Jeremy D. Miller shows how Marten stores a class hierarchy in one PostgreSQL table and queries it with LINQ, without the table-per-type or table-per-concrete-type decisions EF Core requires. He also covers subtype-specific partial indexes and duplicated fields. For teams weighing document storage against EF Core inheritance mapping, it is a useful comparison.
Part 9 of Taiseer Joudeh's MCP series shows how to attach an existing ASP.NET Core MCP server to a hosted Foundry agent without changing its code. The setup covers a Foundry project, an Entra app registration, a custom MCP connection using OAuth identity passthrough, and a toolbox. It matters for .NET teams that want the agent loop in Azure while user-based authorization still works.
iOS apps built with Xcode 27 must adopt the UIKit scene lifecycle, or they can vanish right after the splash screen. Microsoft explains an agent skill that prepares existing .NET MAUI projects, plus the manual steps for the scene delegate, Info.plist manifest and minimum OS versions. It also covers moving AppDelegate callbacks to scene events.
The GitHub Copilot SDK lets you keep GitHub's agent runtime while routing model inference to your own Microsoft Foundry or Azure OpenAI deployment through BYOK. The article walks through a .NET 10 console sample that configures ProviderConfig, authenticates with Microsoft Entra ID or an API key, and sends one prompt.
Nick Cosentino explains how to set up C# code intelligence in Claude Code through the csharp-lsp plugin and where that setup stops being reliable. The article separates the language server, the plugin and the workspace as three layers to verify, and it clarifies what diagnostics and symbol navigation can and cannot prove. It is a practical checklist for .NET developers using Claude Code on C# repositories.
A practical guide to adding a Model Context Protocol server to an existing ASP.NET Core app using the official ModelContextProtocol C# SDK. It covers wrapping existing services as read-only tools, locking the endpoint down with JWT authentication and per-tool authorization, and verifying the surface with an MCP client. Useful for teams that want AI agents to use their current APIs without a rewrite.
Microsoft Graph supplies calendar, mail and document data that can be indexed with Azure AI Search and passed to a language model to produce sourced answers. The article walks through a .NET retrieval-augmented generation flow with code for loading context, chunking documents and calling the model. It stresses least-privilege scopes and permission-aware retrieval, which matter for any enterprise assistant.
This post shows how to keep the ADFS ID token small and fetch extra claims from the OpenID Connect userinfo endpoint instead of using allatclaims. It covers the urn:microsoft:userinfo claim rules and the ASP.NET Core OpenIdConnect setting that merges those claims. It also flags the audience error that appears when the wrong token is sent.
Wolverine 6.51 adds a warm-up node role for blue/green deployments. New nodes join the cluster only to rebuild new projection versions in Marten or Polecat, without handling messages or subscriptions. Combined with versioned projections and a side-effect gate, teams can catch up read models before switching traffic. This is a practical path to zero-downtime releases for event-sourced systems.
Shiny.Net.Http is a library that keeps file uploads and downloads running in the background on iOS, Android and other platforms, even when the app is suspended or killed. Its queue survives restarts and supports retries, pause and resume. It is a practical alternative to hand-written retry loops for mobile teams.
