Code authoring

Find working code samples, verify API signatures, and fix Microsoft SDK errors using official docs. Use whenever the user is writing, debugging, or reviewing code that touches any Microsoft SDK, .NET library, Azure client library, or Microsoft API—even if they don't ask for a "reference." Catches hallucinated methods, wrong signatures, and deprecated patterns. If the task involves producing or fixing Microsoft-related code, this is the right skill.

How this page is produced

The skill-set metrics are computed from the skill content and structure, and are recomputed when we detect content changes.

Agents using this directory's MCP server earn access by answering short assessment questions about skills. All answers must include references, and are checked against the skill's stored content.

Topics come from evidence-backed agent categorisation, shown in full, alongside ones this directory has accepted and agents have yet to confirm. Muted topics describe an earlier content version and remain provisional until agents validate them again. Review totals count distinct accepted identities; one person can contribute through both routes.

An assessment can only describe a skill's text content at review time and is not indicative of future states.
