What it does

Mcaf Dotnet Archunitnet is an agent skill from managedcode/Storage. Use the open-source free ArchUnitNET library for architecture rules in .NET tests. Use when a repo needs richer architecture assertions than lightweight fluent rule libraries usually provide.

Its SKILL.md is about 980 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/archunitnet.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires a .NET test project; supports dedicated integrations for xUnit, xUnit v3, MSTest, TUnit, and others where available.

It sits in Agent Workflows. It works with .NET. The repository describes itself as: Storage library provides a universal interface for accessing and manipulating data in different cloud blob storage providers. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A repo needs richer architecture assertions than lightweight fluent rule libraries usually provide

Example prompts

  • “/mcaf-dotnet-archunitnet”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires a .NET test project; supports dedicated integrations for xUnit, xUnit v3, MSTest, TUnit, and others where available.

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5d32121. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • dotnet
    • rg

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Requires a .NET test project; supports dedicated integrations for xUnit, xUnit v3, MSTest, TUnit, and others where available.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Mcaf Dotnet Archunitnet loads about 982 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 465 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~982
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

MCAF: .NET ArchUnitNET

Trigger On

  • the repo uses or wants ArchUnitNET
  • architecture testing needs richer modeling than simple dependency checks

Value

  • produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
  • reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
  • leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer

Do Not Use For

  • the lightest possible architecture rule checks

Inputs

  • the nearest AGENTS.md
  • target assemblies
  • architecture boundaries and naming conventions

Quick Start

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

Workflow

  1. Load the architecture once per test assembly where possible.
  2. Encode a small number of durable, high-value architecture rules first.
  3. Use the test-framework-specific integration package that matches the repo.

Bootstrap When Missing

If ArchUnitNET is not configured yet:

  1. Detect existing setup:
    • rg -n "TngTech\\.ArchUnitNET" -g '*.csproj' .
  2. Add packages to the architecture test project:
    • dotnet add TEST_PROJECT.csproj package TngTech.ArchUnitNET
    • add one framework bridge package: TngTech.ArchUnitNET.xUnit, TngTech.ArchUnitNET.xUnitV3, TngTech.ArchUnitNET.MSTestV2, or TngTech.ArchUnitNET.TUnit
  3. Add at least one durable boundary rule test.
  4. Wire architecture tests into the standard test command in AGENTS.md and CI.
  5. Run dotnet test TEST_PROJECT.csproj and return status: configured or status: improved.
  6. If NetArchTest already covers the same boundary policy and no gap exists, return status: not_applicable.

Deliver

  • architecture tests with richer domain and type modeling
  • architecture-rule commands wired into repo test flow and CI expectations

Validate

  • architecture load cost is reasonable for the suite
  • rules are stable and tied to real boundaries

Ralph Loop

Use the Ralph Loop for every task, including docs, architecture, testing, and tooling work.

  1. Plan first (mandatory):
    • analyze current state
    • define target outcome, constraints, and risks
    • write a detailed execution plan
    • list final validation skills to run at the end, with order and reason
  2. Execute one planned step and produce a concrete delta.
  3. Review the result and capture findings with actionable next fixes.
  4. Apply fixes in small batches and rerun the relevant checks or review steps.
  5. Update the plan after each iteration.
  6. Repeat until outcomes are acceptable or only explicit exceptions remain.
  7. If a dependency is missing, bootstrap it or return status: not_applicable with explicit reason and fallback path.
Required Result Format
  • status: complete | clean | improved | configured | not_applicable | blocked
  • plan: concise plan and current iteration step
  • actions_taken: concrete changes made
  • validation_skills: final skills run, or skipped with reasons
  • verification: commands, checks, or review evidence summary
  • remaining: top unresolved items or none

For setup-only requests with no execution, return status: configured and exact next commands.

Load References

  • read references/archunitnet.md first

Example Requests

  • "Use ArchUnitNET for layered architecture tests."
  • "Set up ArchUnitNET with xUnit or MSTest."
