+
+# dotnet-inspect
+
+Query .NET library APIs — the same commands work across NuGet packages, platform libraries (System.*, Microsoft.AspNetCore.*), and local .dll/.nupkg files.
+
+## Quick Decision Tree
+
+- **Code broken?** → `diff --package Foo@old..new` first, then `member`
+- **What's new in a .NET preview?** → `diff --platform System.Runtime@P2..P3 --additive` per framework library
+- **What types exist?** → `type --package Foo` (discover types in a package or library)
+- **What members does a type have?** → `member Type --package Foo` (compact table by default)
+- **What does a type look like?** → `type Type --package Foo` (tree view for single type)
+- **What are the method signatures?** → `member Type --package Foo -m Method` (full signatures + docs)
+- **What is the source/IL?** → `member Type --package Foo -m Method:1 -v:d` (Source, Lowered C#, IL)
+- **Where is the source code?** → `source Type --package Foo` (SourceLink URLs), `source Type -m Member` (with line numbers)
+- **Want raw source content?** → `source Type --package Foo --cat` (fetches and prints source files)
+- **What constructors exist?** → `member 'Type<T>' --package Foo -m .ctor` (use `<T>` not `<>`)
+- **How many overloads?** → `member Type --package Foo --show-index` (shows `Name:N` indices)
+- **What does this package depend on?** → `depends --package Foo`
+- **What does this type inherit?** → `depends 'INumber<TSelf>'`
+- **Want a dependency diagram?** → `depends --mermaid` (standalone) or `depends --markdown --mermaid` (embedded)
+- **What metadata fields exist?** → `-S Section --fields "PDB*"` (structured query, no DSL)
+- **What version is available?** → `Foo --version` (cache-first), `Foo --latest-version` (always NuGet), `Foo --versions` (list all)
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+- **"What types are in this package?"** — `type` discovers types, `find` searches by pattern
+- **"What members does this type have?"** — `member` for methods/properties/events (docs on by default)
+- **"What changed between versions?"** — `diff` classifies breaking/additive changes
+- **"What new APIs shipped in this preview?"** — `diff --platform System.Runtime@prev..current --additive` per framework library
+- **"This code uses an old API — fix it"** — `diff` the old..new version, then `member` to see the new API
+- **"What extends this type?"** — `extensions` finds extension methods/properties (`--reachable` for transitive)
+- **"What implements this interface?"** — `implements` finds concrete types
+- **"What does this type depend on?"** — `depends` walks type hierarchy, package deps, or library refs
+- **"Show dependencies as a diagram"** — `depends --mermaid` for standalone mermaid, `--markdown --mermaid` for embedded
+- **"Where is the source code?"** — `source` returns SourceLink URLs; add member name for line numbers
+- **"What version/metadata does this have?"** — `package` and `library` inspect metadata
+- **"What version is available?"** — `Foo --version` (fast, cache-first — like `docker run`)
+- **"What's the latest on NuGet?"** — `Foo --latest-version` (always queries NuGet — like `docker pull`)
+- **"What versions exist?"** — `Foo --versions` (list all published versions)
+- **"What TFMs are available?"** — `package Foo --tfms`, then `type --package Foo --tfm net8.0`
+- **"Where is the source code?"** — `source` returns SourceLink URLs; add member name for line numbers
+- **"Show me the actual source?"** — `source Type --package Foo --cat` fetches and prints source file contents
+- **"Show me something cool"** — `demo` runs curated showcase queries
+
+## Key Patterns
+
+Default output is **markdown** — headings, tables, and field lists that render well in terminals, editors, and LLM contexts. No flags needed:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- member JsonSerializer --package System.Text.Json    # scan members
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type --package System.Text.Json                     # scan types
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --package System.CommandLine@2.0.0-beta4.22272.1..2.0.3  # triage changes
+```
+
+Default format is **markdown** — no flags needed. Optional formats: **oneline** (`--oneline`), **plaintext** (`--plaintext`), **json** (`--json`), **mermaid** (`--mermaid`). Verbosity (`-v:q/m/n/d`) controls which sections are included; formatter controls how they render. They compose freely — except `--oneline` and `-v` cannot be combined.
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- member JsonSerializer --package System.Text.Json -v:d  # detailed (source/IL)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -v:n --plaintext                      # all local sections, plaintext
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type --package System.Text.Json --oneline              # compact columnar output
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --mermaid                               # standalone mermaid diagram
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --markdown --mermaid                    # mermaid embedded in markdown
+```
+
+Use `diff` first when fixing broken code — triage changes, then drill into specifics:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --package System.CommandLine@2.0.0-beta4.22272.1..2.0.3  # what changed?
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- member Command --package System.CommandLine@2.0.3               # new API surface
+```
+
+## Platform Diffs & Release Notes
+
+For framework libraries (System.*, Microsoft.AspNetCore.*), use `--platform` instead of `--package`. This is the primary workflow for .NET release notes — diff each framework library between preview versions:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Runtime@P2..P3 --additive        # what's new?
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Net.Http@P2..P3 --additive       # per-library
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Text.Json@9.0.0..10.0.0          # across major versions
+```
+
+**Multi-library packages:** `diff --package` works across all libraries in a package (e.g., `Microsoft.Azure.SignalR` with multiple DLLs). For framework ref packages like `Microsoft.NETCore.App.Ref`, prefer `--platform` per-library since it resolves from installed packs.
+
+**Nightly/preview packages from custom feeds:** The `--source` flag works for version listing but not package downloads. Pre-populate the NuGet cache instead:
+
+```bash
+# Pre-populate cache (fails with NU1213 but downloads the package)
+dotnet add package Microsoft.NETCore.App.Ref --version <version> --source <feed-url>
+# Then use normally — resolves from NuGet cache
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Runtime@P2..P3 --additive
+```
+
+## Version Resolution (Docker-style)
+
+Version queries use Docker-like semantics: cached packages are served in under 15ms, network calls cost 1–4 seconds. Three flags, three behaviors:
+
+| Flag | Behavior | Network | Like Docker... |
+| ---- | -------- | ------- | -------------- |
+| `--version` (bare) | **Local** — returns the version from local cache | Only on cache miss | `docker run nginx` |
+| `--latest-version` | **Remote** — queries nuget.org for the absolute latest | Always | `docker pull nginx` |
+| `--versions` | **Remote** — returns every published version | Always | `docker image ls --all` |
+
+`--version` and bare-name inspection share the same cache. If `Foo --version` returns `2.0.3`, then `Foo` (or `package Foo`) will inspect that same `2.0.3` — no surprises, no extra network call. This is the fast path for most tasks.
+
+`--latest-version` and `--versions` always query nuget.org, so they reflect the latest published state. Use `--latest-version` when you need to confirm the newest version, e.g., before a dependency upgrade.
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --version           # what's in the cache? (fast, local)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --latest-version     # what's on nuget.org? (always network)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions           # list all published versions
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions 5         # list latest 5 versions
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions --preview # include prerelease versions
+```
+
+The same flags work on the `package` subcommand:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --version           # same local cache check
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --latest-version     # always queries nuget.org
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --versions           # list all versions
+```
+
+Version pinning with `@version` syntax:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo@2.0.3                # pinned — no network if cached
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo@latest               # always checks nuget.org
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo                      # prefer cache, refresh on TTL expiry
+```
+
+**Use `--version` (not `--latest-version`) as the default.** It's fast and returns the same version that bare-name commands will use. Only reach for `--latest-version` when you need the absolute latest from nuget.org.
+
+## Structured Queries (like Go templates, without a DSL)
+
+Discover the schema, then select and project — no template language needed:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -D                          # list sections
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -D --effective              # sections with data (dry run)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- library System.Text.Json -D --tree           # full schema tree
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -S Symbols                  # render one section
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -S Symbols --fields "PDB*"  # project specific fields
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json --columns Kind,Type    # project specific columns
+```
+
+## Mermaid Diagrams
+
+The `depends` command supports `--mermaid` for Mermaid diagram output. Two modes:
+
+| Flags | Output | Use case |
+| ----- | ------ | -------- |
+| `--mermaid` | Standalone mermaid (`graph TD`) | Pipe to `mmdc`, embed in tooling |
+| `--markdown --mermaid` | Mermaid fenced blocks inside markdown | Render in GitHub, VS Code, docs |
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --mermaid                               # type hierarchy as mermaid
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --markdown --mermaid                    # embedded in markdown
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends --library System.Text.Json --mermaid           # assembly reference graph
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends --package Markout --mermaid                    # package dependency graph
+```
+
+## Search Scope
+
+Search commands (`find`, `extensions`, `implements`, `depends`) use scope flags:
+
+- **(no flags)** — all platform frameworks (runtime, aspnetcore, netstandard)
+- **`--platform`** — all platform frameworks
+- **`--extensions`** — curated Microsoft.Extensions.* packages
+- **`--aspnetcore`** — curated Microsoft.AspNetCore.* packages
+- **`--package Foo`** — specific NuGet package (combinable with scope flags)
+
+`type`, `member`, `library`, `diff` accept `--platform <name>` as a string for a specific platform library.
+
+## Command Reference
+
+| Command | Purpose |
+| ------- | ------- |
+| `type` | **Discover types** — terse output, no docs, use `--shape` for hierarchy |
+| `member` | **Inspect members** — docs on by default, supports dotted syntax (`-m Type.Member`) |
+| `find` | Search for types by glob or fuzzy match across any scope |
+| `diff` | Compare API surfaces between versions — breaking/additive classification |
+| `extensions` | Find extension methods/properties for a type (`--reachable` for transitive) |
+| `implements` | Find types implementing an interface or extending a base class |
+| `depends` | Walk dependency graphs upward — type hierarchy, package deps, or library refs |
+| `package` | Package metadata, files, versions, dependencies, `search` for NuGet discovery |
+| `library` | Library metadata, symbols, references, SourceLink audit |
+| `source` | **SourceLink URLs** — type-level or member-level (with line numbers), `--cat` to fetch content, `--verify` to check URLs |
+| `demo` | Run curated showcase queries — list, invoke, or feeling-lucky |
+
+## Filtering and Limiting
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -k enum               # filter by kind (type and member commands)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -t "*Converter*"      # glob filter on type names
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- member System.Text.Json JsonDocument -m Parse  # filter by member name
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -5                    # first 5 lines (like head -5)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json --tail 10             # last 10 lines (like tail -10)
+```
+
+**Do not pipe output through `head`, `tail`, or `Select-Object`.** Use built-in `--head` / `--tail`:
+
+- **`-n N`, `--head N`, or `-N`** — first N lines (like `head`). Keeps headers, truncates cleanly.
+- **`--tail N`** — last N lines (like `tail`). Buffers output, emits only the final N lines.
+- **`-m N`** (numeric) — item limit (members per kind section).
+- **`-k Kind`** — filter by kind: `class/struct/interface/enum/delegate` (type) or `method/property/field/event/constructor` (type single-type view, member).
+- **`-S Section`** — show only a specific section (glob-capable).
+
+## Key Syntax
+
+- **Generic types** need quotes: `'Option<T>'`, `'IEnumerable<T>'`
+- **Use `<T>` not `<>`** for generic types — `"Option<>"` resolves to the abstract base, `'Option<T>'` resolves to the concrete generic with constructors
+- **`type` uses `-t`** for type filtering, **`member` uses `-m`** for member filtering (not `--filter`)
+- **Dotted syntax** for `member`: `-m JsonSerializer.Deserialize` or `-m System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Deserialize`
+- **Diff ranges** use `..`: `--package System.Text.Json@9.0.0..10.0.0`
+- **Derived types** only show their own members — query the base type too
+
+## Installation
+
+Use `dnx` (like `npx`). Always use `-y` and `--` to prevent interactive prompts:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- <command>
+```

+## Platform Diffs & Release Notes
+
+For framework libraries (System.*, Microsoft.AspNetCore.*), use `--platform` instead of `--package`. This is the primary workflow for .NET release notes — diff each framework library between preview versions:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Runtime@P2..P3 --additive        # what's new?
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Net.Http@P2..P3 --additive       # per-library
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- diff --platform System.Text.Json@9.0.0..10.0.0          # across major versions
+```
+
+**Multi-library packages:** `diff --package` works across all libraries in a package (e.g., `Microsoft.Azure.SignalR` with multiple DLLs). For framework ref packages like `Microsoft.NETCore.App.Ref`, prefer `--platform` per-library since it resolves from installed packs.

+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions           # list all published versions
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions 5         # list latest 5 versions
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo --versions --preview # include prerelease versions
+```
+
+The same flags work on the `package` subcommand:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --version           # same local cache check
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --latest-version     # always queries nuget.org
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- package Foo --versions           # list all versions
+```
+
+Version pinning with `@version` syntax:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo@2.0.3                # pinned — no network if cached
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo@latest               # always checks nuget.org
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- Foo                      # prefer cache, refresh on TTL expiry
+```
+
+**Use `--version` (not `--latest-version`) as the default.** It's fast and returns the same version that bare-name commands will use. Only reach for `--latest-version` when you need the absolute latest from nuget.org.
+
+## Structured Queries (like Go templates, without a DSL)
+
+Discover the schema, then select and project — no template language needed:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -D                          # list sections
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -D --effective              # sections with data (dry run)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- library System.Text.Json -D --tree           # full schema tree
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -S Symbols                  # render one section
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- System.Text.Json -S Symbols --fields "PDB*"  # project specific fields
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json --columns Kind,Type    # project specific columns
+```
+
+## Mermaid Diagrams
+
+The `depends` command supports `--mermaid` for Mermaid diagram output. Two modes:
+
+| Flags | Output | Use case |
+| ----- | ------ | -------- |
+| `--mermaid` | Standalone mermaid (`graph TD`) | Pipe to `mmdc`, embed in tooling |
+| `--markdown --mermaid` | Mermaid fenced blocks inside markdown | Render in GitHub, VS Code, docs |
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --mermaid                               # type hierarchy as mermaid
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends Stream --markdown --mermaid                    # embedded in markdown
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends --library System.Text.Json --mermaid           # assembly reference graph
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- depends --package Markout --mermaid                    # package dependency graph
+```
+
+## Search Scope
+
+Search commands (`find`, `extensions`, `implements`, `depends`) use scope flags:
+
+- **(no flags)** — all platform frameworks (runtime, aspnetcore, netstandard)
+- **`--platform`** — all platform frameworks
+- **`--extensions`** — curated Microsoft.Extensions.* packages
+- **`--aspnetcore`** — curated Microsoft.AspNetCore.* packages
+- **`--package Foo`** — specific NuGet package (combinable with scope flags)
+
+`type`, `member`, `library`, `diff` accept `--platform <name>` as a string for a specific platform library.
+
+## Command Reference
+
+| Command | Purpose |
+| ------- | ------- |
+| `type` | **Discover types** — terse output, no docs, use `--shape` for hierarchy |
+| `member` | **Inspect members** — docs on by default, supports dotted syntax (`-m Type.Member`) |
+| `find` | Search for types by glob or fuzzy match across any scope |
+| `diff` | Compare API surfaces between versions — breaking/additive classification |
+| `extensions` | Find extension methods/properties for a type (`--reachable` for transitive) |
+| `implements` | Find types implementing an interface or extending a base class |
+| `depends` | Walk dependency graphs upward — type hierarchy, package deps, or library refs |
+| `package` | Package metadata, files, versions, dependencies, `search` for NuGet discovery |
+| `library` | Library metadata, symbols, references, SourceLink audit |
+| `source` | **SourceLink URLs** — type-level or member-level (with line numbers), `--cat` to fetch content, `--verify` to check URLs |
+| `demo` | Run curated showcase queries — list, invoke, or feeling-lucky |
+
+## Filtering and Limiting
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -k enum               # filter by kind (type and member commands)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -t "*Converter*"      # glob filter on type names
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- member System.Text.Json JsonDocument -m Parse  # filter by member name
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json -5                    # first 5 lines (like head -5)
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- type System.Text.Json --tail 10             # last 10 lines (like tail -10)
+```
+
+**Do not pipe output through `head`, `tail`, or `Select-Object`.** Use built-in `--head` / `--tail`:
+
+- **`-n N`, `--head N`, or `-N`** — first N lines (like `head`). Keeps headers, truncates cleanly.
+- **`--tail N`** — last N lines (like `tail`). Buffers output, emits only the final N lines.
+- **`-m N`** (numeric) — item limit (members per kind section).
+- **`-k Kind`** — filter by kind: `class/struct/interface/enum/delegate` (type) or `method/property/field/event/constructor` (type single-type view, member).
+- **`-S Section`** — show only a specific section (glob-capable).
+
+## Key Syntax
+
+- **Generic types** need quotes: `'Option<T>'`, `'IEnumerable<T>'`
+- **Use `<T>` not `<>`** for generic types — `"Option<>"` resolves to the abstract base, `'Option<T>'` resolves to the concrete generic with constructors
+- **`type` uses `-t`** for type filtering, **`member` uses `-m`** for member filtering (not `--filter`)
+- **Dotted syntax** for `member`: `-m JsonSerializer.Deserialize` or `-m System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Deserialize`
+- **Diff ranges** use `..`: `--package System.Text.Json@9.0.0..10.0.0`
+- **Derived types** only show their own members — query the base type too
+
+## Installation
+
+Use `dnx` (like `npx`). Always use `-y` and `--` to prevent interactive prompts:
+
+```bash
+dnx dotnet-inspect -y -- <command>
+```
