Analyze MSBuild binary logs to diagnose build failures. USE FOR: build errors that are unclear from console output, diagnosing cascading failures across multi-project builds, tracing MSBuild target execution order, and generally any MSBuild build issues. Requires an existing .binlog file. DO NOT USE FOR: generating binlogs (use binlog-generation), non-MSBuild build systems.

Analyzing MSBuild Failures with Binary Logs

This skill diagnoses MSBuild build failures from a .binlog file. The preferred path uses the binlog MCP server (Microsoft.AITools.BinlogMcp, exposed under the binlog MCP namespace) which is bundled with this plugin. If the MCP server is not available, fall back to the binlog replay workflow at the bottom.

Primary workflow — binlog MCP

The MCP server exposes structured tools for inspecting a .binlog without parsing text logs. Call them directly instead of replaying the binlog to a text file. Call tools/list for the MCP first if you are unsure which tools are available.

Important constraints:

The .binlog file is a binary format — do NOT try to cat, head, strings, or read it directly. Use only the MCP tools to query it.
The original source/project files might or might NOT be available on disk. Project files (.csproj, .props, .targets, App.config, etc.) - if you cannot locate them on disk, they can only be read from within the binlog via MCP tools (e.g., embedded/source file retrieval).
Synthesize findings as you go. Do not spend all available time investigating — once you have enough evidence, present your conclusions. A partial answer with clear reasoning is better than timing out mid-investigation.

Use the available MCP server tools to query the binary log for:

Build errors and warnings
MSBuild properties and their values
MSBuild items (PackageReference, ProjectReference, etc.)
Project evaluation data
Target execution details
File contents embedded in the binlog

Fallback workflow — text-log replay (when MCP is unavailable)

Use this only when the MCP server cannot be started (for example, on an older SDK or in an offline environment without access to the dotnet-tools NuGet feed).

Replay the binlog to text logs

dotnet msbuild build.binlog -noconlog \
  -fl  -flp:v=diag;logfile=full.log;performancesummary \
  -fl1 -flp1:errorsonly;logfile=errors.log \
  -fl2 -flp2:warningsonly;logfile=warnings.log

PowerShell note: Use -flp:"v=diag;logfile=full.log;performancesummary" (quoted semicolons).

Search the text logs

cat errors.log
grep -n -B2 -A2 "CS0246" full.log
grep -i "CoreCompile.*FAILED\|Build FAILED\|error MSB" full.log
grep 'Target "CoreCompile"' full.log | grep -oP 'project "[^"]*"'

Generating a binlog (only if none exists)

dotnet build /bl:build.binlog

dotnet-pinvoke

dotnet/skills

Correctly call native (C/C++) libraries from .NET using P/Invoke and LibraryImport. Covers function signatures, string marshalling, memory lifetime, SafeHandle, and cross-platform patterns. USE FOR: writing new P/Invoke or LibraryImport declarations, reviewing or debugging existing native interop code, wrapping a C or C++ library for use in .NET, diagnosing crashes, memory leaks, or corruption at the managed/native boundary. DO NOT USE FOR: COM interop, C++/CLI mixed-mode assemblies, or pure managed code with no native dependencies.

extension-points

dotnet/skills

Guide for MSBuild extensibility: CustomBefore/CustomAfter hooks, wildcard imports with alphabetic ordering, import gating with control properties, NuGet package build extension layout (build/buildTransitive), and the MicrosoftCommonPropsHasBeenImported guard. USE FOR: diagnosing and fixing MSBuild import and hook patterns, reviewing and fixing extension point anti-patterns in Directory.Build files, fixing missing Exists() guards on imports that break fresh clones, fixing NuGet package hooks being silently dropped instead of appended, making build targets extensible for other projects, injecting custom logic into the build pipeline, creating NuGet packages that extend the build, conditionally disabling imports. DO NOT USE FOR: target authoring patterns (use target-authoring), props vs targets placement (use directory-build-organization), general anti-patterns (use msbuild-antipatterns), non-MSBuild build systems.

msbuild-antipatterns

dotnet/skills

Catalog of MSBuild anti-patterns with detection rules and fix recipes. USE FOR: reviewing, auditing, or cleaning up .csproj, .vbproj, .fsproj, .props, .targets, or .proj files. Each anti-pattern has a symptom, explanation, and concrete BAD→GOOD transformation. Covers Exec-instead-of-built-in-task, unquoted conditions, hardcoded paths, restating SDK defaults, scattered package versions, and more. DO NOT USE FOR: non-MSBuild build systems (npm, Maven, CMake, etc.), project migration to SDK-style (use msbuild-modernization).

assertion-quality

dotnet/skills

Analyzes the variety and depth of assertions across test suites in any language. Use when the user asks to evaluate assertion quality, find shallow tests, identify assertion-free tests (no assertions or only trivial ones like Assert.IsNotNull / toBeTruthy()), flag self-referential or tautological assertions, measure assertion diversity, or audit whether tests verify different facets of behavior. Polyglot: .NET, Python, TS/JS, Java, Go, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Kotlin, PowerShell, C++. DO NOT USE FOR: writing new tests (use code-testing-agent / writing-mstest-tests), mutation reasoning about whether tests would catch a bug (use test-gap-analysis), or a general severity-ranked anti-pattern audit (use test-anti-patterns), fixing or rewriting assertions, or writing, fixing, or modernizing MSTest tests, assertions, or attributes (use writing-mstest-tests).

test-anti-patterns

dotnet/skills

Audits an existing test file or suite in any language for anti-patterns and quality issues — produces a severity-ranked report (Critical/Warning/Info). INVOKE whenever asked to audit or review tests, find what's wrong with a suite, judge whether tests are any good, or check for: tests that pass but verify nothing, missing assertions, swallowed exceptions, self-comparing / tautological assertions, coverage-touching tests, broad exceptions, flaky or order-dependent tests (Thread.Sleep, DateTime.Now, shared state), duplicated tests, or magic values — in .NET, Python/pytest, TS/Jest, Java, Go, Ruby or C++. DO NOT USE FOR: writing new tests (use code-testing-agent, or writing-mstest-tests for MSTest); running tests (use run-tests); migration; assertion-diversity metrics (use assertion-quality); coverage/CRAP metrics (use coverage-analysis); the testsmells.org academic catalog (use test-smell-detection); fixing or modernizing MSTest tests, assertions, attributes, or lifecycle (use writing-mstest-tests).

coverage-analysis

dotnet/skills

Project-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.
