor-server-to-webapp
Guides conversion of a pre-.NET 8 Blazor Server app into a .NET 8+ Blazor Web App. USE FOR: migrating apps that use AddServerSideBlazor and MapBlazorHub to the AddRazorComponents/MapRazorComponents model, converting _Host.cshtml to an App.razor root component, replacing blazor.server.js with blazor.web.js, migrating CascadingAuthenticationState to a service, adopting new Blazor Web App features like enhanced navigation and streaming rendering. DO NOT USE FOR: apps that are already Blazor Web App
dotnet/skills
convert-to-cpm
Convert .NET projects and solutions (.sln, .slnx) to NuGet Central Package Management (CPM) using Directory.Packages.props. USE FOR: converting to CPM, centralizing or aligning NuGet package versions across multiple projects, inlining MSBuild version properties from Directory.Build.props into Directory.Packages.props, resolving version conflicts or mismatches across a solution or repository, updating or bumping or syncing package versions across projects. Also activate when packages are out of s
