Browse all →plan-ui-changePlan complex Blazor UI features by decomposing them into focused components. USE FOR: building a complex Blazor page with multiple sections, planning component decomposition, designing a multi-section dashboard or layout, breaking down a large UI feature into composable components, pages with sidebars and content panels, any page with 3+ distinct visual sections or multiple interacting sub-features, identifying parent-child relationships and data flow. DO NOT USE FOR: creating new Blazor projects or apps from scratch (use create-blazor-project), implementing a single individual component (use author-component), writing component code with parameters and EventCallback (use author-component), or simple single-component pages.1 installsmsbuild-serverGuide for using MSBuild Server to improve CLI build performance. Activate when developers report slow incremental builds from the command line, or when CLI builds are noticeably slower than IDE builds. Covers MSBUILDUSESERVER=1 environment variable for persistent server-based caching. Do not activate for IDE-based builds (Visual Studio already uses a long-lived process).1 installscoverage-analysisProject-wide code coverage and CRAP (Change Risk Anti-Patterns) score analysis for .NET projects. Calculates CRAP scores per method and surfaces risk hotspots — complex code with low coverage that is dangerous to modify. Use to diagnose why coverage is stuck or plateaued, identify what methods block improvement, or get project-wide coverage analysis with risk ranking. USE FOR: coverage stuck, coverage plateau, can't increase coverage, what's blocking coverage, coverage gap, CRAP scores, risk hotspots, where to add tests, coverage analysis, coverage report. DO NOT USE FOR: targeted single-method CRAP analysis (use crap-score); auditing test code for coverage-touching or other anti-patterns (use test-anti-patterns); writing tests; running tests (use run-tests). Requires or produces coverage (Cobertura) and CRAP metrics.1 installsincremental-buildGuide for optimizing MSBuild incremental builds. USE FOR: builds slower than expected on subsequent runs, 'nothing changed but it rebuilds anyway', diagnosing why targets re-execute unnecessarily, fixing broken no-op builds. Covers 8 common causes: missing Inputs/Outputs on custom targets, volatile properties in output paths (timestamps/GUIDs), file writes outside tracked Outputs, missing FileWrites registration, glob changes, Visual Studio Fast Up-to-Date Check (FUTDC) issues. Key diagnostic: look for 'Building target completely' vs 'Skipping target' in binlog. DO NOT USE FOR: first-time build slowness (use build-perf-baseline), parallelism issues (use build-parallelism), evaluation-phase slowness (use eval-performance), non-MSBuild build systems.0 installsminimal-api-file-uploadFile upload endpoints in ASP.NET minimal APIs (.NET 8+)0 installsmcp-csharp-publishPublish 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), writing tests (use mcp-csharp-test).0 installs

View source →create-skillScaffolds new agent skills for the dotnet/skills repository. Use when creating a new skill, generating SKILL.md files, writing a skill description that the runtime will actually route to, or setting up skill directory structures. Handles frontmatter generation, section templates, and validation guidance. Do not use for fixing a skill that already fails its evaluation (use improve-skill-quality) or for writing eval.yaml (use create-skill-test).5 installscode-testing-agentGenerate or add unit tests for existing code, from one function to a complete project-wide suite. ALWAYS USE when asked to "write unit tests", "add tests", "generate tests", "cover this untested method", scaffold tests where none exist, or create comprehensive tests across multiple modules or packages. Polyglot: C#/.NET, Python/pytest, TS/JS, Go, Rust, Java, Ruby. Handles classic non-SDK/packages.config MSTest projects, explicit Compile registration, sparse workspaces, existing-suite extension, and proportional focused work. DO NOT USE for only running/diagnosing tests, analyzing a coverage report, auditing test quality, or answering an MSTest API question without writing tests.2 installssupport-prerenderingMake interactive Blazor components work correctly with prerendering. USE FOR fixing duplicate data loads, UI flicker during prerender-to-interactive handoff, null references during prerender, persisting state across prerender, disabling prerendering, excluding pages from interactive routing, or detecting whether a component is currently prerendering. DO NOT USE for choosing which render mode to use (see create-blazor-project) or general component authoring (see author-component).1 installscsharp-scriptsRun file-based C# apps with the .NET CLI when the user explicitly wants C#/.NET code without creating a project. Use for C# language/API experiments, one-file C# apps, small multi-file C# apps composed with `#:include`/`#:exclude`, or C# file-based apps linked with `#:ref`. Do not use for language-agnostic throwaway scripts, generic computations, Python/PowerShell-style automation, full projects, or existing app integration.1 installsanalyzing-dotnet-performanceScans .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.1 installsandroid-tombstone-symbolicationSymbolicate 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 signals originating from the .NET runtime on Android. DO NOT USE FOR pure Java/Kotlin crashes, managed .NET exceptions that are already captured in logcat, or iOS crash logs.

Frequently asked questions about dotnet-test-frameworks
What does the dotnet-test-frameworks skill do?
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. Loaded by test analysis skills (test-anti-patterns) as framework-specific lookup tables. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the dotnet-test-frameworks skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install dotnet-dotnet-test-frameworks` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/dotnet-dotnet-test-frameworks/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does dotnet-test-frameworks work with?
dotnet-test-frameworks runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the dotnet-test-frameworks skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use dotnet-test-frameworks after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/dotnet-dotnet-test-frameworks` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the dotnet-test-frameworks skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
