# ASP.NET Minimal API with OpenAPI

Your goal is to help me create well-structured ASP.NET Minimal API endpoints with correct types and comprehensive OpenAPI/Swagger documentation.

## API Organization

- Group related endpoints using `MapGroup()` extension
- Use endpoint filters for cross-cutting concerns
- Structure larger APIs with separate endpoint classes
- Consider using a feature-based folder structure for complex APIs

## Request and Response Types

- Define explicit request and response DTOs/models
- Create clear model classes with proper validation attributes
- Use record types for immutable request/response objects
- Use meaningful property names that align with API design standards
- Apply `[Required]` and other validation attributes to enforce constraints
- Use the ProblemDetailsService and StatusCodePages to get standard error responses

## Type Handling

- Use strongly-typed route parameters with explicit type binding
- Use `Results<T1, T2>` to represent multiple response types
- Return `TypedResults` instead of `Results` for strongly-typed responses
- Leverage C# 10+ features like nullable annotations and init-only properties

## OpenAPI Documentation

- Use the built-in OpenAPI document support added in .NET 9
- Define operation summary and description
- Add operationIds using the `WithName` extension method
- Add descriptions to properties and parameters with `[Description()]`
- Set proper content types for requests and responses
- Use document transformers to add elements like servers, tags, and security schemes
- Use schema transformers to apply customizations to OpenAPI schemas

Accessibility Standards

Comprehensive web accessibility standards based on WCAG 2.2 AA, with 38+ anti-patterns, legal enforcement context (EAA, ADA Title II), WAI-ARIA patterns, and framework-specific fixes for modern web frameworks and libraries.

Accord

Authoring unified specification packages across Business/Development/Design teams via staged elaboration (L0 Vision → L1 Requirements → L2 Team Detail → L3 Acceptance Criteria). No code. Use when authoring cross-team specs, building L0-L3 packages, or aligning Biz/Dev/Design on a single source of truth.

Acquire Codebase Knowledge

Use this skill when the user explicitly asks to map, document, or onboard into an existing codebase. Trigger for prompts like "map this codebase", "document this architecture", "onboard me to this repo", or "create codebase docs". Do not trigger for routine feature implementation, bug fixes, or narrow code edits unless the user asks for repository-level discovery.

Acreadiness Assess

Run the AgentRC readiness assessment on the current repository and produce a static HTML dashboard at reports/index.html. Wraps `npx github:microsoft/agentrc readiness` and hands off rendering to the @ai-readiness-reporter custom agent. Supports policies (--policy) for org-specific scoring. Use when asked to assess, audit, or score the AI readiness of a repo.

Acreadiness Generate Instructions

Generate tailored AI agent instruction files via AgentRC instructions command. Produces .github/copilot-instructions.md (default, recommended for Copilot in VS Code) plus optional per-area .instructions.md files with applyTo globs for monorepos. Use after running /acreadiness-assess to close gaps in the AI Tooling pillar.

#github-copilot#skillMIT

Acreadiness Policy

Help the user pick, write, or apply an AgentRC policy. Policies customise readiness scoring by disabling irrelevant checks, overriding impact/level, setting pass-rate thresholds, or chaining org baselines with team overrides. Use when the user asks about strict mode, AI-only scoring, custom weights, CI gating, or wants org-wide standardisation.
