OpenCode (https://opencode.ai/) is an open-source AI coding assistant that supports the same skill/agent format. These skills and agents are fully compatible with OpenCode.

Manual Installation

#### 1.Clone the repository:

```bash

git clone https://github.com/Aaronontheweb/dotnet-skills.git

cd dotnet-skills

```

#### 2.Install skills:

```bash

# Create OpenCode skills directory

mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/skills

# Install each skill (skill name must match frontmatter 'name' field)

for skill_file in $(find skills -name "SKILL.md"); do

skill_name=$(grep -m1 "^name:" "$skill_file" | sed 's/name: *//')

mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/skills/$skill_name

cp "$skill_file" ~/.config/opencode/skills/$skill_name/SKILL.md

done

```

#### 3.Install agents:

```bash

# Create OpenCode agents directory

mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/agents

# Install each agent

for agent_file in agents/\*.md; do

cp "$agent_file" ~/.config/opencode/agents/

done

```

#### 4. Restart OpenCode to load the new skills and agents.

AI-Assisted Installation

If you're using OpenCode or another AI coding assistant, you can ask it to install these skills automatically:

```

Install the .NET skills from https://github.com/Aaronontheweb/dotnet-skills to my OpenCode configuration

```

> The AI will:

```

1. Clone the repository
2. Extract skill names from SKILL.md frontmatter
3. Create properly structured directories in ~/.config/opencode/skills/
4. Copy agent files to ~/.config/opencode/agents/

Installed Locations

| Type | Location |

|------|----------|

| Skills | ~/.config/opencode/skills//SKILL.md |

| Agents | ~/.config/opencode/agents/.md |

Compatibility Note

The SKILL.md and agent markdown formats follow the Agent Skills open standard (https://opencode.ai/docs/skills/), which is compatible with multiple AI coding tools including Claude Code and OpenCode.

```

Prerequisite: install/sync the dotnet-skills plugin in your assistant runtime (Claude Code or OpenCode) so the skill IDs below resolve.

To get consistent skill usage in downstream repos, add a small router snippet in AGENTS.md (OpenCode) or CLAUDE.md (Claude Code). These snippets tell the assistant which skills to use for common tasks.

Readable snippet (copy/paste)

```markdown

# Agent Guidance: dotnet-skills

IMPORTANT: Prefer retrieval-led reasoning over pretraining for any .NET work.

Workflow: skim repo patterns -> consult dotnet-skills by name -> implement smallest-change -> note conflicts.

Routing (invoke by name)

• C# / code quality: modern-csharp-coding-standards, csharp-concurrency-patterns, api-design, type-design-performance
• ASP.NET Core / Web (incl. Aspire): aspire-service-defaults, aspire-integration-testing, transactional-emails
• Data: efcore-patterns, database-performance
• DI / config: dependency-injection-patterns, microsoft-extensions-configuration
• Testing: testcontainers-integration-tests, playwright-blazor-testing, snapshot-testing

Quality gates (use when applicable)

• dotnet-slopwatch: after substantial new/refactor/LLM-authored code
• crap-analysis: after tests added/changed in complex code

Specialist agents

• dotnet-concurrency-specialist, dotnet-performance-analyst, dotnet-benchmark-designer, akka-net-specialist, docfx-specialist

```

Agents are AI personas with deep domain expertise. They're invoked automatically when Claude Code detects relevant tasks.

| Agent | Expertise |

| --------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| akka-net-specialist | Actor systems, clustering, persistence, Akka.Streams, message patterns |

| dotnet-concurrency-specialist | Threading, async/await, race conditions, deadlock analysis |

| dotnet-benchmark-designer | BenchmarkDotNet setup, custom benchmarks, measurement strategies |

| dotnet-performance-analyst | Profiler analysis, benchmark interpretation, regression detection |

| docfx-specialist | DocFX builds, API documentation, markdown linting |
