What problem does it solve?

MSBuild Server for CLI caching addresses slow CLI builds by turning on a long-lived MSBuild process that caches evaluation results, resolved references, and other state across builds, reducing startup time and incremental build overhead.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Long-lived MSBuild server that persists across invocations.
  • Caches evaluation results and dependencies to speed up subsequent builds.
  • Reduces build times for large repos with many projects, and benefits CI pipelines with repeated builds.
  • Not activate for IDE-based builds, since IDEs typically manage their own long-lived processes.

Quick Start

Enable the server by setting MSBUILDUSESERVER=1 in your environment and run a few dotnet build commands to observe caching benefits.
