AI agents: use the documentation index at llms.txt to locate machine-readable pages. This section is indexed by https://docs.particular.net/nservicebus/llms.txt. The markdown version of this page is served as plain text. An MCP server at /mcp serves the same content via the search_docs and read_doc tools; it is read-only and needs no credentials. Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending .md to the page URL. Directory URLs use index.md. They are served as text/plain because some retrieval backends reject text/markdown.

Enforcement of best practices

Component:
NServiceBus
NuGet Package:
NServiceBus 8.x
Standard support for version 8.x of NServiceBus has expired. For more information see our Support Policy.

By default, messaging best practices are enforced for messages defined as either commands or events.

This feature can be disabled at the endpoint level using:

var routing = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport(new TransportDefinition());
routing.DoNotEnforceBestPractices();

or at the message level using:

var options = new SendOptions();

options.DoNotEnforceBestPractices();

await context.Send(new MyEvent(), options);
