Repository Instructions

This repository contains skill plugins under plugins/. Each subdirectory in plugins/ is an independent plugin (e.g., plugins/dotnet-msbuild, plugins/dotnet).

Build

When you modify skills, run the agentic-workflows build script to validate and regenerate compiled artifacts.

pwsh agentic-workflows/<plugin>/build.ps1

This validates skill frontmatter and recompiles knowledge lock files. Always commit the regenerated lock files together with your changes.

Skill-Validator

Don't care much about backwards-compatibility for this tool. Consumers understand that the shape is constantly changing.

When modifying the evaluation pipeline (evaluation.yml), results JSON schema (Models.cs), or the skill-validator evaluation logic, review and update eng/skill-validator/InvestigatingResults.md to keep the failure investigation guidance, schema documentation, and example scripts in sync.
