How to validate options at startup with IValidateOptions<T> in .NET 11

Implement IValidateOptions<T>, register it in DI, and chain ValidateOnStart so a bad appsettings.json kills the process instead of the first request that touches it. Covers the .NET 11 Validate<TValidator>() overload, async validation through IAsyncValidateOptions<T>, and the three places ValidateOnStart silently does nothing.

IOptions<T> vs IOptionsSnapshot<T> vs IOptionsMonitor<T> in .NET 11
