Implements robust API versioning strategies for ASP.NET Core applications using industry best practices and the Asp.Versioning library.

This skill provides Claude with the specialized knowledge required to implement and manage professional API versioning within ASP.NET Core environments. It guides developers through setting up the Asp.Versioning library, choosing between URL segment or header-based strategies, and managing the lifecycle of an API from initial release to version deprecation. By following these standardized patterns, developers can ensure backward compatibility, maintain clean OpenAPI documentation, and evolve their services without breaking existing client integrations.
