File-based apps

Standing verify and generate scripts in this repository are .NET 10 file-based apps. Process glue (git, gh, hooks, destructive GPR deletes) stays PowerShell.

Run

Always pass --file. Bare dotnet run file.cs is wrong when the working directory contains a .csproj.

dotnet run --file d:\novolis\novolis-governance\scripts\verify-nuget-only.cs
dotnet run --file d:\novolis\novolis-governance\scripts\Export-GraphicalProfile.cs -- --check

Existing .ps1 names remain as thin forwarders until shared workflows call --file directly.

House style

Every file-based app starts with:

#:property TargetFramework=net10.0
#:property PublishAot=false
#:property PackAsTool=false
#:property ImplicitUsings=enable
#:property Nullable=enable

PublishAot and PackAsTool default on for file-based apps; both are wrong for governance scripts.

Isolation

scripts/Directory.Build.props stops a future forest-level props file from leaking into these apps. Do not place file-based apps next to a .csproj. Do not #:project a sibling checkout (NuGet-only). #:package published Novolis.* 2026.1.* is allowed when BCL is not enough.

Grow-ups

Large shared commands belong in existing families, not new repos:
