Trim csharp-refactoring SKILL.md to lean v3 (proportional rigor)
Replaces the shipped skill body with the validated v3 variant: judgment-first, rigor proportional to blast radius, redundant catalog/list scaffolding removed. ~53% smaller (12,811->6,039 chars) with equal or better cross-family eval quality and no measured regression. Description (929 chars) and all safety rules retained. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Copilot-Session: 3c9f9823-7f2f-4f7d-9d1b-f2b9e7a20c60 |

Define and validate native Codex plugin support (#1164)
* fix: validate native Codex plugin support Separate Codex-compatible plugin components from GitHub Copilot custom agents, validate Codex manifest fields and MCP shapes, and document the native agent installation boundary. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: strengthen Codex plugin verification Validate Codex MCP per-tool settings and add a pinned native smoke lane that installs the marketplace, discovers skills and MCP, and calls binlog_overview. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: avoid restarting Codex MCP smoke client Use the real tool call as the app-server initialization so the Linux smoke test does not start and tear down a redundant status client first. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: harden Codex validation and smoke cleanup Constrain smoke artifacts to a dedicated child directory, validate Codex manifest field shapes and required skill paths, and document the separate Agents SDK handoff model. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: align Codex smoke and hooks parsing Use the clean Codex installation's default provider for the direct MCP call and reject heterogeneous hooks arrays like the runtime parser. Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: verify every Codex plugin skill Compare native skill discovery with the full repository inventory, match Codex lexical path rejection, and allow null optional MCP tool settings.

Add automated per-plugin versioning (NBGV) with /version-bump + weekly backstop (#813)
* Add automated per-plugin versioning (NBGV) with /version-bump + weekly backstop WHY Tools that surface skills (Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) read a plugin's version directly from its checked-in manifest. With no versioning discipline, a plugin's behavior can change while its advertised version stays flat, so clients never learn to re-pull, and there is no human-readable signal of what changed. We want correct, current versions in the repo with minimal manual work and without bloating the marketplace clone. WHAT - Per-plugin semantic versioning via Nerdbank.GitVersioning (NBGV). Each plugin owns a version.json whose pathFilters exclude the generated manifests and the version.json itself, so version height tracks real content changes only. - The computed version is materialized into the checked-in manifests (plugin.json and .codex-plugin/plugin.json) so every consumer reads a current value with no build step on their side. - eng/version/Sync-PluginVersions.ps1 is the single workhorse. It resolves the set of changed plugins from a git diff, computes each version with nbgv (predicting the squash-merge height for PRs), and either reports or stamps. AUTOMATIONS (two, low-touch by design) - /version-bump: an admin/maintainer comments the command on a PR and the affected plugins are stamped on the PR branch. Gated on collaborator permission (admin/write/maintain); forks are rejected before any privileged step. No other PRs are auto-modified. - weekly-version-sync: a Monday backstop (and workflow_dispatch) that stamps any drift on main, opens/updates a single bot PR, and explains the per-plugin reason. This self-heals anything that merged without a bump. We deliberately did NOT auto-edit contributor PRs or add a noisy advisory comment bot; maintainers stay in control and the signal stays clean. SECURITY (multi-model adversarial review: GPT-5.5 + Gemini 3.1 Pro) - Supply chain (High, both models): dotnet tool restore would have honored a nuget.config authored in the PR tree, letting an attacker remap the nbgv package source to a malicious feed and run code in the privileged contents:write context. Mitigated with a trusted eng/version/nuget.config (clear + nuget.org-only + packageSourceMapping), overlaid from main and used via --configfile so PR-supplied configs are ignored. No nuget.config is tracked in the repo today, so this path was genuinely exploitable. - TOCTOU (Medium): /version-bump now checks out the authorized head SHA rather than the mutable branch name; a racing push fails non-fast-forward, which is the safe outcome. - Injection: Set-ManifestVersion uses a MatchEvaluator (not a replacement string) so a "$"-bearing version cannot re-expand, plus a strict major.minor.patch guard that throws on a malformed base, leaving manifests untouched. - A base-only version.json bump (0.1 -> 0.2) is correctly detected and stamped. VERIFIED End-to-end against a real NBGV git harness: content-scoped predict, base-only bump -> x.y.0, docs-only -> [], weekly drift stamping, malformed-base guard, and --configfile restore (exit 0). actionlint passes on both workflows. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Address Copilot review feedback - Add missing plugins/dotnet-test-migration/version.json so it participates in versioning (it was the only plugin without one; manifests are at 0.1.0). - CONTRIBUTING: the two manifests are not byte-identical; say the version is duplicated across two manifest files instead. - weekly-version-sync: include version.json in commit attribution so a base-only bump is explained rather than showing 'no attributable commits'. - Get-NbgvInfo: capture nbgv stderr and include it in the thrown error so CI failures are diagnosable, while keeping stdout clean for JSON parsing.

Add .codex-plugin/plugin.json manifests for Codex CLI plugin install (#726)
The Codex CLI requires .codex-plugin/plugin.json as the plugin manifest entry point. Without it, 'codex plugin add' fails with 'missing plugin.json' even though the marketplace listing works. This adds .codex-plugin/plugin.json to all 14 plugin directories, with paths relative to the plugin root per the Codex docs. Also updates the agents marketplace to use dotnet-aspnetcore (per #711 rename) and adds missing dotnet-blazor and dotnet11 entries.

Update lsp.config to invoke dnx from the plugin directory (#607)
Due to the behavior of dotnet SDK resolution when running in repos which use a global.json, we are not gaurenteed that the choosen SDK will be new enough to support the dotnet dnx command which we were using to install and run the roslyn-language-server. Instead, we will ship our own global.json and configure the current working directory to be the plugin directory. |

Add Claude Code-shaped .lsp.json for the dotnet plugin
Claude Code auto-discovers `.lsp.json` at plugin root and expects a schema that differs from Copilot CLI's `lsp.json`: - No outer `lspServers` wrapper in the external file (the wrapper is only used when defining LSP servers inline in `plugin.json`). - Required field is `extensionToLanguage`, not `fileExtensions`. Without this file, Claude Code silently rejects the existing `lsp.json` (Copilot CLI shape) and the Roslyn language server is never registered — `/reload-plugins` reports `0 plugin LSP servers`. After adding `.lsp.json`, the count becomes `1 plugin LSP server` and `findReferences`, `goToImplementation`, etc. work end-to-end. The existing `lsp.json` is left untouched so Copilot CLI continues to work; the two hosts read different filenames and never see each other's config. References: - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins-reference (lspServers, external `.lsp.json` format, required fields) - https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/copilot-cli/set-up-copilot-cli/add-lsp-servers (Copilot CLI uses `lsp.json` with `lspServers` wrapper and `fileExtensions`) Signed-off-by: Roman Głogowski <roman.glogowski@volue.com> |

Change agents and skills fields in plugin.json to array format for Claude Code CLI compatibility (#407)
* Initial plan * Remove agents string field from plugin.json and handle array format in parser Claude Code CLI validates `agents` as array-of-strings per its plugin manifest schema. Our plugin.json files had `"agents": "./agents/"` (a string), which caused "agents: Invalid input" validation errors on install. Remove the field from the 3 affected plugin.json files — agents are still discovered by convention from the `agents/` directory. Also make ParsePluginJson resilient to both string and array formats for forward-compatibility. Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove `agents` string field from plugin.json for Claude Code CLI compatibility Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Change agents field to array format in plugin.json, update validator to read array-first with string fallback Plugin.json files now declare agents as an array of file paths: "agents": ["./agents/foo.agent.md", "./agents/bar.agent.md"] ParsePluginJson reads the array first (preferred, Claude Code schema), falls back to a string path (legacy). PluginInfo gains an AgentPaths field. Validator and discovery use the array when present, else fall back to directory-based convention. Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Simplify agents to directory-path array form ["./agents/"], handle directories in array entries Per Copilot CLI spec, agents field values are "Path(s) to agent directories" — no need to list individual files. Use ["./agents/"] to mirror how skills uses "./skills/". Updated validator and discovery to handle both directory and file entries in the array. Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Delete .nuget/nuget.exe * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Copilot Autofix powered by AI <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Convert skills field to array format in plugin.json, update validator to handle both forms Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Align AgentPaths null checks to use { Count: > 0 } pattern for consistency Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Change `agents` and `skills` fields in plugin.json to array format for Claude Code CLI compatibility Co-authored-by: ViktorHofer <7412651+ViktorHofer@users.noreply.github.com> * Delete .nuget/nuget.exe * Consolidate SkillsPath/SkillPaths and AgentsPath/AgentPaths into single array fields Remove dual string/array fields from PluginInfo. The parser now normalizes legacy string values into single-element arrays, so all downstream code uses only SkillPaths and AgentPaths (IReadOnlyList<string>). This eliminates all array-vs-string fallback branching.

Add agent and plugin spec conformance validation (#279)
* Add agent and plugin spec conformance validation Extend the validation pipeline to check .agent.md files and plugin.json files alongside skills. Previously only SKILL.md files were validated. Agent validation (AgentProfiler): - Frontmatter required (error) - Name and description required (error) - Name format: same rules as skills (lowercase alphanum + hyphens, 64 max) - Name must match filename minus .agent.md suffix - Description max 1024 chars - Body max 500 lines Plugin validation (PluginValidator): - Name required, must match directory name - Version and description required - Description max 1024 chars - Skills path required and must exist - Agents path warned if specified but missing Discovery (SkillDiscovery): - DiscoverAgents() walks up from skill paths to plugin roots, scans agents/ directories for .agent.md files - DiscoverPlugins() finds plugin.json from skill paths Integration (ValidateCommand): - Runs after skill discovery, before evaluation - Errors block with exit code 1 (same as spec_conformance_failure) All 4 existing agents and 2 plugins pass cleanly. 25 new tests (13 agent, 12 plugin). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Code review fixes: spec comments, ValidateNameFormat, kind-specific messages - Refactor ValidateName into ValidateNameFormat (format-only) + ValidateName (format + directory match) so agent/plugin validation doesn't abuse the skill directory-match check by passing name twice. - Warning messages now say 'Agent name' or 'Plugin name' instead of 'Skill name' when called from AgentProfiler/PluginValidator. - Add spec URL comments to AgentProfiler and PluginValidator referencing agentskills.io/specification, VS Code agent-plugins docs, and Claude Code plugins-reference. - Add missing agent name edge-case tests: leading/trailing hyphen, consecutive hyphens, and message-prefix assertions. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove unused agents path from plugins that have no agents The dotnet, dotnet-data, and dotnet-upgrade plugins declared an agents path but had no agents/ directory, producing validation warnings. Remove the field; it can be added back when agents are actually created. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Promote agent/plugin name validation from warnings to errors The agentskills.io spec uses 'Must' for all name constraints (length, character set, no leading/trailing hyphens, no consecutive hyphens). For a publishing validator these should block, not just warn. Agent filename mismatch is also promoted since the IDE won't discover the agent if the name doesn't match. Skill name validation stays as warnings (lenient loading, not part of this PR). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Address PR review feedback - Fix FrontmatterRegex: remove RegexOptions.Multiline so a horizontal rule (---) in the body is not mistaken for frontmatter. Detection and stripping now both anchor to start of string. - Use filename as fallback identifier in AgentProfile when agent.Name is empty, so error output shows [agent:foo.agent.md] not [agent:]. - Add TryGetSafeSubdirectory to PluginValidator: rejects absolute paths and parent-directory traversal in skills/agents path fields. Used by both PluginValidator and SkillDiscovery.DiscoverAgents. - Use DirectoryName as fallback for plugin result name when Name is empty, so error output shows [plugin:my-dir] not [plugin:]. - Add tests for path traversal rejection and name fallback behavior. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Detect orphaned test directories with no matching plugin/skill Add FindOrphanedTestDirectories to SkillDiscovery: checks that every directory under tests/{plugin}/{skill}/ has a corresponding directory under plugins/{plugin}/skills/{skill}/. Plugin-level orphans (tests/ directory with no matching plugins/ directory) are also flagged. Integrated into ValidateCommand after plugin/agent validation so it runs on every validation pass. Errors are blocking (exit 1). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Address PR #279 review feedback - Use case-sensitive (Ordinal) comparison for agent filename matching since agent names are required to be lowercase by spec. - Replace OrdinalIgnoreCase path-under-root check in TryGetSafeSubdirectory with Path.GetRelativePath + '..' prefix check for correct behavior on case-sensitive filesystems. - Let ParsePluginJson throw JsonException on malformed JSON instead of silently returning null. ValidateCommand catches it as a blocking error. - Add test for malformed plugin.json. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Increase eval timeouts for dump-collect and dotnet-trace-collect to 120s The with-skill runs for these skills were hitting the 60s scenario timeout in CI, causing the agent to be killed before producing output. Other skills in the same plugin already use 120s. The 30s decline/negative-test scenario is left unchanged. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix fixture paths in clr-activation-debugging and analyzing-dotnet-performance evals The source paths referenced tests/dotnet/ but the fixtures live under tests/dotnet-diag/. This caused file-not-found exceptions at runtime, which set hasRejections and caused unconditional exit 1 (bypassing --verdict-warn-only). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Surface execution errors in validation summary Previously, skills that threw exceptions (e.g. missing fixture files) were silently excluded from the verdict count. The summary showed '2/4 skills passed' with no indication that 2 other skills crashed entirely. Now the summary shows '2/6 skills passed (2 rejected due to execution errors)' and lists the specific error messages near the summary rather than buried in the middle of the log. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Reduce parallelism for infra-change evaluation runs When infrastructure changes trigger evaluation of all plugins simultaneously, the high default parallelism (5x5x5) causes API rate limits (429s) and scenario timeouts from contention. Reduce to 2x3x3 for infra-change runs only; regular single-plugin PR evaluations keep the default 5x5x5.

Reorganize plugins into domain-specific groupings (#274)
* Reorganize plugins per agreed structure (#271) Split the dotnet plugin into domain-specific plugins per discussion in #271: - dotnet: narrowed to common everyday C#/.NET coding tasks - dotnet-diag: perf investigations, debugging, incident analysis - dotnet-data: data access and Entity Framework - dotnet-aspnet, dotnet-wpf, dotnet-winforms, dotnet-maui: scaffolded empty to convey intent for future framework-specific skills Moved skills, tests, and CODEOWNERS entries accordingly.

Add dotnet-trace-collect skill for .NET performance diagnostics (#124)
* Add dotnet-trace-collect skill for .NET performance diagnostics Add a new skill that guides developers through capturing diagnostic artifacts for production .NET performance issues. Covers tool selection, data collection commands, and analysis recommendations across Windows, Linux, containers, and Kubernetes for both modern .NET and .NET Framework. Includes eval.yaml with 12 test scenarios covering high CPU, memory leaks, excessive GC, hangs, slow requests, native call stacks, Windows containers, long-running repros, and environment-specific tool trade-offs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Copilot <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove overly broad eval assertion. * Add workload context check to Step 1 Ask whether the agent is running in the context of the workload. If so, run diagnostic commands directly; otherwise provide guidance. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Prefer console tools over dotnet-monitor in K8s when in workload context When running in the context of the workload with console access, prefer dotnet-trace, dotnet-trace collect-linux, and dotnet-dump over dotnet-monitor to avoid authentication setup. Fall back to dotnet-monitor when console access is not available or it is already deployed. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Update tool reference: prefer console tools over dotnet-monitor in workload context Update dotnet-counters container comment and dotnet-monitor trade-offs to note that console tools are preferred when running in the workload context with console access. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Delegate dump collection to dump-collect skill This skill focuses on trace collection. All dump collection guidance and execution is now delegated to the dump-collect skill. References to dotnet-dump, procdump, createdump, gcore, and Task Manager for dump collection are replaced with delegation to dump-collect. Dump analysis rows removed from Step 4 analysis table since dump artifacts are handled by the other skill. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove dotnet-dump section and dump references from tool reference The entire dotnet-dump section is removed since dump collection is delegated to the dump-collect skill. Also removed dump/gcdump endpoints from dotnet-monitor REST API examples (replaced gcdump with GC trace endpoint), and cleaned up remaining procdump/dotnet-dump references in PerfView and dotnet-monitor trade-offs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Update hangs guidance: start with a trace before a dump Reorder the hangs workflow to capture a trace first. A trace can reveal livelocks, thread starvation, or partial forward progress. Only escalate to a dump if the trace does not explain the hang, which indicates a potential true deadlock. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix dotnet-trace collect profile: use dotnet-sampled-thread-time cpu-sampling is only available for collect-linux. Replace with dotnet-sampled-thread-time in the dotnet-trace collect example. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Rename dotnet-trace section header to dotnet-trace collect Clarify the section heading to distinguish dotnet-trace collect from dotnet-trace collect-linux, which has its own dedicated section. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Split tool-compatibility.md into per-tool reference files Split the monolithic tool-compatibility.md (603 lines) into 6 individual reference files, one per tool: - dotnet-counters.md (47 lines) - dotnet-trace-collect.md (66 lines) - dotnet-trace-collect-linux.md (76 lines) - dotnet-monitor.md (93 lines) - perfview.md (125 lines) - perfcollect.md (177 lines) This reduces context usage since the skill only needs to load 1-2 tool references per scenario (50-250 lines) instead of all 603 lines. The tool selection logic remains entirely in SKILL.md; references are only needed after the tool is chosen. Updated SKILL.md to replace 3 generic tool-compatibility.md links with an environment-to-reference-file lookup table. Follows the same pattern used by the dump-collect skill. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add collect-linux limitations: symbol resolution and cross-namespace Document two additional limitations for dotnet-trace collect-linux: - Native symbols must be on disk during capture for resolution - Cannot trace cross-namespace processes Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add aka.ms direct download links for dotnet-trace Add curl/wget download option using aka.ms links for Linux x64, Arm64, musl x64, and Windows x64. This avoids the need for a .NET SDK, which is useful in container environments. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove dotnet-trace report from analysis tools table Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Update evals to cover recent skill changes Updated existing scenarios: - Hang diagnosis: expect trace-first (livelock/starvation check) before escalating to dump for true deadlocks - Memory leak (Linux + .NET Framework): expect delegation to dump-collect skill instead of direct dotnet-dump commands Added new scenarios: - K8s with console access: prefer console tools over dotnet-monitor - Container without SDK: aka.ms direct download for dotnet-trace - collect-linux cross-namespace limitation awareness Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove dotnet-counters from skill dotnet-counters was causing confusion where the skill would recommend dotnet-counters but download dotnet-trace via aka.ms links. Since traces provide richer diagnostic data, remove all dotnet-counters references and focus the skill on trace collection. - Remove dotnet-counters.md reference file - Remove dotnet-counters from lookup table, container tools list, live monitoring section, and analysis table in SKILL.md Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Update K8s eval to prefer dotnet-trace over dotnet-monitor The skill recommends console-based tools (dotnet-trace) as the preferred approach when the user has console access to a container. Update the High CPU in Kubernetes scenario to match: expect dotnet-trace as primary, dotnet-monitor as alternative for no-console-access cases. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add missing context to eval prompts to prevent user prompting Several eval prompts were missing required inputs (deployment context, admin privileges, symptom, .NET version) that the skill needs to select the right tool. This caused the validator to hang waiting for clarifying questions that never come in eval mode. Changes: - Add 'running directly on a VM/server' to non-container scenarios - Add symptom to .NET 10 native stacks and container installation prompts - Add .NET version and admin access to slow requests prompt - Add admin access to PerfView triggers prompt Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Strengthen dump-collect delegation language to 'invoke' not 'delegate' The skill was using passive 'delegate to dump-collect skill' phrasing which LLMs may interpret as merely mentioning the skill rather than actually invoking it. Changed all references to use 'invoke the dump-collect skill' with explicit 'do not provide dump commands directly' in key sections. Updated eval rubrics to match. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove mention of dotnet-monitor for Windows Container CPU eval The result should be completely focused on PerfView usage and not dotnet-monitor. * Clarify StopOn triggers must fire on interesting event, not recovery Strengthened the circular buffer + StopOn guidance to explain WHY triggering on recovery is wrong: the circular buffer continuously overwrites old data, so the interesting behavior may be lost by the time collection stops. Added 'Critical' callout and 'Never trigger on recovery' in the pitfalls table. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Explain why console tools are preferred over dotnet-monitor When recommending console-based tools over dotnet-monitor in containers, explicitly state the reason: dotnet-monitor requires authentication configuration and sidecar deployment, making console tools easier to set up when you have direct access. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add kernel requirement to cross-namespace eval rubric The judge was flagging the kernel >= 6.4 with CONFIG_USER_EVENTS=y detail as oddly specific, but it is accurate per the collect-linux reference documentation. Add rubric item so the judge recognizes this as correct. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Scope dump-collect to modern .NET only, provide direct commands for .NET Framework The dump-collect skill only supports modern .NET (.NET Core 3.0+). Updated all .NET Framework references to provide dump commands directly (procdump -ma, Task Manager) instead of invoking dump-collect. Updated the Memory dumps header, decision matrix, .NET Framework sections, and the .NET Framework memory leak eval to match.

Nullable reference migration skill (#39)
* Add nullable-reference-migration skill Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance: annotate based on design intent, not warnings Annotations should reflect the intended nullability contract of each member. Deciding intent first and then fixing warnings avoids the common mistake of over-annotating with ? or scattering ! to silence the compiler. Learned from dotnet/runtime nullable annotation guidelines. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add pitfall: ?. (null-conditional) changes behavior unlike ? and ! During nullable migration it is tempting to change obj.Method() to obj?.Method() to silence a warning. Unlike ? on a type or ! on an expression, ?. changes the generated IL and silently skips the call when the value is null, which can introduce subtle regressions. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #57418, #65262, #67198 review comments. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add pitfall: adding ? to value types changes the actual type For reference types, ? is a metadata-only annotation. For value types (enums, structs, int, etc.), ? wraps the type in Nullable<T>, which changes the method signature and binary layout. This was caught as a breaking change in dotnet/runtime PR #65262 when LogLevel was accidentally made nullable. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance: Debug.Assert as compiler hint and reducing ! usage Debug.Assert(x != null) informs the nullable flow analyzer just like an if-check, eliminating the need for ! operators in the subsequent scope. Also adds guidance that if every call site of an internal method needs !, the parameter should probably be nullable instead. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #67198 and PR #67198 review feedback. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Enhance CS8618 guidance with [MemberNotNull] for helper methods When a helper method called from the constructor initializes fields, [MemberNotNull(nameof(field))] tells the compiler those fields are guaranteed non-null after the call, eliminating CS8618 warnings without resorting to ! or making fields nullable. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #67198 where this pattern eliminated many suppression operators. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance for struct default fields and post-Dispose state Struct reference-type fields are null in default(T). Annotate based on whether default is valid usage: nullable if yes, non-nullable if not. Also adds guidance that post-Dispose nullability should not weaken annotations, since post-Dispose use is a contract violation. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #528 (struct fields), nullability.md (InterfaceMapping vs CancellationToken), and PR #65262 (Dispose). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance: prioritize public API annotations over internal code Public and protected APIs define the contract consumers depend on and should be annotated first and most carefully. Internal code can tolerate ! more liberally since it does not affect callers. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #67198 review feedback. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add pitfall: do not remove ArgumentNullException checks Non-nullable parameters still need runtime null validation because callers may not have NRT enabled (other languages, older C#, suppressed warnings). Removing existing checks during migration can introduce regressions for those callers. Learned from dotnet/runtime nullability.md guidelines. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Enhance Try method annotation patterns with specific recipes Clarifies the distinction between generic and non-generic Try method out parameters: use [NotNullWhen(true)] out T? for non-generic, and [MaybeNullWhen(false)] out T for generic. Also notes that Equals(object?) overrides should use [NotNullWhen(true)]. Learned from dotnet/runtime nullability.md DO guidelines. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance for override covariance and IEquatable<T?> Override return types can be stricter (non-nullable) than the base even if the base returns T?. Also adds that reference types should implement IEquatable<T?> and IComparable<T?> since callers commonly pass null to Equals. Learned from dotnet/runtime PR #67198 and nullability.md guidelines. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add three-pass code review checklist for nullable changes Nullable PRs need broader review than a typical diff: (1) verify no behavior/IL changes, (2) review explicit annotation changes for correct contracts, (3) scan unchanged APIs whose implicit nullability changed when the nullable context was enabled. Learned from dotnet/runtime nullability.md Code Review Guidance. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add link to dotnet/runtime nullable annotation guidelines This is the authoritative internal document used when annotating the .NET libraries and contains detailed guidance on gray areas, virtual methods, struct defaults, and attribute usage. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Strengthen null validation pitfall: NRTs are compile-time only Nullable annotations do not prevent null at runtime. Callers using older C#, other .NET languages, reflection, dynamic, or the ! operator can still pass null. Emphasizes that runtime validation on public APIs remains essential for correctness and security. Learned from community blog posts (Maarten Balliauw, JetBrains) and dotnet/runtime nullability.md. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Define NRT abbreviation at first use in body text Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Note that [MaybeNull] should be rare — prefer T? when possible The .NET runtime codebase has only ~7 uses of [MaybeNull]. In most cases T? is a better choice. Reserve [MaybeNull] for edge cases like AsyncLocal<T>.Value where T? would incorrectly allow setting to null when T is non-nullable. Source: dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance to use [NotNullWhen(true)] on Equals overrides When Equals(object? obj) returns true, the argument is guaranteed non-null. Annotating with [NotNullWhen(true)] lets callers skip redundant null checks after equality tests. Source: dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance for widely-overridden virtual return types For virtual/abstract methods with many overrides, check whether existing overrides return null in practice. The .NET runtime annotated Object.ToString() as string? (overrides commonly return null) but Exception.Message as string (null overrides vanishingly rare). When in doubt, prefer T?. Source: dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines (ToString case study) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Prefer multiple [MemberNotNull] attributes over params overload The params string[] overload of MemberNotNull is not CLS-compliant and may require #pragma warning disable. Use separate attributes for each field instead. Source: dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Warn that compiler does not flag misapplied nullable attributes Attributes like [DisallowNull] on a non-nullable parameter or [MaybeNull] on a by-value input parameter are silently ignored. Even Roslyn team members get tripped up by this. Source: dotnet/roslyn#36073 (jcouv, RikkiGibson) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Warn about false safety from nullable-oblivious libraries Unannotated dependencies produce no nullable warnings at all, giving a false sense of safety. Return values from oblivious APIs should be treated as potentially null.

Generic out params: keep non-nullable with [MaybeNullWhen(false)]. Using T? on generic params would change value-type signatures to Nullable<T>. Source: dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance for unconstrained generics and LINQ null filtering For generic methods returning default on unconstrained T, use [return: MaybeNull] T instead of T? to avoid changing value-type signatures to Nullable<T>. LINQ Where(x => x != null) does not narrow T? to T. Use a WhereNotNull() helper (as Roslyn itself does) or OfType<T>().

This can surprise developers who expect var to inherit non-nullability from the right-hand side. Learned from Maarten Balliauw's nullable migration blog series. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add strategy guidance: start at the center, work outward Annotating core domain models, DTOs, and shared utilities first eliminates cascading warnings across the codebase and gives the biggest return on effort. Applies to all three rollout strategies. Learned from Maarten Balliauw's JetBrains 2025 talk and blog series. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add dedicated EF Core section with schema migration warning EF Core infers column nullability from NRT annotations. Enabling NRTs can silently generate migrations that make previously nullable columns required, risking data loss. Consolidates all EF Core guidance (navigation properties, schema impact, migration review) into a dedicated section and removes the scattered EF references. Learned from Maarten Balliauw's JetBrains 2025 talk, Damir Arh's blog, and EF Core documentation. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * EF Core: warn that #nullable disable warnings is insufficient for entity files #nullable disable warnings only suppresses compiler diagnostics but leaves the annotation context active. EF Core reads annotations via reflection, so properties without ? are still treated as required, potentially altering database schema. Use #nullable disable to fully opt entity files out. Source: dotnet/efcore#33245 (confirmed by EF team member roji). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * EF Core: add DbSet<T> initialization guidance DbSet properties should remain non-nullable since EF Core always initializes them. EF Core 7.0+ suppresses CS8618 automatically; older versions can use = null! or expression body => Set<T>(). Source: official EF Core NRT docs page. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * EF Core: expand navigation property guidance with three approaches Replace single-sentence guidance with the three patterns from the official EF Core NRT docs: (a) non-nullable with null!, (b) nullable when code checks load state, (c) non-nullable wrapping nullable backing field that throws. Also note collection navigations must always be non-nullable (empty, never null). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * EF Core: add LINQ query guidance for optional navigations EF Core translates LINQ to SQL so null navigations don't throw at runtime, but the compiler still warns. Use ! in Where/Include expressions to suppress false positives. From official EF Core docs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * ASP.NET Core: MVC treats non-nullable properties as [Required] When NRTs are enabled, ASP.NET Core MVC/Web API implicitly adds [Required(AllowEmptyStrings = true)] to every non-nullable reference type property in DTOs and view models. This can cause previously accepted requests to return 400 Bad Request. Controllable via SuppressImplicitRequiredAttributeForNonNullableReferenceTypes.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * ASP.NET Core: System.Text.Json RespectNullableAnnotations and limits STJ (.NET 9+) can enforce NRT annotations at serialization time via RespectNullableAnnotations, but cannot enforce collection element nullability (List<string> vs List<string?> are indistinguishable in IL), top-level types, or generic properties. Document the opt-in and its limitations. Source: official STJ nullable annotations docs, aspnetcore#57234 (confirmed by eiriktsarpalis and terrajobst). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * ASP.NET Core: warn about #nullable disable warnings on model files Same pitfall as EF Core: #nullable disable warnings only suppresses compiler diagnostics but leaves annotations active. MVC reads them via reflection to infer [Required], so model files not yet migrated must use #nullable disable to fully opt out. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Expand rollout strategy guidance and add suppression analysis use case Add 'analyzing existing suppressions' to When to Use section. Expand the start-at-center strategy with guidance to work outward through layers and keep PRs scoped per project or layer. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add helper extension methods section with WhereNotNull Add a Helper Extension Methods section with WhereNotNull for both reference and value types. This is the pattern used by the Roslyn compiler codebase to filter nulls with correct type narrowing, which .Where(x => x != null) cannot provide. Update the inline reference in Step 3 to link to the new section. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add incremental build checkpoints to NRT migration workflow Add explicit build checkpoint instructions after Steps 2-6 so the AI builds and checks warning counts after each phase rather than attempting all fixes blind. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add commit strategy guidance to NRT migration workflow Tell the AI when to commit during the migration: at each logical boundary (enable, dereference fixes, annotations, attributes, cleanup) to keep diffs reviewable and prevent lost work. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add 'when to ask the user' guidance for annotation decisions Tell the AI to ask the user before changing public API contracts, deciding nullable vs required for ambiguous properties, or choosing between null checks and suppressions when design intent is unclear. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add inline anti-pattern callouts with warning markers Add prominent ❌ and ⚠️ callouts inline in Steps 3 and 4 where dangerous mistakes are most likely: using ?. to silence warnings, sprinkling !, adding ? to value types, letting warnings drive annotations, and removing existing null argument validation. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add decision flowchart for resolving nullable warnings Add a structured decision tree in Step 3 that guides the AI through each warning: is null valid by design? Can you prove non-null? This prevents defaulting to ! or over-annotating with ?. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add scope-based prioritization guidance to Step 3 Tell the AI to work in dependency order (core models first, then consumers) and prioritize public/protected members within each file to minimize cascading warnings. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add verify-before-claiming guidance to validation step Tell the AI to verify annotations match design intent, check for accidental ?. operators, confirm no removed null checks, and audit ! usage before reporting the migration as complete. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add conditional behavior guidance based on project type Tell the AI to tailor its approach based on whether the project is a library (public API contracts first), application (boundaries first), or test project (more liberal use of !). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Flag public API methods missing runtime null validation Tell the AI to check for missing ArgumentNullException guards on non-nullable public/protected parameters during annotation. Without runtime checks, null passed at runtime causes NRE instead of ANE. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add Purpose paragraph to match recommended SKILL.md structure Add a one-paragraph Purpose description under the top-level heading, describing the outcome of using this skill. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Couple notes * Add missing reference links to More Info section Add links to Nullable reference types overview, C# language reference page, and null-forgiving operator reference. These are foundational docs referenced throughout the skill. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add breaking changes section for library NRT annotations Warn that incorrect NRT annotations are source-breaking changes for library consumers. Covers implicit non-nullability, parameters that should be nullable, return types, and versioning guidance. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add guidance: methods tolerating null should accept nullable params If a method handles null gracefully (returns null, returns default, returns a failure result) rather than throwing, the parameter should be T?, not T. Based on BCL conventions and NodaTime design discussions. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Make build/test references build-system agnostic Not all repos use dotnet build/test directly — some use build scripts, msbuild, cake, nuke, etc. Add build/test command as optional inputs, update Step 1 to detect the build system, and replace hardcoded 'dotnet build'/'dotnet test' with generic 'build'/'test' in checkpoints and validation checklist. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove cake/nuke from build script examples These are uncommon enough to not warrant explicit mention. Keep the list focused on what an agent would actually encounter. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Recommend WarningsAsErrors in project file instead of CLI flag <WarningsAsErrors>nullable</WarningsAsErrors> in the .csproj or Directory.Build.props permanently prevents nullable regressions, which is better than relying on a CLI flag that CI might miss. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Track and document breaking changes for public libraries When annotating a public library, the AI should create a nullable-breaking-changes.md listing all public API changes that could affect consumers (return types narrowed/widened, parameters changed, value type nullability, new guards). This file serves as a review artifact and basis for release notes. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add trigger phrases to skill description for discovery Add CS8602, CS8618, CS86xx, #nullable enable, annotating APIs, and null-forgiving operator keywords so agents discover this skill for a wider range of nullable-related user requests. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Move framework-specific sections to references/ for progressive disclosure Move EF Core, ASP.NET Core, breaking changes, and helper extension method content into references/ files. SKILL.md retains one-line summaries with links so the agent loads detailed content only when relevant. Reduces SKILL.md from 218 to 194 lines. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add NRT readiness scanner script Add scripts/Scan-NullableReadiness.ps1, a PowerShell Core script that scans a project or solution and reports NRT migration status: project settings (Nullable, LangVersion, TargetFramework, WarningsAsErrors) and source-level counts (#nullable directives, ! operators, #pragma CS86xx suppressions). Supports -Path, -Json, and -Recurse parameters. Update SKILL.md Steps 1 and 6 to reference the script as an optional automation step. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix strict mode .Count errors in Scan-NullableReadiness.ps1 Wrap pipeline results in @() before accessing .Count to avoid 'property Count cannot be found' errors under Set-StrictMode -Version Latest when a pipeline returns a single object instead of an array. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add automated tests for Scan-NullableReadiness.ps1 Test script runs the scanner against three fixture projects: - nrt-disabled: no <Nullable>, has ! operators and #pragma suppressions - nrt-enabled: <Nullable>enable, clean code - nrt-partial: <Nullable>enable but files with #nullable disable and ! Validates JSON output matches expected NRT readiness state (19 assertions). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Recommend clean builds for validation checkpoints Incremental builds only recompile changed files, hiding nullable warnings in untouched files. All build checkpoints should use clean builds (e.g., --no-incremental) to surface all warnings. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Move nullable-reference-migration to src/dotnet/ layout Align with upstream repo restructuring that moved skills and tests under src/dotnet/. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Improve ! operator counting by stripping comments and strings The scanner now removes block comments, line comments, verbatim strings, interpolated strings, and regular strings before counting null-forgiving operators. This eliminates false positives from ! in prose like 'Important!' or 'Value required!'. Tests updated with exact assertions and fixtures enriched with ! in comments, XML docs, and string literals to verify filtering. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix misleading 'var is always nullable' wording var does not inherently introduce nullability — the inferred type carries nullability from the right-hand side expression. Updated the pitfall description to reflect this accurately. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Make STJ RespectNullableAnnotations limitations more explicit Clarify that the feature is opt-in, affects both serialization and deserialization, and explicitly list what it does not cover: collection elements, dictionary values, top-level types, and generic type parameters. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add caveat that Debug.Assert is stripped from Release builds Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Clarify that required does not enforce during deserialization The required keyword is a compile-time and object-initializer constraint. It does not replace runtime validation unless the serializer explicitly supports it (e.g., STJ with [JsonRequired]). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add explicit version callouts for required, DbSet, JsonRequired Consistently tag version requirements so the skill adapts across repos targeting different .NET versions: - required (C# 11+) on all mentions - EF Core 7.0+ (.NET 7) for DbSet CS8618 suppression - [JsonRequired] (.NET 7+) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add DTO vs domain model nullability guidance DTOs should be nullable by default (they cross trust boundaries), domain models should prefer non-nullable invariants. This distinction is where migrations most often go wrong. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add gray area heuristics for parameter nullability decisions From dotnet/runtime nullability guidelines: when a parameter is neither validated nor documented for null, check usage patterns in the codebase, whether null acts as a default/nop, and whether similar methods accept null. When in doubt, prefer nullable. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Never infer nullability intent from usage frequency or naming Explicit guard against AI hallucination: if intent is not clear from code or documentation, ask the user rather than guessing. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Strengthen serialization bypass warning in pitfalls table Reworded to anchor the rule: serializers bypass constructors, non-nullable properties on DTOs do not imply runtime safety. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Stop and ask user if lang version or TFM is insufficient for NRTs If the project targets C# 7.x or a framework that defaults below C# 8.0, explicitly inform the user what needs to change and ask whether to update or abort. Do not silently proceed. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add = null! guidance for late-initialized fields in NRT skill Add recommended technique for CS8618 warnings on fields set after construction: use = null! on the field declaration instead of adding ! at every use site. Document the pattern in the CS8618 table row, the annotation decision flowchart, and the Step 3 guidance section. Motivated by exercising the skill on System.Text.RegularExpressions, where = null! reduced ! operator count from 423 to 178 compared to the original 2019 NRT annotation PR. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Categorize ! operators as null!/default! vs assertions in scanner Break down the ! operator count into two categories: - null!/default! initializers (safe, expected for late-initialized fields) - assertions (value! patterns that warrant scrutiny) This gives a more nuanced readiness assessment — a project with 30 null! and 5 assertions is in better shape than one with 35 assertions, even though the total is similar. Update fixtures with null!/default! patterns and add 6 new test assertions (25 total, up from 19). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add pre-migration effort estimate for CS8618 warnings Count uninitialised reference-type fields and auto-properties as a rough predictor of CS8618 warnings before NRT is enabled. Excludes value types, events, const, and 'required' properties. Shown only when NRT is not yet enabled, labeled as approximate. In the corefx regex migration, CS8618 was 47% of all warnings (236 of 502), making this the single most useful pre-migration signal. Adds 3 test assertions (28 total). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add per-file ! breakdown in scanner output Show null!/default! vs assertion counts for each flagged file in both human-readable and JSON output. This helps reviewers quickly see which files have mostly safe initializers vs genuine assertions that warrant scrutiny. Example: 'RegexCompiler.cs: 31 ! (24 null!/default!, 7 assertions)' tells the reviewer only 7 uses need attention, not 31. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Show per-file uninit fields pre-migration, suppress post-migration Flag files with >5 uninitialised reference-type fields in 'Files needing attention' so the pre-migration report shows where the most CS8618 work will be. Suppress this metric when NRT is already enabled since it's no longer actionable. Also skip empty lines in per-file output when a file only triggered the uninit threshold but NRT is enabled. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Context-aware section headings in scanner output Replace generic 'Files needing attention' with context-dependent labels: - Pre-migration (NRT not enabled): 'Migration work needed' - Post-migration with remaining directives: 'Remaining cleanup' - Post-migration clean: 'Suppression audit (Step 6)' — frames ! operators as review candidates, not problems Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove Step 6 reference from scanner output to avoid sync issues Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add before/after example output to scanner script header Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Advocate RespectNullableAnnotations as best practice for .NET 9+ Reframe guidance from neutral opt-in to prescriptive best practice, add motivation for why it matters, and recommend companion setting RespectRequiredConstructorParameters. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add zero-IL-change principle as hard rule for NRT migration Add prominent top-level principle: NRT migration must never change runtime behavior or generated IL. Missing null guards should be flagged as TODO comments (with user consent), not added inline. Update the existing null validation guidance to align. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add TFM caveat to Debug.Assert null-state guidance Debug.Assert acts as a nullable flow-analysis hint only on .NET Core 3.0+ where it has [DoesNotReturnIf(false)]. On .NET Framework/netstandard2.0 it lacks this annotation and does not affect null-state analysis. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Revert Debug.Assert TFM caveat The skill targets .NET Core 3.0+ where Debug.Assert has [DoesNotReturnIf(false)]. No need to document .NET Framework behavior since we don't encourage NRTs on older TFMs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add return-type semantic nullability guidance to NRT skill Round-trip experiment on Dapper (51 files, 984 warnings) revealed the agent systematically removed ? from 40 public return types (OrDefault, ExecuteScalar) to satisfy the compiler, but those methods can return null by design. Added explicit guidance that return types must reflect semantic nullability, not just compiler satisfaction, with specific patterns to watch for. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Strip string literals before comments in scanner Reorder the regex passes so strings are removed before comments. A string like "http://..." contains // that was previously mis-parsed as a line comment, corrupting downstream text. Add a URL-in-string test case to the nrt-enabled fixture. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add NRT skill guidance from real-world evaluation Tested the skill against NimblePros/eShopOnWeb (ASP.NET Core + EF Core). Stripped NRT annotations from 44 files, re-annotated using the skill, and compared against the originals. Found 3 areas for improvement: ef-core.md: - Add guidance to always pair #pragma warning disable CS8618 with #pragma warning restore CS8618 to prevent suppression leakage aspnet-core.md: - Add Razor Pages [BindProperty] initialization guidance - Add collection property default initialization guidance - Call out the ?.+! anti-pattern (contradictory null handling) SKILL.md: - Add guard clause library awareness (Ardalis.GuardClauses, Dawn.Guard use [NotNull] attributes that narrow null state — avoid redundant !) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Rename skill to migrate-nullable-references, wire scanner tests into eval.yaml, merge main - Rename nullable-reference-migration -> migrate-nullable-references per CONTRIBUTING.md naming convention (lead with action verb) - Update YAML front-matter name field - Update scanner script and test script references to new directory name - Add scanner script eval scenario to eval.yaml using test fixtures - Merge latest main for CI/eval infrastructure updates Fixes #38 Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove en-us locale from learn.microsoft.com URLs in NRT skill Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove scanner eval scenario (script tests stay in Test-ScanNullableReadiness.ps1) The scanner script scenario doesn't work as an eval scenario because the baseline run has no access to skill resources (source: files aren't resolved when skill=null). Scanner tests are validated separately via Test-ScanNullableReadiness.ps1. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Improve eval rubric for correctness and fix code formatting Replace generic throughput rubric with 5 correctness-focused criteria: - Value-type avoidance (int, bool, DateTime) - Nullable return types for FirstOrDefault methods - Late-init field handling (_header in CsvExporter) - Interface/implementation consistency - Zero-warning build Also fix C# code formatting in setup files (namespace/class declarations were collapsed onto single lines). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Improve migrate-nullable-references skill routing and deduplication - Add structured USE FOR / DO NOT USE FOR / INVOKES to description - Add multi-project solution migration order note in Step 2 - Deduplicate serialization/DTO pitfall (cross-ref Step 4) - Shorten redundant ArgumentNullException pitfall row Multi-model validation: Sonnet 4.8/5, GPT-5.1 4.6/5, Haiku 4.8/5 (avg 4.73) No regressions detected. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add minimal API parameter optionality guidance per halter73 review Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix contradiction in CS86xx fix guidance per eerhardt review The warning fix table recommended adding null checks/guards, contradicting the zero-runtime-behavior-change rule in line 35. Reworded to prioritize annotation-only fixes (? and !) and note that null checks change behavior. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Skill: prefer [NotNullWhen(true)] over ! at call sites When a boolean-returning helper guarantees a nullable parameter is non-null, annotating the parameter with [NotNullWhen(true)] is better than sprinkling ! at every call site. This is metadata-only (no behavior change) and gives the compiler real flow information. Based on feedback from reviewing skill-guided NRT migration output on dotnet/roslyn#58107 — the agent used ! without comment instead of annotating the helper method. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Remove WhereNotNull helper extensions; refine skill scope - Delete helper-extensions.md (WhereNotNull was rejected as a BCL API and is only used internally in Roslyn) - Update LINQ guidance to recommend OfType<T>() instead - Add 'fixing a handful of warnings' to DO NOT USE FOR in description Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Rename Scan-NullableReadiness to Get-NullableReadiness per convention Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add ASP.NET Core + EF Core eval scenario for NRT migration Exercises EF Core navigation property nullability, DbSet handling, and ASP.NET model validation behavior changes when enabling NRTs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Add file_not_contains assertion and file-by-file eval scenario Add file_not_contains assertion type to skill-validator, mirroring file_contains but asserting the value is absent. Includes 3 tests. Add eval scenario testing file-by-file NRT migration: agent must modify only the targeted file while leaving others unchanged. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Fix YAML frontmatter: use block scalar for description with colons The colons in USE FOR:/DO NOT USE FOR:/INVOKES: caused YAML parse failures in skill-validator. Use > block scalar syntax per lewing review. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Strengthen CS8603 return-type guidance and add return null! anti-pattern Clarify that non-nullable return type is a promise to callers. Add explicit warning against return null!/default! pattern. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Extract nullable attributes table to optional reference Move the System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis attributes table from Step 5 inline content to references/nullable-attributes.md, reducing the core skill by ~500 tokens. The inline step retains a summary listing the key attribute names so the agent knows what's available and when to load the reference. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Tweak ASP.NET/EF eval scenario prompt wording Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Move skill to plugins/tests layout, add CODEOWNERS for migrate-nullable-references Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Address review: remove spoon-fed build commands, refocus rubric on skill value - Remove explicit 'Build with:' lines from eval prompts so the skill's Step 1 (discover build command) is actually exercised - Reword file-by-file rubric to test the skill's migration strategy rather than general instruction compliance Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Larry Ewing <lewing@microsoft.com> |
