```

## Usage

```ts
import { execFileSync } from "node:child_process";

// Restore NuGet dependencies declared by Pams.API.csproj.
execFileSync("dotnet", ["restore", "Pams/API/Pams.API/Pams.API.csproj"], {
  stdio: "inherit",
});

// Build the API project after package restore.
execFileSync("dotnet", ["build", "Pams/API/Pams.API/Pams.API.csproj"], {
  stdio: "inherit",
});
```

## AI Coding Instructions

- Add or update package references in `Pams/API/Pams.API/Pams.API.csproj`.
- Run `dotnet restore` after changing NuGet package dependencies.
- Keep package versions compatible with the target framework configured by the project file.
- Avoid editing restored package assets directly; update the project dependency declaration instead.
