The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈5
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 19
Start from the app model and deployment target, then choose the smallest correct SDK and target framework set.
- Distinctive: line 20
Use solution folders and project names that reflect bounded contexts or product areas, not temporary implementation details.
- Distinctive: line 22
Create test projects and CI hooks early so new projects do not drift into unverified templates.
- Distinctive: line 23
Prefer project references and composition over circular dependencies or utility dumping grounds.
- Distinctive: line 24
Document the local build, test, and run path in repo docs or AGENTS.md when the workflow is not obvious.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
.NET Project Setup
Trigger On
- creating a new .NET solution or restructuring an existing one
- setting up
Directory.Build.props, shared package management, or repo-wide defaults - defining project layout for apps, libraries, and test projects
Workflow
- Start from the app model and deployment target, then choose the smallest correct SDK and target framework set.
- Use solution folders and project names that reflect bounded contexts or product areas, not temporary implementation details.
- Centralize shared build settings, analyzer rules, nullable context, and package versions where it reduces duplication without hiding important differences.
- Create test projects and CI hooks early so new projects do not drift into unverified templates.
- Prefer project references and composition over circular dependencies or utility dumping grounds.
- Document the local build, test, and run path in repo docs or
AGENTS.mdwhen the workflow is not obvious.
Deliver
- a coherent solution structure
- shared build defaults that are easy to reason about
- starter quality and testing hooks for future work
Validate
- projects have explicit responsibility boundaries
- shared MSBuild settings do not accidentally override platform-specific needs
- a new contributor can build and test the repo without guessing

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
