Runs the Build workflow on the head of ai-infrastructure inside the fork, to see whether the build through the .slnx works on the windows-2022 image. This pull request is closed afterwards; the real pull request is in the original repository.

`.github/copilot-instructions.md` is the single source for GitHub Copilot, Claude Code and other agents: the build and test commands, the structure, how the adornments work, the parts that belong to the original author, the rules for Visual Studio extensions and the C# guidelines. `CLAUDE.md` imports it and `AGENTS.md` points to it.

`create-pr-description.prompt.md` compares the branch with `origin/main` and fills in the pull request template. This repository has no template, so the prompt falls back to a default structure.

A custom agent for the extension code, based on `madskristensen/CustomAgents`. It refers to the project instructions and to the skills instead of repeating them.

Six skills of `madskristensen/vs-agent-plugins` (commit e971073e2163d4bc66d3e455e102c316e01c94c6) that apply to this extension: `handling-async-threading`, `handling-extension-errors`, `adding-editor-adornments`, `listening-text-view-events`, `adding-options-settings` and `handling-solution-events`. The content is unchanged. The Apache License 2.0 of the upstream repository comes with them, and `README.md` names the source.

Git cannot store a Windows junction, so `Directory.Build.targets` creates it when Visual Studio loads the project, and `.gitignore` excludes it. A command-line build skips the target. `Directory.Build.targets` is a solution item.

`.claude/settings.json` registers the `vs-agent-plugins` marketplace and enables `vs-extensibility-skills`, the whole catalogue of 40 skills. If Claude Code does not offer to install it, `claude plugin install vs-extensibility-skills@vs-agent-plugins --scope project` does.

The job runs on `windows-2022`: the VSIX builds only with the MSBuild of Visual Studio, and the extension targets Visual Studio 2022. The integrated firewall of the agent is not compatible with Windows, so the agent runs without it.

`.mcp.json` lists `GitHub` for Visual Studio and Claude Code, and `Microsoft Learn` for Claude Code only, because Visual Studio bundles that server itself.

The GitHub server does not support the OAuth dynamic client registration that Claude Code needs, so `.claude/scripts/github-mcp-headers.ps1` passes it the token that Git Credential Manager already stores. `.mcp.json` is a solution item.

`dotnet sln migrate` produced `StringResourceVisualizer.slnx` from `StringResourceVisualizer.sln`,
and the old file is removed. The projects and the solution items are the same. The `.slnx`
format is XML, much shorter than the `.sln`, and designed to reduce merge conflicts
(https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/new-simpler-solution-file-format/).

Building it needs the .NET SDK 9.0.200 or later, or MSBuild from Visual Studio or Build Tools
17.13 or later. The project ids are the ones of the old solution, which is what Visual Studio
writes into the file itself. The build workflow names the solution now instead of relying on
MSBuild to find it, and the setup steps of the Copilot coding agent and the instructions name
the new file.
