Using Source Link to download source from local .snupkg for debugging

My understanding is that Visual Studio debugging doesn't support extracting sources from an embedded PDB. I've read that Source Link can use a local NuGet repo to download the source for debugging. I've created .nupkg and .snupkg of a test library, using this in the csproj:

<PropertyGroup>
  <SymbolPackageFormat>snupkg</SymbolPackageFormat>
  <IncludeSymbols>true</IncludeSymbols>
  <EmbedAllSources>true</EmbedAllSources>
</PropertyGroup>

I think I need to use Source Link to pull the source code from the .snupkg. However, all I can find in the documentation is how to download the source from online (GitHub, etc.). Is this possible?
