Skill instructions
System.Data.SqlClient to Microsoft.Data.SqlClient Migration Overview Migrate .NET projects from System.Data.SqlClient to Microsoft.Data.SqlClient, covering package references, code files, connection string validation, and configuration changes. The migration includes documenting behavioral differences that require runtime verification. Scope Determination - Single project specified → migrate that project only - Solution specified → migrate all projects referencing System.Data.SqlClient - Scope unclear → ask the user NuGet package names and assembly names are case-insensitive. Account for this when searching for or removing dependencies to avoid missed references. Workflow Complete all steps without pausing between them. Each step builds on the previous one, and partial migration leaves the codebase in a broken state. Migration Progress: - [ ] Step 1: Update package dependencies - [ ] Step 2: Update code files - [ ] Step 3: Validate migration (repeat Steps 2-3 until clean) - [ ] Step 4:
