re-dotnet-patch

MCP server for structured patching of Mono / .NET assemblies.

Status

v2.8.0 — SKELETON. Tool contracts are final and pinned by tests (tests/test_re_dotnet_patch.py). The actual round-trip patcher backend (dnlib / Mono.Cecil / pythonnet) lands in v2.8.1.

Every mutating tool currently returns a structured {status: "not_implemented", reason, remediation, schema_for_replay} dict, so:

  1. Downstream skills can target the tool names today.

  2. Callers can serialize the operation as a patch descriptor for later replay once v2.8.1 lands.

  3. The CHANGELOG entry for v2.8.0 can advertise the new server even though the backend is deferred.

Why a new server (not a helper in re-patch)?

re-patch is byte-splice only, pure-stdlib + mcp/pydantic. Adding a heavy dnlib / Mono.Cecil dep would bloat re-patch's surface for callers that only need a byte-splice. Per the v2.8.0 plan (approved 2026-06-07, LO decision), the Mono dnlib patcher ships as a new server to keep the dep boundary clean. Costs 1 server-count entry in .mcp.json (30 → 31).

What this server does NOT do

  • It does NOT NOP a method body today. v2.8.1 will. For v2.8.0, decompile the assembly with re-dotnet.decompile_type, edit the C# source by hand to stub the target method, then recompile.

  • It does NOT touch native / non-.NET binaries. Use re-patch for byte-splice; use re-vm-reverse for VM-protected native code.

  • It does NOT restore originals — call re-patch.restore_original directly. The rollback_patch tool delegates by-documentation.

Closing CD-3

The r03-stress run identified MonoLauncher::PASystemInfoScanner.MainWindow as the Mono Steam-gate target (see See the RE-AI output directory. for the full decompile). Once v2.8.1 lands the dnlib backend, nop_method("PASystemInfoScanner.MainWindow::GetSteamRegistryKey") will close CD-3 as a HIGH-confidence patch (currently DOC-ONLY).
