Scrutor is a C# library providing assembly scanning and service decoration extensions for Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection. It lets developers register classes by convention (filtering by interface, lifetime, etc.) and wrap existing registrations with decorators via a fluent API.

Use cases

• auto-register services by convention in ASP.NET Core
• scan an assembly and register all classes implementing an interface
• decorate registered services with decorators in .NET DI
• register open generic types like query handlers automatically
• reduce boilerplate in IServiceCollection registrations
• apply different lifetimes to batches of services

When to choose

• you use Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection and want convention-based registration
• you need decorator support for DI-registered services
• you want to eliminate repetitive manual service registrations in large .NET codebases

When to avoid

• you use a different DI container with built-in scanning (e.g., Autofac, Lamar)
• your project has only a handful of services where manual registration is simpler
• you are not on the .NET platform
