Power Platform Skills

Official agent skills/plugins for Power Platform development by Microsoft.

Overview

This repository is a plugin marketplace containing GitHub Copilot/Claude Code plugins for Power Platform services. Each plugin provides skills, agents, and commands to help developers build on the Power Platform.

Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

Run the installer to set up all plugins with auto-update enabled:

Windows (PowerShell):

iwr https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills/main/scripts/install.js -OutFile install.js; node install.js; del install.js

Mac OS/Linux/Windows (cmd):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills/main/scripts/install.js | node

The installer automatically:

• Installs pac CLI if not already installed
• Detects available tools (GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code)
• Registers the plugin marketplace and installs all listed plugins except dataverse
• Enables auto-update so plugins stay current

To also install the Dataverse plugin, pass --include-dataverse:

iwr https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills/main/scripts/install.js -OutFile install.js; node install.js --include-dataverse; del install.js

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills/main/scripts/install.js | node - --include-dataverse

The - tells Node to read the piped script, so the arguments after it reach the installer.

Available Plugins

Power Pages (plugins/power-pages)

Create and deploy Power Pages sites using modern development approaches.

Currently supported: Code Sites (SPAs) with React, Angular, Vue, or Astro

Model Apps (plugins/model-apps)

Build model-driven Power Apps end to end, and the generative pages that go in them.

Skills: /app-builder builds and edits a whole app — tables, relationships, forms, views, charts, security roles, app + sitemap — from a natural-language intent; /genpage builds generative pages for an app that already exists. Use either independently — neither requires the other

Stack: React + TypeScript + Fluent, deployed via PAC CLI and the headless cds-maker-sdk

PCF (plugins/pcf)

Build, test, diagnose, upgrade, deploy, verify and inventory Power Apps component framework (PCF) code components for model-driven apps, with guided setup for Power Pages field controls and canvas apps. Canvas apps need an admin to turn on Power Apps component framework for canvas apps in each environment.

Skills: /pcf:pcf scaffolds Microsoft-maintained PCF templates and recipes, runs gates, deploys with PAC, and verifies registration and bindings.

Status: Preview — see capabilities

Stack: Node.js 20+, Power Apps component framework, PAC CLI, .NET SDK, and Azure CLI for verification/inventory

MCP Apps (plugins/mcp-apps)

Generate self-contained JavaScript server runtimes, JSON Schema registration metadata, and interactive single-file MCP App widgets for codeful MCP tools.

Skills: /generate-codeful-mcp-tool creates a named runTool server entry point plus its description, MCP behavior annotations, input schema, and structured output schema, with verified Dataverse access; /generate-mcp-app-ui creates an HTML widget that embeds its runtime by default for hosts that block public URLs, while retaining an opt-in CDN mode. It can consume model-visible content, structured output, and widget-private metadata.

Stack: JavaScript codeful tools + HTML widgets using the MCP Apps protocol

Code Apps (plugins/code-apps)

Build and deploy Power Apps code apps connected to Power Platform via connectors.

Stack: React + Vite + TypeScript, deployed via PAC CLI

Mobile Apps (plugins/mobile-apps)

Build and deploy Power Apps code apps for mobile with native device capabilities.

Stack: Expo + React Native + TypeScript, deployed via Power Apps Wrap

Power Apps Mobile Extension (plugins/power-apps-mobile-extension)

Build third-party native controls for wrapped Canvas apps and package them as verified .ppmplugin bundles with matching dispatcher PCF controls.

Stack: Kotlin + Objective-C, Power Apps component framework, and Power Apps Wrap

Canvas Apps (plugins/canvas-apps)

Author Power Apps Canvas Apps using the Canvas Authoring MCP server.

Stack: PA YAML (.pa.yaml) authored via CanvasAuthoringMcpServer, requires .NET 10 SDK

Power Automate (plugins/power-automate)

Build, edit, run, and debug Power Automate cloud flows via the FlowAgent MCP server.

Stack: Node.js 18+, Azure CLI (az login), self-contained MC
