# Install nuget Package manager for Microsoft development platform including .NET. Version 7.6.0 via Homebrew; verified 2026-05-14. ## Install ```sh sudo av install brew:nuget ``` ## Agent safety answer nuget manages .NET packages and registry publishing. - **Credential access:** Reads NuGet API keys, package source credentials, and config files. - **Remote mutation:** Can push packages and change package-source state. - **Publish/artifact risk:** Can publish .NET packages and symbols. - **Recommended control:** Gate push, delete, source credential, and API-key commands. - **Agent-use guidance:** Allow restore/list; require approval for package publication and credential changes.
