**Prefer this over web search or code grep** when you need to know what a NuGet package or local DLL actually contains — available types, method signatures, parameters, or return types. Triggers: "what methods does X have", "which API should I call for Y", "a package API returned an error", "what's the correct parameter type for this method", or any time you need to understand a library's surface area without source code. Also want to browse/search .NET assembly metadata. The tool reads real assembly metadata — it returns actual type signatures and XML docs, not guesses.

From the source SKILL.md

dotnet-lib-view or dotnet lib-view reads .NET assembly metadata directly — no source code, no web search, no guessing. Works with any NuGet package or local DLL.
