Sekiban DCB's Decider template ships three worked feature slices for an agent to copy. In this walkthrough, review, implementation, build, concurrency tests on a real PostgreSQL database and UI fixes took under an hour.

The absolute numbers describe an i5 in Docker with about 8 GB available, and the author says the relations between the profiles are hypotheses for you to retest rather than results any other service can inherit.

OpenAI's create response reference is explicit that a chained request does not inherit earlier instructions, and because the field is optional, the turn that loses your JSON contract or your safety text still succeeds.

The combination of InlineArray and an explicit StructLayout.Size still compiles on .NET 10, and then throws TypeLoadException the first time the type loads, which can be a cold interop path inside a dependency you did not build.

On .NET 9 a lone UTF-16 surrogate in a virtual list view target became EF BF BD and reached the server as a target the application never chose. On .NET 10 the encoder refuses, and the failure lands at the client.

In the final 2026-07-28 MCP spec, an empty nextCursor means keep going. A falsy check ends the loop instead, and the call still returns success.

NU1015 replaces a warning that used to resolve the lowest version on the feed. The same markup is correct under Central Package Management, so the error names a symptom, not an owner.

The rendered message still sits at the top level, but code that walked into State to find it now gets null with no error. Microsoft calls the change a behavioral breaking change.

The new tools spec lets structuredContent be any JSON value. A client hard-coded to read structuredContent.result keeps compiling, keeps passing, and starts finding nothing on the wire.

The finalized Streamable HTTP transport mirrors tool arguments into Mcp-Param-* headers. A bad suffix, an excluded type, or an unreachable annotation kills the tool definition, so validate before tools/list.

Microsoft.Testing.Platform streams results during the run instead of at clean shutdown. That only pays off if your CI uploads artifacts after a failing test step.
