# .NET Rules

## Apply Order

1. start with `rules/common/`
2. layer `rules/dotnet/` for solution layout, hosting, dependency injection, and testing guidance
3. consult `knowledge-bases/seeded/dotnet/rules/dotnet/` when the seeded pack has deeper examples or framework cues

## Focus Areas

- solution structure, dependency flow, and public contract safety
- ASP.NET Core, worker, and library validation paths
- runtime configuration, security, and packaging expectations
