convert-to-cpm
From the author
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 sync, drifting, or inconsistent -- even without the user mentioning CPM. Provides baseline build capture, version conflict resolution, build validation with binlog comparison, and a structured post-conversion report. DO NOT USE FOR: packages.config projects (must migrate to PackageReference first) or repositories that already have CPM fully enabled.

- nuget-managergithub/awesome-copilotManage NuGet packages in .NET projects/solutions. Use this skill when adding, removing, or updating NuGet package versions. It enforces using `dotnet` CLI for package management and provides strict procedures for direct file edits only when updating versions.Writing★ 40.3K
- dotnet-mcp-buildergithub/awesome-copilotBuild Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in C#/.NET against the current ModelContextProtocol 2.x NuGet packages. Helps with cases the model gets wrong without guidance — stale versions (0.x preview or 1.x-era defaults), the v2 stateless-by-default HTTP flip, the 2026-07-28 spec deprecations (roots/sampling/logging), MCP Apps and Tasks extension packages, elicitation URL mode, per-session HTTP wiring, OAuth and reverse-proxy deploy specifics, and debugging MapMcp / STDIO / Streamable-HTTP errors. Also covers STDIO and Streamable HTTP transports (SSE is deprecated), tools, prompts, resources, completions, and a basic .NET MCP client. Trigger when the user says or implies any .NET MCP server work: ModelContextProtocol, McpServerTool, MapMcp, WithStdioServerTransport, "MCP server in C#", "MCP tool in dotnet", "expose this as MCP", or names a primitive (prompt/resource/elicitation/MCP App) in a .NET context. Skip for MCP work in other languages.DevOps★ 40.3K
- migrate-xunit-to-xunit-v3dotnet/skillsMigrate .NET test projects from xUnit.net v2 to xunit.v3 and fix v3 breaks. Use for package/CPM conversion, OutputType=Exe, preserving the VSTest or MTP runner (including projects currently using YTest.MTP.XUnit2), incompatible TFMs, async void tests, string-to-Type attributes, custom Fact/Theory/BeforeAfterTest attributes, Xunit.SkippableFact, xunit.abstractions/extensibility consolidation, and Xunit.Combinatorial/StaFact compatibility. Do not use for framework conversion or a runner-only migration. For xUnit v3 MTP filter syntax, also use migrate-vstest-to-mtp.Testing★ 5.7K
- template-instantiationdotnet/skillsCreates .NET projects from templates with validated parameters, smart defaults, Central Package Management adaptation, and latest NuGet version resolution. USE FOR: creating new dotnet projects, scaffolding solutions with multiple projects, installing or uninstalling template packages, creating projects that respect Directory.Packages.props (CPM), composing multi-project solutions (API + tests + library), getting latest NuGet package versions in newly created projects. DO NOT USE FOR: finding templates (use template-discovery), producing a detailed side-by-side comparison of templates (use template-comparison), authoring custom templates (use template-authoring), deciding cross-parameter defaults such as which framework to pair with native AOT or whether to keep HTTPS when auth is enabled (use template-smart-defaults), modifying existing projects or adding NuGet packages to existing projects.Testing★ 5.7K

- migrate-dotnet9-to-dotnet10dotnet/skillsMigrate a .NET 9 project or solution to .NET 10 and resolve all breaking changes. USE FOR: upgrading TargetFramework from net9.0 to net10.0, fixing build errors after updating the .NET 10 SDK, resolving source and behavioral changes in .NET 10 / C# 14 / ASP.NET Core 10 / EF Core 10, updating Dockerfiles for Debian-to-Ubuntu base images, resolving obsoletion warnings (SYSLIB0058-SYSLIB0062), adapting to SDK/NuGet changes (NU1510, PrunePackageReference), migrating System.Linq.Async to built-in AsyncEnumerable, fixing OpenApi v2 API changes, cryptography renames, and C# 14 compiler changes (field keyword, extension keyword, span overloads). DO NOT USE FOR: .NET Framework migrations, upgrading from .NET 8 or earlier (use migrate-dotnet8-to-dotnet9 first), greenfield .NET 10 projects, or cosmetic modernization.
