# .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. - If detailed patterns are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`. ## Resources - `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed .NET patterns and examples.
