Microsoft Managed Apps is a project for building custom web applications with React, TypeScript, and Vite, and it provides Microsoft's official templates and development tooling. Developers use its SDK, CLI, and Vite plugin to create and manage these applications. Its catalogue add-ons help AI coding agents build Microsoft Managed Apps.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00052 | $0.01434 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00574 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00287 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00143 |
Grade A, and why
share-link 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 5d 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 — 136 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
📋 Shared Instructions: shared-instructions.md — Cross-cutting concerns.
Share Link
Manages tenant-wide JIT-redemption links for a Microsoft App. The first time a recipient opens a share link they are automatically granted the Microsoft App Reader role at the app scope — no explicit principal list required.
Three sub-commands:
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
ms app share link create |
Generate a new share link URL |
ms app share link list |
List all active share links |
ms app share link revoke |
Revoke a link by ID (removes redeemers' access) |
Note: Share links are for distributing play access tenant-wide. For granting named users play or edit access, use
/shareinstead.
Workflow
- Memory Bank → 2. Verify Project + Env → 3. Mode → 4. Run → 5. Surface Result
Step 1: Check Memory Bank
Read memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md for the app's environment/app identifiers, if recorded.
Step 2: Verify Project + Env
test -f ms.config.json || { echo "Not in a Microsoft App workspace."; exit 1; }
BIN=ms
$BIN auth status # must report the expected UPN
Both --app and --environment-id can be supplied explicitly to run from outside a project directory. When ms.config.json is present its appId and environmentId are used automatically.
Step 3: Mode
Ask the user which operation they want if not already clear from context:
- create — generate a new share link.
- list — show all active share links.
- revoke — delete a share link by ID (also removes access for past redeemers).
Step 4: Run
Create
$BIN app share link create
Flags:
| Flag | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
--app |
No | App name override. Defaults to appId in ms.config.json. |
--environment-id / -e |
No | Environment ID override. Defaults to ms.config.json. |
--json |
No | Machine-readable envelope: { success, appName, appShareLinkId, shareLinkUrl }. |
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.

share-link is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/managed-apps (36 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 1,434 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
