dotnet-legacy-aspnet

dotnet-legacy-aspnet is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Postpartum-genushyacinthus29/dotnet-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (397 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for maintaining classic ASP.NET applications built on the older .NET Framework, including Web Forms, older MVC, and IIS-based hosting. It also covers planning a gradual move to ASP.NET Core.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to troubleshoot and maintain Web Forms or legacy MVC apps, check IIS and configuration behavior, and plan modernization in manageable parts.
Why use it?
It helps avoid applying newer ASP.NET Core advice to an older application with different hosting, configuration, and request-lifecycle rules. It supports safer changes without breaking existing business behavior.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

dotnet-legacy-aspnet scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Legacy ASP.NET

Trigger On

  • working in Web Forms, legacy MVC, or classic ASP.NET applications
  • reviewing old IIS-centric configuration and lifecycle behavior
  • planning migration toward ASP.NET Core without breaking core business flows

Workflow

  1. Treat classic ASP.NET as a distinct stack with different hosting, lifecycle, and configuration rules from ASP.NET Core.
  2. Stabilize behavior first: routing, session, auth, server controls, configuration transforms, and deployment assumptions.
  3. Plan modernization in seams: isolate domain and service logic, then move replaceable edges instead of rewriting the whole app at once.
  4. Use dotnet-wcf or dotnet-entity-framework6 when the legacy app depends on those subsystems rather than flattening them into generic web work.
  5. Be careful with guidance copied from ASP.NET Core because middleware, DI, and hosting assumptions do not transfer directly.
  6. Validate in an environment that resembles real IIS and configuration transforms.

Deliver

  • practical maintenance guidance for classic ASP.NET
  • stabilized legacy behavior and modernization seams
  • a migration path that avoids unnecessary risk

Validate

  • classic and Core guidance are not mixed
  • legacy runtime assumptions are preserved deliberately
  • migration steps are incremental and testable

References

  • Migration Paths: strategies for migrating from ASP.NET to ASP.NET Core, including incremental migration, strangler fig pattern, and component-specific guidance
  • Maintenance Patterns: stabilization and maintenance patterns for legacy ASP.NET code, including abstraction layers, testing seams, and deployment practices

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
