What this skill does
.NET Backend Development Patterns Master C#/.NET patterns for building production-grade APIs, MCP servers, and enterprise backends with modern best practices (2024/2025). Use this skill when Developing new .NET Web APIs or MCP servers Reviewing C# code for quality and performance Designing service architectures with dependency injection Implementing caching strategies with Redis Writing unit and integration tests Optimizing database access with EF Core or Dapper Configuring applications with IOptions pattern Handling errors and implementing resilience patterns Do not use this skill when The project is not using .NET or C# You only need frontend or client guidance The task is unrelated to backend architecture Instructions Define architecture boundaries, modules, and layering. Apply DI, async patterns, and resilience strategies. Validate data access performance and caching. Add tests and observability for critical flows.
