Use the open-source free `cloc` tool for line-count, language-mix, and diff statistics in .NET repositories. USE FOR: repeatable LOC reports; language-mix or branch-diff statistics; codebase size and solution-composition measurements. DO NOT USE FOR: judging developer productivity from raw LOC; replacing behavioral verification, architecture review, or complexity analysis. INVOKES: inspect the repository context, edit targeted files, and run relevant build, test, lint, or validation commands whe

Prompt
When generating line count summaries for a C# solution, the numbers are inflated by build artifacts. Which specific directory patterns must be excluded from the count, and what status should be reported upon planning this setup?

CLOC for .NET Repositories
Trigger On
the repo wants cloc
the team needs repeatable LOC, language, or branch diff statistics for a .NET repo
the user asks about C# codebase size, solution composition, or code-count deltas between refs
Value
produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer
Do Not Use For
judging developer productivity from raw LOC
replacing behavioral verification, architecture review, or complexity analysis
counting generated or vendored files without an explicit reason
Inputs
the nearest AGENTS.md
target repository, solution, project, or subtree
the question being answered: footprint, composition, diff, or trend
Quick Start
Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.
