version-bump

Bumping versions across all projects in an MSBuild solution at once is done by calculating a new semantic version and applying it to Version or VersionPrefix properties across the loaded solution atomically after user confirmation.

Semantic versioning calculates the new version based on a specified bump type—patch, minor, or major. It evaluates MSBuild properties to locate version fields per project, previews the changes, and applies the mutations atomically.

Yes, you can preview version property changes before they are applied. The process computes the new version per project and presents a preview of all pending changes, applying the mutations only after you provide explicit confirmation.

Yes, you need Roslyn for property evaluation and MSBuild project graph access. It is used to locate and evaluate Version or VersionPrefix properties across all projects in the loaded solution before mutating them.

The best way to ensure consistent version numbers during a multi-project release is to automate bumping Version or VersionPrefix properties across all projects in a loaded solution atomically, verifying the solution compiles after applying the changes.

After applying version mutations atomically, the skill verifies that the solution compiles. This ensures that any issues introduced during the version bump process are immediately caught after the changes are applied.
