Build or maintain controller-based ASP.NET Core APIs when the project needs controller conventions, advanced model binding, validation extensions, OData, JsonPatch, or existing API patterns.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# ASP.NET Core Web API

## Trigger On

- working on controller-based APIs in ASP.NET Core
- needing controller-specific extensibility or conventions
- migrating or reviewing existing API controllers and filters

## Workflow

1. Use controllers when the API needs controller-centric features, not simply because older templates did so.
2. Keep controllers thin: map HTTP concerns to application services or handlers, and avoid embedding data access and business rules directly in actions.
3. Use clear DTO boundaries, explicit validation, and predictable HTTP status behavior.
4. Review authentication and authorization at both controller and endpoint levels so the API surface is not accidentally inconsistent.
5. Keep OpenAPI generation, versioning, and error contract behavior deliberate rather than incidental.
6. Use `dotnet-minimal-apis` for new simple APIs instead of defaulting to controllers out of habit.

## Deliver

- controller APIs with explicit contracts and policies
- reduced controller bloat
- tests or smoke checks for critical API behavior

## Validate

- controller features are actually justified
- actions do not hide business logic and persistence details

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add postpartum-genushyacinthus29/dotnet-skills/dotnet-web-api@sha256:987566273470c7fa

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
