power-bi-security

power-bi-security is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from julianobarbosa/claude-code-skills. It costs 84 tokens per session (1,035 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for restricting access to data in Power BI models. It covers row-level security, which filters data by user or role, object-level security, and perspectives that control what users can see.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and inspect security roles, limit data by region or team, export models for version control, and create user-focused perspectives.
Why use it?
It helps prevent users from viewing rows, tables, or columns outside their intended access.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is pbi database export-tmdl ./model-backup/.

Good fit Use it to create and inspect security roles, limit data by region or team, export models for version control, and create user-focused perspectives.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.

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

power-bi-security 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 8d 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 Security Skill

Manage row-level security (RLS) and perspectives for Power BI models.

Prerequisites

pipx install pbi-cli-tool
pbi-cli skills install
pbi connect

Security Roles (RLS)

# List all security roles
pbi security-role list

# Get role details
pbi security-role get "Regional Manager"

# Create a new role
pbi security-role create "Regional Manager" \
  --description "Restricts data to user's region"

# Delete a role
pbi security-role delete "Regional Manager"

Perspectives

Perspectives control which tables and columns are visible to users:

# List all perspectives
pbi perspective list

# Create a perspective
pbi perspective create "Sales View"

# Delete a perspective
pbi perspective delete "Sales View"

Workflow: Set Up RLS

# 1. Create roles
pbi security-role create "Sales Team" --description "Sales data only"
pbi security-role create "Finance Team" --description "Finance data only"

# 2. Verify roles were created
pbi --json security-role list

# 3. Export full model for version control (includes roles)
pbi database export-tmdl ./model-backup/

Workflow: Create User-Focused Perspectives

# 1. Create perspectives for different audiences
pbi perspective create "Executive Dashboard"
pbi perspective create "Sales Detail"
pbi perspective create "Finance Overview"

# 2. Verify
pbi --json perspective list

Common RLS Patterns

Region-Based Security

Create a role that filters by the authenticated user's region:

pbi security-role create "Region Filter" \
  --description "Users see only their region's data"

Then define table permissions with DAX filter expressions in the model (via TMDL or Power BI Desktop).

Department-Based Security

pbi security-role create "Department Filter" \
  --description "Users see only their department's data"

Manager Hierarchy

pbi security-role create "Manager View" \
  --description "Managers see their direct reports' data"

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.
