A build-and-deploy workflow for Power Apps code apps, which are applications developed with code and published to Microsoft Power Platform.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build an app, verify its output, deploy it to a chosen Power Platform environment, and capture the deployed app URL when available.
Why use it?
It checks the app build before deployment and prevents a failed build from being pushed. It also requires confirmation before updating the live app.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

deploy 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.

What it actually says

📋 Shared Instructions: shared-instructions.md - Cross-cutting concerns.

Deploy

Builds and deploys the app in the current directory to Power Platform.

Workflow

  1. Check Memory Bank → 2. Build → 3. Deploy → 4. Update Memory Bank

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Check for memory-bank.md in the project root. If found, read it for the project name and environment. If not found, proceed — the project may have been created without the plugin.

Step 2: Build

npm run build

If the build fails:

  • TS6133 (unused import): Remove the unused import and retry.
  • Other TypeScript errors: Report the error with the file and line number and stop. Do not deploy a broken build.

Verify dist/ exists with index.html before continuing.

Step 3: Deploy

Ask the user: "Ready to deploy to [environment name]? This will update the live app." Wait for explicit confirmation before proceeding.

Resolve the CLI first (see cli-binary.md): run as $PA app push (npx --no-install pa …), never a bare pa. On power-apps-only projects, translate to power-apps push.

pa app push

Capture the app URL from the output if present.

If deploy fails, report the error and stop — do not retry silently. Common fixes:

  • Auth error / token expired → pa auth logout (or power-apps logout on power-apps-only projects), then retry — the CLI will re-prompt browser login.
  • Environment mismatch → update environmentId in power.config.json to the correct value and retry.

Step 4: Update Memory Bank

If memory-bank.md exists, update:

  • Last deployed timestamp
  • App URL (if captured)
Changes

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.
