Worked on enhancing reliability and developer experience for script-based operations in the microsoft/sqltoolsservice repository. Focused on backend development using C# and .NET, the work addressed a bug in script-as operations by implementing robust error aggregation with StringBuilder, ensuring all errors were collected and reported together rather than triggering premature exceptions. This approach improved diagnostic visibility and reduced noise from incomplete error messages, directly benefiting both customer and internal workflows. The changes also included careful dependency management to support error collection, along with targeted regression testing to validate stability improvements in scripting features relied upon by various users.
