Its automatic. If it can't get the source, it will use its built in decompiler, and produce surprisingly readable source anyway (I force it to this mode by default, due to a flaky internet connection).

How does ReSharper managed to locate the 3rd-party source code?

Does ReSharper have their own source repository or some sort?

As the parent listed, Resharper by default will download MS sources for BCL. For a third party, it will show the decompiled source.
