- AddNetworkSecurityPerimeter() API
- WithAccessRule() for inbound/outbound access rules
- WithNetworkSecurityPerimeter() for associating PaaS resources
- Enforced vs. Learning access modes
- List of supported Azure resources
Also adds a shell What's new in Aspire 13.3 page with an NSP highlight
and a sidebar entry.
Fixes #689

* Document Azure:CredentialProcessTimeoutSeconds option (#731)
* Document Azure:CredentialProcessTimeoutSeconds option
Adds documentation for the new Azure:CredentialProcessTimeoutSeconds configuration option introduced in microsoft/aspire#16175. The option lets users override the credential subprocess timeout (range 5-600) when az login validation is slow due to antivirus, network latency, etc.
- Adds the option to the Local Azure provisioning configuration table and a new 'Credential process timeout' section.
- Adds a 'Configurable Azure credential timeout' section to the What's new in Aspire 13.3 doc.

* Add BYO cluster callout and link to AddAzureKubernetesEnvironment
Both walkthroughs now clearly state they use a bring-your-own-cluster
model and link to the AKS integration page for Aspire-provisioned
clusters.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Add bash/PowerShell tabs to az CLI setup commands
All multi-line az/kubectl commands now have both bash and PowerShell

* Fix invalid hash link to OTLP section in apis.mdx
* Remove Copilot UI references from dashboard/explore.mdx
* Document framework-specific gotchas for JS publish methods (#787)
* Document framework-specific gotchas for JS publish methods
Expands the JavaScript apps deployment doc with framework-specific guidance
covering the three new publish methods (PublishAsStaticWebsite,
PublishAsNodeServer, PublishAsNpmScript) added in Aspire 13.3.
- Add a Dev-mode API proxying subsection covering the API_HTTP injection and
per-framework dev-server proxy patterns (Vite, Astro, Angular).
- Expand the framework reference table with build entry points and the
framework-side configuration each publish method requires.
- Add a Framework-specific gotchas section with verified links to the
canonical framework docs for Nuxt, Astro SSR, SvelteKit, Next.js,
TanStack Start, Remix / React Router, Qwik City, Angular, and Vite.
- Cross-link from AddNextJsApp and AddViteApp on the JavaScript integration
page to the relevant deployment-page sections.
- Fix a pre-existing broken link to /fundamentals/service-discovery/overview/
introduced in #765.

* Clarify API_HTTP and API_URL env var conventions
Address PR #787 review feedback:
- Explain that API_HTTP follows the service-discovery <RESOURCENAME>_<SCHEME>
convention and is added by WithReference (or by passing apiTarget to
PublishAsStaticWebsite).
- Clarify that API_URL is not auto-injected — it is a custom env var that
SSR-framework examples set explicitly via WithEnvironment.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Use API_HTTP consistently; drop fictional API_URL references
API_URL is not an Aspire convention — it was a custom variable used in the
sample repo. Use the actual auto-injected service-discovery variable
API_HTTP (<RESOURCENAME>_<SCHEME>) throughout the SSR gotchas so readers
can reproduce the examples without an extra WithEnvironment call.

* [docs] Add Podman support for Docker Compose deployment (#764)
* docs: add Podman support for Docker Compose deployment (aspire#16074)
- Document Podman as a supported container runtime for Docker Compose deploys
- Describe auto-detection logic (parallel probe, prefer running, Docker tiebreaker)
- Add Podman-specific behavior note (podman-compose / service discovery)
- Document breaking change: IContainerRuntime → IContainerRuntimeResolver

IContainerRuntime → IContainerRuntimeResolver' section from the Docker
Compose deployment doc. That guidance belongs elsewhere (if anywhere)
rather than in the Docker Compose deployment guide.

* Apply doc-tester findings from end-to-end Podman validation
- aspire-doctor.mdx: replace synthetic example output with the real CLI
format observed on Aspire CLI 13.3.0 (✅/⚠️/❌ glyphs, 'v<version>:
running' prefix, '(<reason>) ← active' suffix, real header names).
Add a third example showing the explicit-configuration override.
- docker-compose.mdx: document the ASPIRE_CONTAINER_RUNTIME=docker|podman
override and call out the Podman ≥ 5.0.0 minimum (Ubuntu 24.04 ships
4.9.x and is rejected by aspire doctor; use Fedora 42+ or another
distro that packages Podman 5).
Verified against a clean Fedora 43 droplet with Podman 5.6.2:
aspire publish + aspire deploy completed end-to-end (25/25 steps),
podman-compose 1.5.0 was used automatically, and aspire doctor
reported each runtime/reason combination above verbatim.

* [docs] Add browser logs documentation (#775)
* docs: add browser logs documentation
Documents the BrowserLogs feature (WithBrowserLogs) and the new
Configure Tracked Browser dashboard command added in
microsoft/aspire#16531.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Move browser logs to integrations/devtools and address review feedback
- Move page from /dashboard/browser-logs to /integrations/devtools/browser-logs
(it documents an AppHost integration, not a dashboard telemetry feature)
- Use 'Aspire' branding instead of '.NET Aspire'
- Remove unused MDX imports (Aside, Steps, LearnMore)
- Drop unnecessary WithExternalHttpEndpoints from examples; clarify that
WithBrowserLogs works on any resource with an HTTP/HTTPS endpoint
- State the child resource naming pattern explicitly (<parent>-browser-logs)
- Add command IDs (open-tracked-browser, configure-tracked-browser,
capture-screenshot) alongside dashboard display names
- Document accepted UserDataMode config values (Shared/Isolated, case-insensitive)
- Note that per-resource keys take precedence over global keys
- Reference 'aspire secret set' for user-secrets initialization
- Add new section explaining browser process sharing and tab semantics:
one process per (executable, user-data-directory), one tab per session,
cross-AppHost adoption via CDP

* Document the Aspire.Hosting.Browsers package on the browser logs page (#792)
* Document the `Aspire.Hosting.Browsers` package on the browser logs page
The browser logs feature now ships as a standalone hosting package
`Aspire.Hosting.Browsers`. The integration page didn't tell readers
which package to install — it jumped straight from the introduction
into a `WithBrowserLogs()` example, which left users guessing.
- Add an 'Install the package' section with the standard
`InstallPackage` component pointing at `Aspire.Hosting.Browsers`.
- Update the code example titles from `AppHost/Program.cs` to
`AppHost.cs` to match the Aspire 13.x convention.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Add TypeScript AppHost samples to the browser logs page
The Aspire TypeScript codegen now exposes `withBrowserLogs(options?)`
on resources, mirroring the C# `WithBrowserLogs(...)` extension. Add
TypeScript variants alongside the C# samples following the same
`Tabs syncKey='aspire-lang'` pattern used on the PostgreSQL hosting
page, and fix the `InstallPackage` prop name to match the component
contract (`packageName`).
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Add TypeScript install path for the browser logs package
Mirror the PostgreSQL installation pattern: wrap install in an
`aspire-lang` Tabs block with a C# tab (CLI, file-based AppHost
directive, PackageReference) and a TypeScript tab (CLI plus the
`aspire.config.json` packages entry). The `InstallPackage` component
only covers C# install methods, so it can't represent the TypeScript
config workflow.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Use AddViteApp in browser logs samples
Browser logs apply to any HTTP/HTTPS resource, but a Vite frontend
makes the example more concrete (and matches a common scenario where
console output is what readers want to see). Use `AddViteApp` /
`addViteApp` in both code blocks.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Refine browser logs page after doc-tester pass
- Lead with 'any browseable resource' framing and call out that Vite
is just an example. Add a pointer to Aspire.Hosting.JavaScript so
readers know AddViteApp lives in a different package.
- Annotate the '../web' path so copy-pasters know what directory the
example expects.
- Chain the TypeScript fluent API directly off addViteApp(...) instead
of splitting through an intermediate const, matching the rest of the
TS code samples in the page.
- Link 'aspire secret set' to its CLI reference and clarify what
follow-up clicks of 'Save to user secrets' do.

* Remove accidental Playwright MCP snapshot dump
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Link to JavaScript integration page instead of NuGet
Per docs convention, link to the in-site integration page for
Aspire.Hosting.JavaScript (where the Vite resource is documented)
rather than the NuGet listing. Drop the NuGet emoji link from the
Aspire.Hosting.Browsers package mention as well.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Address PR feedback: add ASPIREBROWSERLOGS001 article, use InstallPackage
- Create /diagnostics/aspirebrowserlogs001/ article and link the
diagnostic ID mention in the browser-logs page to it.
- Add the new diagnostic to the diagnostics overview table.
- Replace the hand-rolled C# install tab with the shared
<InstallPackage packageName="Aspire.Hosting.Browsers" /> component
for consistency with other integration pages. The TypeScript tab
keeps its hand-rolled aspire.config.json snippet.

* [docs] Use `aspire destroy` in deployment cleanup tutorials (#790)
* Use `aspire destroy` in deployment cleanup tutorials
Replace the legacy clean-up steps in the getting-started deploy
tutorial and the Docker Compose / Azure Container Apps deployment
guides with `aspire destroy`, which now provides a unified,
interactive teardown flow:
- get-started/deploy-first-app.mdx: drop the per-target Tabs
(`aspire do docker-compose-down-env` / `az group delete`) in both
the C# and TypeScript pivots and call `aspire destroy` instead.
The command auto-detects the deployment target and shows what will
be removed before proceeding.
- deployment/docker-compose.mdx: replace the `aspire do
docker-compose-down-{env}` example in 'Clean up deployment' with
`aspire destroy`.
- deployment/azure/container-apps.mdx: replace the manual
`az group delete --name <rg>` example with `aspire destroy`.
Each cleanup step now includes a caution/danger admonition warning

* Use `aspire deploy --list-steps` in deploy tutorial protip
The `aspire do diagnostics` subcommand was removed from the CLI in
favour of the `--list-steps` flag exposed by every pipeline command
(`aspire deploy`, `aspire publish`, `aspire destroy`, `aspire do`).
Update both pivots of the get-started deploy tutorial to point
readers at `aspire deploy --list-steps` and link to the
`aspire deploy` reference instead of `aspire do`.

* Replace stale `aspire do diagnostics` references with `--list-steps`
The `aspire do diagnostics` subcommand has been removed from the CLI.
The replacement is the `--list-steps` flag, which is exposed by every
pipeline command (`aspire deploy`, `aspire publish`, `aspire destroy`,
and `aspire do`) and lists the steps that would run for that command,
in execution order, without running them.
Update the explanation pages and CLI reference accordingly:
- deployment/pipelines.mdx: replace the dedicated `Discovering available
steps` example, the migration steps under 'Pipeline steps and
dependencies', and the post-migration tip Aside. Trim the descriptive
bullet list to what `--list-steps` actually outputs (no orphaned-step
detection or 'what-if' simulation language).
- whats-new/aspire-13.mdx: rewrite the 'Pipeline diagnostics' bullet to
describe `--list-steps` instead of a now-removed subcommand.
- reference/cli/commands/aspire-do.mdx: rewrite the 'Discovering
available steps' section and the corresponding example to use
`aspire do --list-steps`.
Verified against `aspire do --help` / `aspire deploy --help` on Aspire
CLI 13.3.0+be8c19e: `--list-steps` is documented as 'List the pipeline
steps that would be executed, without running them.'

* docs: document command result output for resource commands
Document the new CommandResults.Success(result, format) overload and
CommandResultFormat enum introduced in microsoft/aspire#15622.
Covers:
- Returning plain-text and JSON structured output from resource commands
- How results flow through Dashboard (TextVisualizerDialog), CLI (stdout),
and MCP tools (TextContentBlock)
- The CommandResultFormat enum values (None, Text, Json)
- Replica aggregation behavior for result data
- CLI piping tip using stderr/stdout separation
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Fix command result output docs against actual public API
The original draft from PR #15622 codegen had several inaccuracies that
would have prevented the examples from compiling:
- ExecuteCommandResult exposes Data (CommandResultData?), not Result and
ResultFormat. ErrorMessage is now [Obsolete]; Message replaces it for
both success and failure messages.
- CommandResults.Success(message, result, format) takes a status message
as the first argument; the previous samples omitted it.
- CommandResultFormat is { Text, Json, Markdown } — None was removed
from the public API and Markdown was never documented.
- The Failure overload accepts the same payload shape, and the
CommandResultData.DisplayImmediately flag auto-opens the dashboard
visualizer.
Also adds parallel TypeScript examples (using the object-literal
ExecuteCommandResult / CommandResultData shape) under aspire-lang Tabs,
mirrors the existing example using Message in the property bullet list,
and documents both the toast/CLI/MCP routing and the visualizer locking
behavior for Json and Markdown.

* Use realistic access-token scenario and add CLI invocation section
- Replaces the placeholder `getConnectionString` / `GetConnectionStringAsync`
helpers with a self-contained `issue-access-token` example. The text
variant returns the raw token; the JSON variant returns token + expiresAt
+ scopes. C# uses `RandomNumberGenerator.GetBytes(32)`; TypeScript uses
`crypto.randomUUID()`. Both variants compile/type-check verbatim.
- Adds an "Invoke commands from the CLI" subsection documenting:
- The `aspire resource <resource> <command>` syntax.
- The stdout/stderr split (status to stderr, payload to stdout).
- That `Markdown` payloads are rendered in the terminal, not raw.
- The 0/non-zero exit-code contract for scripting.
- A realistic `jq` pipe and a script branch on the exit code.

Wraps the C#-only walkthrough sections (Add custom commands, Execute

RpsArena playground pattern: inline withCommand registration, HTTP-based
command logic via getEndpoint + fetch, and plain object-literal results.
Adds <Aside> callouts where the TypeScript SDK genuinely lacks a feature
the C# AppHost has:
- UpdateCommandStateContext.resourceSnapshot (no equivalent)
- Programmatic command execution via ResourceCommandService (C# only)

* Prep aspire.dev for Aspire 13.3 release (May 7, 2026) (#860)
* Prep aspire.dev for Aspire 13.3 release (May 7, 2026)
Cuts the docs site over to 13.3.0 stable. Lands one tooling fix
(partial-class nested types) and the matching renderer change so the
new FoundryModel provider classes surface on the API reference page,
then refreshes every generated data file from the release/13.3 darc
feed (darc-pub-microsoft-aspire-5bd693ae).
Tooling
- PackageJsonGenerator: emit `nestedTypes` (full names of public
nested types) on every CanonicalType. Roslyn merges partials, so
GetTypeMembers() picks up nested types contributed by every source
file (e.g. FoundryModel + FoundryModel.Generated.cs). Filters out
compiler-generated and non-public types.
- PackageJsonGenerator.Tests: regression test for partial-class
nested-type collection (13/13 pass).
- update-schemas.ts: new --ref <sha|ref> flag so the aspire-config
schema can be fetched by SHA when the release tag isn't yet
published. Defaults to v<version> as before.
Renderer
- csharp-api-markdown.ts and pages/.../[type]/index.astro: render a
new "Nested Types" section with kind pills and summaries when
type.nestedTypes is populated. FoundryModel now surfaces all 14
provider classes (AI21Labs, Anthropic, BlackForestLabs, Cohere,
Core42, DeepSeek, Local, Meta, Microsoft, MistralAI, OpenAI,
StabilityAI, XAI, plus the namespace root).
AppHost
- Bump Aspire.AppHost.Sdk and the two PackageReferences from 13.2.0
to 13.3.0 in src/apphost/Aspire.Dev.AppHost.
Doc sweep (13.2.0 -> 13.3.0)
- support.mdx: 13.3 supported row + 13.2 demoted to out-of-support;
Last updated badge -> May 7, 2026.
- aspireconf/index.mdx: branding 13.2 -> 13.3.
- Code samples in app-host/typescript-apphost, get-started/aspire-sdk,
install-cli, add-aspire-existing-app,
extensibility/multi-language-integration-authoring,
reference/cli/commands/aspire-{add,init,new},
integrations/databases/postgres/postgres-host.
Regenerated data
- aspire-integrations.json: 156 packages.
- pkgs/*.json: 94 Aspire packages at 13.3.x (deleted matching
13.2.0 siblings); CommunityToolkit packages from nuget.org as before.
- ts-modules/*.json: 54 modules.
- twoslash/aspire.d.ts: regenerated bundle (31 DTOs, 29 enums,
235 handle types).
- samples.json (15), github-stats.json (5),
schemas/aspire-config.13.3.0.schema.json + index.json.
Tests
- Unit (vitest): 132/132 (one fixture-path bump for the regenerated
Aspire.Hosting.13.3.0.json fixture).
- .NET: PackageJsonGenerator 13/13, AtsJsonGenerator 5/5.
- Lint: clean.
- Playwright: 112 passed, 6 unrelated cookie-consent failures
(pre-existing, not touched by this change), 1 flaky WCAG case.
* Fix support page: 13.2.x latest patch is 13.2.4 (April 24, 2026)
The support table incorrectly listed 13.2.3 (April 22, 2026) as the latest 13.2.x patch. Aspire.Hosting 13.2.4 was published to nuget.org on 2026-04-24.
* docs: update CLI command docs for non-interactive options (aspire#16235) (#744)
- aspire update: add --yes/-y and --nuget-config-dir options, remove
outdated note that non-interactive mode is unsupported
- aspire agent init: add --workspace-root, --skill-locations, and

* [release/13.3] Restructure VS Code extension page (polyglot + screenshots) (#849)
* Backport: Restructure VS Code extension page for 13.3
Ports the polyglot/13.3 restructure of the VS Code extension docs from docs/vscode-extension-polyglot:
- Restructured aspire-vscode-extension.mdx (intro, Install, Getting started, Scaffold + integrations, Live editor integration with CodeLens/gutter/title-bar buttons, Aspire view, Run/debug/deploy with launch.json examples, Language coverage, Feedback).
- Added code-extension-{codelens,sidebar,debug}{,-light}.png screenshot assets.
- Updated configuration.mdx 'Associate the schema in Visual Studio Code' note to point to the extension.
* Address Copilot review: grammar fixes and remove misleading deploy command from launch example
* Remove redundant intro sentence about live state surfaces
* Wrap Getting started in Steps; mention manual schema fallback for users without the extension
* Correct gutter icon table and editor title button labels to match shipped extension
* Update New Aspire project screenshot to show new template list
* Use distinct dark and light New Aspire project screenshots
* Use distinct light theme image for Aspire panel sidebar
* Use new image for Aspire panel dark theme
* Use new image for Aspire panel light theme
* Remove width=400 on Aspire view image so full window screenshot renders responsively
* Trim transparent padding from screenshots; ignore generated twoslash types
* Use actual dark theme screenshot for Aspire sidebar
* Add debug screenshots (dark+light) and re-trim all extension screenshots
* Remove install + live-editor screenshots
* Move Aspire view screenshot up under Live editor integration
* Replace new project screenshots and trim transparent borders
* Move debug sessions screenshot below launch.json examples
* Caption new project screenshot
* Tighten new project caption
* Remove center alignment from new project caption
* Reword intro lede
* docs: update multi-language integration guide for ATS-first API design (#756)
Documents the getter-only-to-async-method behavior introduced in
microsoft/aspire#16403 and adds a new 'Callback context types and the
ATS-first editor pattern' section explaining:
- How getter-only C# properties map to async methods in generated
TypeScript SDKs, while mutable-collection properties remain as
readonly getters
- The ATS-first editor/facade pattern for callback context types
(EnvironmentEditor, etc.) that should be used instead of
ExposeProperties = true on callback context classes
- How to define, export, and consume callback extension methods like
withEnvironmentCallback, withArgsCallback, and withUrls

* docs: update aspire init and add-to-existing-app for skill-driven aspirification (#776)
Document the new two-phase aspire init behavior introduced in microsoft/aspire#15918:

the aspireify agent skill instead of performing full project wiring itself
- The --source and --version options are deprecated
- Update aspire-init.mdx: new description, aspireify skill section, updated examples
- Update add-aspire-existing-app.mdx: explain the two-phase init flow for both
C# and TypeScript AppHosts

* Document MaxResourceCount telemetry limit option for dashboard (#797)
Add MaxResourceCount to the TelemetryLimits configuration table in the
dashboard configuration docs. This new option (default 10,000) limits the
number of resources tracked by the dashboard to prevent unbounded memory
growth in long-running sessions with dynamic services or high-cardinality
peer addresses.

release/13.3based on the source PR milestone13.3(confirmed thatorigin/release/13.3exists onmicrosoft/aspire.dev). Note: this branch was created frommain(which contains the same stale content) and targeted atrelease/13.3.Why this PR is needed
microsoft/aspire#15528 removed the MCP server and UI from the Aspire Dashboard. The dashboard-hosted MCP endpoint, authentication configuration, and related infrastructure were deleted. The MCP server is now exclusively provided by the Aspire CLI (
aspire agent mcp).The existing documentation still referenced:
