Skill: csharp – .NET Language Expertise

Purpose

Guide C# feature usage and .NET ecosystem decisions, including async workflows, LINQ, dependency injection, and performance tuning for modern runtimes.

Interface References

• Context: Load guidance via ContextProvider Interface
• Memory: Store project knowledge via MemoryStore Interface
• Output: Save reports to /claudedocs/ using OUTPUT_CONVENTIONS.md

Mandatory Workflow

Step 1: Initial Analysis

• Identify .NET runtime and target framework (NET 6/7/8+)
• Confirm project type (ASP.NET Core, worker service, library, CLI)
• Capture style guidelines (nullable reference types, analyzers, formatting)

Step 2: Load Memory

• Use memoryStore.getSkillMemory("csharp", "{project-name}") for existing conventions
• Review cross-skill insights via memoryStore.getByProject("{project-name}")

Step 3: Load Context

• Use contextProvider.getDomainIndex("dotnet") to select relevant .NET guidance
• Load only the context files required for the task

Step 4: Perform Analysis

• Evaluate async/await usage, cancellation tokens, and exception flow
• Review LINQ usage, allocation hotspots, and data access patterns
• Validate DI lifetimes, configuration bindings, and logging strategy
• Check nullability annotations, generics, and API surface consistency

Step 5: Generate Output

• Provide implementation guidance with concise code samples
• Save the report to /claudedocs/csharp_{project}_{YYYY-MM-DD}.md following OUTPUT_CONVENTIONS

Step 6: Update Memory

• Record framework versions, architectural decisions, and recurring issues
• Update memory with memoryStore.update("csharp", "{project-name}", ...)

Compliance Checklist

• Step 1 captured runtime, project type, and standards
• Step 2 loaded project memory via MemoryStore
• Step 3 loaded relevant context via ContextProvider
• Step 4 analysis covered language, runtime, and architecture concerns
• Step 5 output saved to /claudedocs/ with correct naming
• Step 6 memory updated with new insights
