stimuli:
  - name: Explain misleading ResolveProjectReferences time
    prompt: Our team found that ResolveProjectReferences is the most expensive target in our build. Review the project
      structure and the performance report, then advise whether this is a real bottleneck and what we should actually
      optimize.

          pattern: (Task Performance Summary|task.?self.?time|wall.?clock|wait)
      - type: prompt
    rubric:
      - Explained that ResolveProjectReferences time is misleading because it includes wait time for dependent project
        builds
      - Recommended using Task Performance Summary instead of Target Performance Summary for accurate profiling
      - Identified that the real bottlenecks are in actual tasks like Csc, RAR, or Copy — not ResolveProjectReferences
        itself
      - Advised against trying to optimize or skip ResolveProjectReferences directly
