powerbi

powerbi is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnPiyush/AgentX. It costs 50 tokens per session (3,549 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for creating Power BI business reports, data models, calculations, transformations, and visualizations. Power BI is Microsoft's tool for exploring data and sharing interactive reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design data models, write DAX calculations, transform data with Power Query, build report pages, optimize them, and deploy them.
Why use it?
It helps organize data and calculations so reports are accurate, useful, faster, and properly access-controlled.

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

powerbi 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 1mo 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.

Power BI

Reports, semantic models, DAX measures, and data visualizations for business intelligence.

Prerequisites

  • Power BI Desktop or Power BI Service workspace
  • Data source access (SQL Server, Fabric Lakehouse, Azure SQL, etc.)
  • For TMDL/PBIP: Power BI Desktop with PBIP format enabled

When to Use

  • Designing star schema semantic models for Power BI
  • Authoring DAX measures, calculated columns, and KPIs
  • Building Power Query (M) transformations for data ingestion
  • Creating report pages with interactive visuals
  • Optimizing report and model performance
  • Configuring row-level security (RLS)
  • Deploying reports via Power BI Service or Fabric workspaces
  • Setting up incremental refresh or DirectLake mode

Decision Tree

Working with Power BI?
+- Need a data model?
|   +- New from scratch -> Star schema design (this skill)
|   +- Existing Fabric Lakehouse -> DirectLake semantic model
|   +- Existing SQL database -> Import or DirectQuery mode
|   - Multiple sources -> Composite model
+- Need calculations?
|   +- Row-level calc -> Calculated column (avoid if possible)
|   +- Aggregate/filter-aware -> DAX measure (preferred)
|   +- Time intelligence -> Use DATEADD, TOTALYTD, SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR
|   - Complex logic -> DAX variables + CALCULATE
+- Need data transformation?
|   +- Simple column ops -> Power Query (M)
|   +- Complex ETL -> Dataflow Gen2 or Spark notebook
|   - Staging/connection -> Power Query with query folding
+- Need deployment?
|   +- Single workspace -> Publish from Desktop
|   +- Dev/Test/Prod -> Deployment pipelines
|   - Automated -> Power BI REST API or Fabric APIs
- Need governance?
    +- Data access -> Row-level security (RLS)
    +- Object-level -> Object-level security (OLS)
    - Endorsement -> Certified / Promoted datasets

Core Concepts

Star Schema

The foundation of every performant Power BI model. All models MUST use star schema design.

Table Type Purpose Naming Convention Key Properties
Fact Measurable events (sales, orders, clicks) Fact_Sales, Fact_Orders Numeric columns, foreign keys, date keys
Dimension Descriptive attributes (product, customer, date) Dim_Product, Dim_Customer Surrogate keys, descriptive columns, hierarchies
Bridge Many-to-many resolution Bridge_CustomerProduct Two foreign keys, optional weight column
Date Standard calendar dimension Dim_Date Mark as Date table, continuous range, no gaps

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.
