Create an incremental generator, register syntax receivers, analyze compilation units, and emit generated source files with proper diagnostics.

Drive generation with attributes, use interceptors for method substitution, and ensure generated code is AOT-compatible for NativeAOT.

Write diagnostic analyzers with code fixes, register them as NuGet packages, and enforce architectural rules at compile time.

Integrate generators into MSBuild, control execution order, debug generator execution, and publish as analyzer packages.
