What this skill does

# Microsoft .NET Microservices Architecture Guide (v7.0)

This skill provides access to the complete official Microsoft guide: ".NET Microservices Architecture for Containerized .NET Applications" (Edition v7.0 - Updated to ASP.NET Core 7.0).

## When to Use This Skill

Invoke this skill when you need:
- **Detailed technical information** from the official Microsoft guide
- **Specific implementation patterns** or code examples
- **In-depth explanations** beyond your summarized knowledge
- **Official Microsoft recommendations** for microservices architecture
- **Reference to eShopOnContainers** implementation details
- **Comprehensive coverage** of specific topics (DDD, CQRS, Docker, Kubernetes, etc.)

## What This Skill Contains

The complete 350-page Microsoft guide (text content only) including:
- Container fundamentals and Docker concepts
- Choosing between .NET and .NET Framework
- Microservices architecture principles
- API Gateway patterns
- Event-driven architecture
- Domain-Driven Design (DDD) tactical and strategic patterns
- CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation)
- Data management in microservices
- Resilience patterns (Circuit Breaker, Retry, Bulkhead)
- Security best practices
- Kubernetes and orchestration
- eShopOnContainers reference application details
- Complete code examples and implementation guidance
- All architectural concepts explained in text (diagrams removed for size optimization)

## How to Use

When a user asks about:
1. Specific technical details you need to verify
2. Code implementation examples
3. eShopOnContainers architecture details
4. Official Microsoft recommendations
5. Complex patterns requiring detailed explanations

Invoke this skill and follow the procedure below.

## Core Procedure

1. Restate the architecture decision or implementation question in concrete terms: boundary, service, data ownership, deployment target, and failure mode.
2. Search the guide for the relevant pattern rather than relying on memory alone.
3. Separate Microsoft guide recommendations from project-specific constraints or newer platform guidance.
4. Prefer decision matrices over one-size-fits-all answers for sync vs async calls, gateway placement, data ownership, and deployment topology.
5. When giving code or YAML, label it as a focused pattern excerpt and ask the implementation agent to adapt it to the user's runtime/version.
6. Call out trade-offs: autonomy vs consistency, latency vs resilience, operational simplicity vs scalability.

## Quick Pattern Map

| User intent | Guide area to inspect |
|---|---|
| Define service boundaries | DDD, bounded contexts, data ownership |
| Choose HTTP vs messaging | Communication in microservices, integration events |
| Add API gateway | API Gateway patterns, Ocelot/YARP considerations |
| Improve resilience | Retry, circuit breaker, timeout, health checks, Polly |
| Split databases | Data sovereignty, eventual consistency, CQRS |
| Deploy containers | Docker, Kubernetes, orchestrators, environment configuration |

cupynumeric-migration-readiness

Included

Pre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.

alibabacloud-data-agent-skill

Included

Invoke Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI to perform natural language-driven data analysis on enterprise databases. Data Agent for Analytics is an intelligent data analysis agent developed by Alibaba Cloud Database team for enterprise users. It automatically completes requirement analysis, data understanding, analysis insights, and report generation based on natural language descriptions. This tool supports: discovering data resources (instances/databases/tables) managed in DMS, initiating query or deep analysis sessions, real-time progress tracking, and retrieving analysis conclusions and generated reports. Use this Skill when users need to query databases, analyze data trends, generate data reports, ask questions in natural language, or mention "Data Agent", "data analysis", "database query", "SQL analysis", "data insights".

token-optimizer

Included

Reduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
