SDK Style Conversion Overview Guide the step-by-step conversion of legacy (non SDK-style) project files to SDK-style while preserving existing target frameworks, behavior, and build output. This is a structural-only conversion — no target framework changes or functional refactors. Hard Constraints - Do not change, add, remove, or upgrade TargetFramework/TargetFrameworks values — this conversion is format-only, not an upgrade - Do not introduce new package versions unrelated to conversion — package drift causes subtle runtime issues - Only convert the project format using the provided tools and fix build issues directly caused by the conversion Available Tools - Project ordering tool: Use a tool capability to obtain the topological (dependency) order. Do not hand-compute and stop if unsuccessful - SDK style conversion tool: Use the dedicated conversion tool for each project. Do not manually rewrite XML and stop if unsuccessful Workflow Execution Use appropriate tools (not direct file re
