NameDescription
build_msbuild_projectA

Build an MSBuild project or solution (.sln, .csproj, .vcxproj) file using MSBuild.

This tool dynamically locates the MSBuild executable using the vswhere Python package. It supports flexible build configurations, including verbosity, platform, and additional arguments.

Parameters:

  • project_path: Path to the project or solution file to build.

  • configuration: Build configuration (e.g., Debug, Release).

  • platform: Target platform (e.g., x86, x64).

  • verbosity: MSBuild output verbosity (quiet, minimal, normal, detailed, diagnostic).

  • max_cpu_count: Maximum number of CPUs for parallel build (None for default).

  • restore: Whether to perform NuGet restore before build.

  • additional_args: Additional MSBuild command-line arguments.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 1 tool

Disambiguation5/5

Only one tool exists, so there is no ambiguity between tools.

Naming Consistency5/5

The single tool name 'build_msbuild_project' follows a clear verb_noun pattern and is descriptive.

Tool Count4/5

A single tool for building MSBuild projects is slightly under-scoped but reasonable for a focused server; additional tools like clean or list properties could be added.

Completeness3/5

The tool covers the core build operation with good configuration options, but lacks related operations such as clean or property listing, which may cause dead ends for some workflows.
