[solution]

Loads a C# solution (.sln/.slnx) or project (.csproj) for analysis. Optionally enables automatic file watching when workingDirectory is provided.

Why this tool exists

Loading is the point where Glider turns a folder of files into a project-aware semantic model of the solution.

How it helps the agent

After load, the model can ask semantic questions against the same project graph the C# toolchain understands.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
filePath	string	Yes	Absolute path to .sln, .slnx, or .csproj file to load.
workingDirectory	string	No	Optional working directory to watch for file changes. When provided, enables automatic sync of changed files.
includeProjects	boolean	No	Include detailed project information in response. Default is false.
