NuGet package management for .NET projects using dotnet CLI with strict workflows for adds, removes, and version updates. This skill ensures consistent and safe management of NuGet packages across .NET projects. It prioritizes using the dotnet CLI to maintain project integrity and enforces a strict verification and restoration workflow for version updates. Use dotnet add [ ] package [--version ] . Example: dotnet add src/MyProject/MyProject.csproj package Newtonsoft.Json Use dotnet remove [ ] package . Example: dotnet remove src/MyProject/MyProject.csproj package Newtonsoft.Json When updating a version, follow these steps: Verify Version Existence : Check if the version exists using the dotnet package search command with exact match and JSON formatting. Using jq : dotnet package search --exact-match --format json | jq -e '.searchResult[].packages[] | select(.version == " ")' Using PowerShell: (dotnet package search --exact-match --format json | ConvertFrom-Json).searchResult.packages | Where-Object { $_.version -eq " " } Determine Version Management : Apply Changes : Modify the identified file with the new version string. Verify Stability : Run dotnet restore on the project or solution.
