Does this skill follow standard Microsoft naming conventions?

While it adheres to core .NET principles, it specifically implements the POCU standard, which prefers omitting the 'Async' suffix in method names and using explicit types instead of 'var' for clarity.

Does it provide protection against deadlocks?

Yes, it enforces patterns that avoid common causes of deadlocks, such as blocking on async code using .Result or .Wait(), and promotes 'async all the way' principles.

How does it handle C# async performance?

The skill includes specialized patterns for using ValueTask to reduce heap allocations in high-frequency async operations and provides guidance on when to use ConfigureAwait(false).

Is it compatible with .NET Core and .NET 5+?

Yes, the patterns provided are pure .NET framework patterns applicable to any modern C# environment, including .NET Core, .NET 5/6/7/8, and Xamarin/MAUI.

Developer Tools

Implements high-performance C# asynchronous programming patterns adhering to the POCU coding standard.

About

This skill equips Claude with the expertise to write robust, non-blocking C# code using modern async/await patterns. It strictly follows the POCU standard, which emphasizes explicit typing over 'var', the omission of the 'Async' suffix in method names, and mPascalCase for private member fields. Beyond syntax, it provides deep guidance on CancellationToken management, task composition, error handling, and performance optimization using ValueTask, ensuring your .NET applications are scalable, maintainable, and free from common pitfalls like deadlocks or 'async void' errors.

Key Features

2 GitHub stars
Robust async exception handling and avoidance of anti-patterns
Optimized Task composition and coordination strategies
Advanced CancellationToken propagation and lifecycle management
Strategic ConfigureAwait and ValueTask usage for library performance
Strict POCU C# async syntax implementation (no Async suffix, explicit types)

Use Cases

Refactoring legacy synchronous C# codebases into modern non-blocking asynchronous architectures
Implementing resilient background processing with comprehensive cancellation and timeout support
Developing high-throughput .NET libraries using memory-efficient ValueTask patterns
