What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that all MSBuild-based commands automatically generate detailed binary logs, preventing data loss and simplifying failure analysis.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory Binlog Generation: Automatically appends /bl:N.binlog to dotnet build, dotnet test, dotnet pack, msbuild, and other MSBuild commands.
  • Unique Naming: Uses an incrementing counter for binlog filenames (e.g., 1.binlog, 2.binlog) to prevent overwrites and preserve build history.
  • Use Case: When a build fails unexpectedly, you can immediately analyze the corresponding N.binlog file to pinpoint the exact cause without needing to re-run the build.

Quick Start

Run your dotnet build command with the /bl switch, ensuring the filename is the next available number in sequence.
