Official
github·vlatest·backend·MIT

This skill generates C# code utilizing `async/await` for asynchronous operations, improving backend performance and responsiveness.

Install on your platform

Showing Claude Code. One command installs this skill into any of the agents below.

  1. 1

    Run this in your project

    terminal
    $ npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill csharp-async -a claude-code
  2. Uses the open-source skills CLI and needs Node.js. Add -g to install it for your user instead of this project.

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned github/awesome-copilot at 6c4d33b9cf.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The csharp-async skill enables AI agents to write and manage asynchronous code in C#. It provides support for handling tasks such as I/O operations, network requests, and background processing without blocking the main thread. This is especially useful in building scalable and responsive backend applications.

When to use it

  • When developing high-performance C# applications that require non-blocking I/O operations.
  • For implementing APIs or services that need to handle multiple concurrent requests efficiently.
  • When working with async/await patterns for managing long-running tasks like database queries or HTTP calls.
  • To improve the responsiveness of desktop or web applications by offloading heavy computations to background threads.

Key capabilities

  • Writing and debugging asynchronous C# methods using async and await.
  • Managing task cancellation and exception handling in async workflows.
  • Optimizing application performance with parallel processing and thread pooling.
  • Integrating with .NET libraries that support asynchronous programming models.

Example prompts

  • "Write an async method to fetch data from a REST API in C#."
  • "Implement a background task for file processing using async/await in a .NET Core application."
  • "Show me how to handle exceptions in an async C# function."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that all asynchronous methods are properly awaited to avoid unhandled exceptions.
  • Be mindful of thread pool limits when creating too many concurrent tasks, as it can lead to performance degradation.
