Summary

  • Fixes a false negative that could occur after a private .NET SDK installation, where the SDK availability check did not correctly detect the newly installed SDK.
  • Routes the SDK availability check through IDotNetRuntimeSelector to ensure the correct runtime resolution logic is used consistently.
  • Adds test coverage ensuring the check behaves correctly in the post-private-SDK-install scenario.

Test plan

  • Verify that after a private SDK install, the IDotNetRuntimeSelector-based availability check returns the correct result.
  • Run existing unit tests to confirm no regressions.
  • Manually test the SDK availability detection flow in a dev environment with a private SDK installed.

…ty check through IDotNetRuntimeSelector

1. Commands (New, Run, Add, Exec, Publish, Deploy) now inject IDotNetRuntimeSelector and call EnsureSdkInstalledAsync with 3 args
2. SdkInstallHelper.EnsureSdkInstalledAsync (3-arg) now trusts runtimeSelector.InitializeAsync() result directly - no redundant system-PATH check via DotNetSdkInstaller after private SDK install
3. DotNetRuntimeSelector.InitializeAsync() is now idempotent (caches result on first call)
4. Program.Main() no longer calls runtimeSelector.InitializeAsync() redundantly - commands handle it
5. Tests: Added TestDotNetRuntimeSelector, updated SdkInstallerTests to configure both DotNetSdkInstaller and DotNetRuntimeSelector for "SDK not installed" scenarios

Pull request overview

Note

Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.

This PR introduces a .NET Runtime Selector feature to the Aspire CLI, enabling the CLI to select between system-installed, privately-installed, or custom .NET SDK runtimes. When the system SDK is unavailable, it can offer to install a private SDK under ~/.aspire/sdk.

Changes:

  • Adds IDotNetRuntimeSelector / DotNetRuntimeSelector for selecting and managing .NET runtime mode (system, private, or custom), with settings-based and environment-variable-based configuration.
  • Adds IProcessLauncher / ProcessLauncher and SdkLockHelper to support launching processes with the correct runtime and managing concurrent SDK installations.
  • Updates all CLI commands to use the new runtime selector through SdkInstallHelper.EnsureSdkInstalledAsync.
