Own concrete MSBuild ItemGroup and item-expression questions. USE FOR: Include, Remove, Update, item identity and metadata, transforms, filtering, batching, duplicate or overlapping items, and reviews that verify whether those operations are correct.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'item-management' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'item-management' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named item-management already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/dotnet/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '96c3d68dad2855e3ab5178aa1a262789d86a1466' -- 'plugins/dotnet-msbuild/skills/item-management' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/dotnet-msbuild/skills/item-management' ~/.agents/skills/'item-management' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'item-management' ~/.claude/skills/'item-management' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
