What problem does it solve?
Open Folder mode in Visual Studio lacks many extension features that depend on a project context. This skill adds file context providers, file context actions, and file scanners to enable build, debug, and navigation workflows for non-MSBuild files, and stores per-folder settings via .vs/VSWorkspaceSettings.json.
Core Features & Use Cases
- File context providers that supply build/debug contexts for non-project files.
- File context actions to add custom right-click actions on files without a project system.
- File scanners to index symbols for Go To navigation in Open Folder environments.
- Per-folder workspace settings that persist across sessions and folders.
Quick Start
Start Visual Studio, open a folder, and let the Open Folder skill initialize to enable file context providers, actions, scanners, and per-folder settings.
