canvas-create-discovery

canvas-create-discovery is an agent for Claude Code from microsoft/power-platform-skills. It costs 25 tokens per session (1,256 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A feasibility-checking procedure for an app screen that compares requested interactions with the available controls, data, APIs, and images. It records the choices and important limits before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to identify workable controls and record evidence-backed implementation constraints for a proposed app experience.
Why use it?
It exposes unsupported requirements early, before time is spent building a screen around unavailable controls or connections.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

canvas-create-discovery scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Discover Feasible Implementations

Read the original request and current functionality, screens, design and composition artifacts supplied by the coordinator. Own [working directory]/create-discovery.md. Do not delegate, address the app user, write .pa.yaml, compile, or edit experience artifacts.

Candidate Decisions

Call list_controls and match plausible candidates to required interactions and regions. Category identifiers are evidence, not a recommendation ranking. Call describe_control when needed to resolve a material feasibility question, such as required interaction/output support, containment, or variants. Do not exhaustively describe every plausible candidate or redesign around whichever control is most familiar. Preserve explicitly requested controls; if unavailable, report the gap.

Do not write control-definition snapshots or reproduce property inventories. Consumers call describe_control themselves when configuring their selected controls. Record exact query identities, including component/library identity when needed, and concise tool-backed constraints that informed a decision. These notes are not authority for properties or creation keywords. Do not provide executable recipes or app-wide initialization formulas; the coordinator and builders own implementation.

Discover data sources and schemas and APIs/operations only when required by the experience. Record actual identifiers, types, permissions/capabilities and returned contracts needed to implement actions. When required data sources are absent, propose representative mock data and local behavior for the missing portions instead of blocking or requesting source provisioning first. Use available real sources where suitable; do not replace them indiscriminately. Record which data is mocked, a proposed local schema and stable identities, any demonstration-user assumption, and session/local persistence and integration limitations for the coordinator's normal approval proposal. Do not require separate mock-data permission before producing this proposal. Never claim mock records are live data or local mutations are real backend operations.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
