What it does
Dotnet API is an agent skill from novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan. Builds ASP.NET Core APIs, EF Core data access, gRPC, SignalR, and backend services with middleware, security (OAuth, JWT, OWASP), resilience, messaging, OpenAPI, .NET Aspire, Semantic Kernel, HybridCache, YARP reverse proxy, output caching, Office documents (Excel, Word, PowerPoint), PDF, and architecture patterns. Spans 32 topic areas. Do not use for UI rendering patterns or CI/CD pipeline authoring.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 35 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/agent-gotchas.md` and `references/api-docs.md`).
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering gRPC and Protobuf, Software architecture and OpenAPI specifications. It works with .NET, ASP.NET Core, gRPC and OpenAPI. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive .NET development skills for modern C and .NET. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- UI rendering patterns
- CI/CD pipeline authoring
Example prompts
- “Use the dotnet-api skill to build ASP.NET Core APIs, EF Core data access, gRPC, SignalR, and backend services with middleware, security (OAuth, JWT…”
- “/dotnet-api”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3db3ae6. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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.
Context cost
Dotnet API loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~127k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 589 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Overview
ASP.NET Core APIs, data access, backend services, security, and cloud-native patterns. This consolidated skill spans 32 topic areas. Load the appropriate companion file from references/ based on the routing table below.
Baseline dependency: references/minimal-apis.md defines the core ASP.NET Core Minimal API patterns (route groups, endpoint filters, TypedResults, parameter binding) that apply to most API development tasks. Load it by default when building HTTP endpoints.
Most-shared companion: references/architecture-patterns.md covers vertical slices, request pipelines, error handling, caching, and idempotency patterns used across nearly all ASP.NET Core projects.

Dotnet API is an agent skill from novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan.NET Aspire, Semantic Kernel, HybridCache, YARP reverse proxy, output caching, Office documents (Excel, Word, PowerPoint), PDF, and architecture patterns.
When should I use Dotnet API?
Dotnet API fits situations like: UI rendering patterns; CI/CD pipeline authoring.
How do I install Dotnet API in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan --skill dotnet-api -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/dotnet-artisan/skills/dotnet-api in novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan) into .claude/skills/dotnet-api in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Dotnet API in Codex?
Run `npx skills add novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan --skill dotnet-api -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/dotnet-artisan/skills/dotnet-api in novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan) into .agents/skills/dotnet-api in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Dotnet API in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan --skill dotnet-api -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/dotnet-api, .gemini/skills/dotnet-api, .github/skills/dotnet-api and .opencode/skills/dotnet-api in your project.
What does Dotnet API need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Dotnet API is instructions for the agent only.
Does Dotnet API access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Dotnet API safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Dotnet API use?
Dotnet API is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Dotnet API use?
About 1.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 125k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
What are the alternatives to Dotnet API?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Dotnet API: Dotnet Webapi (dotnet/skills, 5.6k stars), Hunt API (Encod3d-Sec/TORCH, 329 stars), Use Yaak (mountain-loop/yaak, 19k stars) and Aspnet Core (fanslead/ReverseProxy.Store, 163 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
Who maintains Dotnet API?
novotnyllc (a GitHub organization) maintains it in novotnyllc/dotnet-artisan, which has 233 GitHub stars. The repository holds 9 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on August 18, 2026.
