SOURCE.DOT.NET PROXY LAYER BROKEN, SOURCEBROWSER GETS MAJOR OVERHAUL

source.dot.net is serving HTTP 500s and stale assets because the proxy layer exposes bugs that local-disk deployments never catch, and SourceBrowser just got a significant upgrade that's likely its last.

In brief

source.dot.net proxy layer was serving 500s on .js and references. dotnet/source-indexer landed the fix. still wild that this broke in the first place.
SourceBrowser got a major overhaul. dotnet/source-indexer ported a ton of features from tannergooding's fork. the browser UI was lagging behind for too long.
Solution Explorer lazy-loads now. Nav pane filtering works. dotnet/source-indexer shipped UX polish that should've landed years ago.
Microsoft.Extensions.AI now has agentic workflow support. dotnet/extensions synced with OpenTelemetry's GenAI semantic conventions. that's the vibe.

The proxied index serving defects [1] stem from a single root cause: Azure blob storage serving paths that local deployments never exercise, which is why the new SourceBrowser deployment [2] only broke production. One specific failure: `Helpers.ProxyRequestAsync` unconditionally converts null ContentHash to Base64, crashing on `SolutionExplorer.html` [3]. The overwrite files shadowing the fresh index are the second blow [3], serving 28KB stale CSS and empty HTML placeholders instead of the new 45KB chrome. The good news: SourceBrowser just absorbed 42 commits of feature work from the maintained fork [2], and this update to the latest upstream is likely the last time that'll be necessary since the original repo is soft-archived. Meanwhile, the nav-pane improvements [4] add per-subfolder repo filtering for the VMR via `GenerateVmrRepoTags`, letting source.dot.net's 26 repos stay behind a single URL while filter tags route searches to originating repos. On the extensions side, OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic conventions now have agentic workflows [5] that auto-scan upstream and maintain an evergreen draft PR, removing manual sync work.

Action items

→ Deploy proxy layer null-check fix and rebuild blob storage index with fresh chrome before next source.dot.net sync dotnet/source-indexer [immediate]
→ Verify SolutionExplorer.html serves without 500 in proxied mode after deployment dotnet/source-indexer [immediate]
→ Monitor agentic workflow runs for OpenTelemetry alignment; expect automation to catch spec drift dotnet/extensions [monitor]
