Check for memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md.
First, find the connection ID (see connector-reference.md):
Run the /list-connections skill. Find the Teams connection in the output. If none exists, direct the user to create one using the environment-specific Connections URL — construct it from the active environment ID in context (from power.config.json or a prior step): https://make.powerapps.com/environments/<environment-id>/connections → + New connection → search for the connector → Create.
pa app add data-source --connector teams -c <connection-id>
Ask the user what Teams operations they need (send message, post to channel, etc.).
PostMessageToConversation -- sends a chat message via Flow bot:
await TeamsService.PostMessageToConversation({
"Post as": "Flow bot",
"Post in": "Chat with Flow bot",
"Post message request": {
recipient: "<recipient-upn-or-id>", // UPN or Entra object ID
messageBody: "<p>HTML message</p>", // HTML format
isAlert: false,
feedbackLoopEnabled: false
}
});
Use Grep to find specific methods in src/generated/services/TeamsService.ts (generated files can be very large -- see connector-reference.md).
npm run build
Fix TypeScript errors before proceeding. Do NOT deploy yet.
Update memory-bank.md with: connector added, configured operations, build status.
development
(Preview) Builds and edits a model-driven Power Apps app from a natural-language intent — tables, columns, relationships, adaptive forms with sub-grids, views, Choice-column charts, generative page intents for overview/dashboard surfaces (page `.tsx` generated in generate-pages after plan approval), and an app module + sitemap — via the headless cds-maker-sdk. Runs an interactive, multi-turn authoring flow (env selection, jobs-to-be-done first, then design-only App Spec authoring across confirmed levels, guardrail lint, plan-mode approval, generate-pages, full build) and a narrated build, and can download a deployed app back into an editable spec to change it. Use when the user says "build an app for X", "create a model-driven app", "make me an app to manage Y", or "edit/add to my app". This skill stands alone and does not require /genpage — but for a standalone generative page added to an app that already exists, use /genpage instead.
data-ai
Use when the user wants to enable offline mode for a Power Apps mobile app and create a Mobile Offline Profile in Dataverse — designs per-table row scope, relationships, columns, and sync frequency through a 3-gate approval flow.
data-ai
Use when the user wants to design or redesign the Dataverse schema and connector plan for an existing mobile app, or has an ER diagram (image, Mermaid, or text) to apply. Skip when the user is creating a brand-new app — /create-mobile-app handles the data model inline.
tools
Use when the user wants to report a bug, file an issue, submit a bug report, or report any problem with the mobile-app plugin.
