power-automate-workflow-patterns

power-automate-workflow-patterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Wals-pro/claude-power-automate. It costs 73 tokens per session (350 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of design patterns for Microsoft Power Automate cloud flows. A cloud flow is an online automation made from triggers, data processing, connectors, branches, and actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design or restructure flows involving services such as SharePoint, Outlook, Dataverse, or HTTP APIs, including branching, retries, error handling, and testable sending paths.
Why use it?
It helps turn a business process into clear, maintainable steps instead of dense conditions or poorly separated error handling. It makes external service boundaries and important status evidence easier to see.

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-automate-workflow-patterns 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 2mo 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

Power Automate Workflow Patterns

Use this before designing or restructuring a Power Automate cloud flow. It adapts n8n-style workflow discipline to Power Automate concepts.

Pattern Workflow

  1. Pick the pattern from references/cloud-flow-patterns.md.
  2. Identify trigger, data source, transformation, action, and observability points.
  3. Keep solution-aware flows versioned through local artifacts.
  4. Use power-automate-action-configuration for connector payloads.
  5. Use power-automate-expression-syntax for conditions and dynamic content.
  6. Use power-automate-api-client for pull/diff/deploy/verify.
  7. Use power-automate-reference to confirm trigger/action type values and keep expressions inside the real WDL function namespace.

Design Rules

  • Prefer small, explicit branches over dense nested expressions.
  • Use scopes to group transactional steps and error handling.
  • Make connector boundaries visible: SharePoint lookup, Outlook send/draft, Dataverse write, HTTP call, etc.
  • Add observable evidence for critical paths, such as log rows or status updates, when the business process needs auditability.
  • Keep customer-facing send paths testable without sending directly from Claude.
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
