Understand and work with the Roslyn analyzers shipped with Corvus.Text.Json. Covers 10 production diagnostics (CTJ001-CTJ010) for correct and performant V5 code, the CTJ-NAV refactoring for navigating from types to JSON Schema definitions, and the analyzer packaging convention. USE FOR: understanding what each analyzer checks, writing code that passes analyzer checks, packaging analyzer DLLs. DO NOT USE FOR: the 25 migration analyzers (use corvus-v4-migration for the workflow and CVJ001-CVJ025 reference).
Run, interpret, and maintain BenchmarkDotNet benchmarks for JSON Schema validation and query languages. Covers the B/ (frozen baseline) vs C/ (current) directory convention, stale Job-* cleanup, --buildTimeout, result file polling, regenerating C/ models after codegen changes, and JSONata/JMESPath/JsonLogic/JSONPath benchmarks. USE FOR: running benchmarks, interpreting results, regenerating benchmark models, troubleshooting BDN issues, adding new benchmark schemas. DO NOT USE FOR: general .NET performance analysis (use the analyzing-dotnet-performance skill).
Test Corvus.JsonSchema against the JSON Schema Test Suite using Bowtie, the cross-implementation meta-validator. Covers local package building, configuring a local Bowtie checkout to use locally-built packages, running the test suite via Docker/Podman containers, interpreting results, the iteration loop, and teardown. Both V4 (dotnet-corvus-jsonschema-v4engine) and V5 (dotnet-corvus-jsonschema-v5engine) implementations are supported. USE FOR: running Bowtie conformance suites against local changes, setting up the local development loop, interpreting Bowtie failure reports, testing schema dialect compliance (Draft 4 through 2020-12). DO NOT USE FOR: running the in-repo MSTest test suite (use corvus-build-and-test), regenerating test classes from the submodule (use corvus-test-suite-regeneration).
Write allocation-efficient buffer code in Corvus.JsonSchema using the codebase's established three-tier pooling pattern: stackalloc → ArrayPool → ThreadStatic caches. Covers threshold constants, the rent/return pattern, UTF-8-first processing, thread-local writer and workspace caches, and PooledByteBufferWriter. USE FOR: writing any code that needs temporary byte/char buffers, adding new pooled caches, working with UTF-8 data, avoiding heap allocation on hot paths. DO NOT USE FOR: choosing which ref-struct collection to use (use corvus-low-alloc-data-structures), document model internals (use corvus-parsed-documents-and-memory).
Build, test, and run the Corvus.JsonSchema solution correctly. Covers multi-targeting (net9.0/net10.0/net481/netstandard2.0), mandatory test category filters, solution file selection, running specific test classes or methods, writing new tests, and diagnosing common build/test failures. USE FOR: building the solution, running tests, writing new test files, diagnosing test failures, understanding TFM targeting, finding the right test project for a feature area. DO NOT USE FOR: benchmark execution (use corvus-benchmarks), code generation (use corvus-codegen), test suite regeneration (use corvus-test-suite-regeneration).
Generate strongly-typed C# from JSON Schema using the Roslyn source generator or the corvusjson CLI tool. Covers the JsonSchemaTypeGenerator attribute, CLI options, naming heuristics, AdditionalFiles registration, config file format, MSBuild properties, and troubleshooting generated output. USE FOR: generating types from schemas, configuring the source generator or CLI tool, understanding naming heuristics, inspecting generated output, troubleshooting generation issues. DO NOT USE FOR: modifying the generator internals (use corvus-keywords-and-validation), running benchmarks (use corvus-benchmarks).
Build, serve, and maintain the Corvus.Text.Json documentation website and the six Blazor WASM playgrounds (JSON Schema, JSONata, JMESPath, JsonLogic, JSONPath, YAML). Covers the 12-step build.ps1 pipeline (steps 0-11, with sub-steps), generated vs hand-authored file boundaries, incremental rebuild patterns, XmlDocToMarkdown API doc generation, SCSS/JS asset compilation, and playground startup with Monaco editor. USE FOR: building or previewing the docs site, modifying website content or theme, updating API documentation, running or modifying playgrounds. DO NOT USE FOR: library development (use other skills).
Translate ECMAScript 262 /u mode regular expressions to .NET regex patterns. Covers semantic differences between ECMAScript and .NET regex engines, supplementary code point handling via surrogate pairs, Unicode property escapes, backreference conditionals, character class strategies, and strict /u mode validation. USE FOR: understanding regex translation in generated validation code, debugging pattern matching issues in JSON Schema pattern/patternProperties, extending regex support for new Unicode properties or constructs. DO NOT USE FOR: general .NET regex usage, writing custom regex patterns.
