SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This guidance helps reviewers ensure code, tests, docs, and runtime prerequisites stay in sync when retargeting a .NET framework across TargetFrameworks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Establishes a repeatable process for validating cross-project TFMs, desktop-specific constraints, and deployment prerequisites during a retarget.
  • Provides a checklist that mitigates reviewer drift and ensures that downstream artifacts reflect the new runtime and packaging requirements.
  • Use Case: When upgrading a desktop WPF app from net8 to net9, apply these checks to verify all related projects and docs align with the new target.

Quick Start

Run a full retarget review on the solution, ensuring all TFMs, docs, and runtime prerequisites reflect the new target.

Frequently Asked Questions about framework-retarget-review-gate

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I ensure my .NET retargeting keeps WPF constraints and runtime prerequisites aligned?▼

Validate .NET retargeting by applying a review checklist that enforces alignment of all project and test TFMs, WPF constraints, runtimeconfig, installers, and regression baselines to prevent reviewer drift.

What is the best way to review a .NET framework retarget across multiple projects?▼

The best way to review a .NET framework retarget is using a repeatable process that checks cross-project TFM alignment, validates deployment prerequisites, and re-runs regression baselines to ensure downstream artifacts reflect the new target.

Does retargeting a .NET desktop app require updating path literals and installers?▼

Yes, retargeting a .NET desktop app requires updating path literals, installers, and runtimeconfig to ensure Windows-specific packaging and runtime prerequisites remain consistent with the newly targeted framework.

How do I prevent reviewer drift when retargeting TFMs in a .NET solution?▼

Prevent reviewer drift during TFM retargeting by enforcing a checklist that validates code, tests, docs, and runtime prerequisites, ensuring all related projects and downstream artifacts reflect the new target framework.

When do I need to re-run regression baselines during a .NET framework retarget?▼

You need to re-run regression baselines during a .NET framework retarget after updating all project and test TFMs to verify that code, tests, docs, and runtime prerequisites remain consistent and prevent silent failures.
