Power Platform Skills

Agent skills and plugins for Power Platform development, aligned for Equinor internal use.

Overview

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

Primary platform: GitHub Copilot (VS Code) via the .github/ convention. Also supported: Claude Code via the plugin marketplace system.

Equinor Fork

This repository is a fork of microsoft/power-platform-skills, maintained for Equinor internal use. It is not a neutral mirror — it applies Equinor governance, security standards, and the shared practices of the Equinor IT professional network before any plugin is piloted or published internally.

Tip

View the full diff on GitHub → — includes all changes: plugins, governance docs, dev container, and repo tooling. To see only plugin changes locally, run:

git diff upstream/main -- plugins/

Why a fork and not the upstream directly?

The upstream Microsoft plugins are designed for general Power Platform use across any organisation. Equinor has additional obligations that the upstream does not satisfy by default:

Concern	Equinor requirement
Governance gate	Every plugin must pass a review against docs/equinor-alignment/baseline.md before internal publication
Tech Radar	`Hold` items require an approved deviation permit; `Assess` items require Architecture Contract dialogue
Design standards	Generated UI must target Equinor Design System components, tokens, and accessibility guidance
MCP security	MCP-dependent workflows must be explicitly evaluated, documented, and opted into — they are not enabled by default
Production safety	Skills must not interact with production systems during development by default
Secret hygiene	No credentials, tokens, connection IDs, or environment URLs may be committed to this repository
Discovery	Internal plugins are published through Varia and TechDocs, not the public Microsoft marketplace

What's changed from upstream

The table below summarises every category of change. The review records in docs/equinor-alignment/reviews/ contain the detailed per-plugin assessment.

Category	What was added or changed	Why
`.github/skills/` and `.github/agents/`	`equinor-plugin-reviewer` agent + `review-plugin` and `sync-upstream` skills	Automates governance review and upstream synchronisation using the Equinor checklist
`docs/equinor-alignment/`	Baseline, checklist, JSON schema, and per-plugin review records	Provides the canonical, reviewable source of truth for internal publication decisions
`.github/skills/`	`review-plugin`, `sync-upstream`, `docs-conventions`, `docs-review`, `copilot-cost`, `update-copilot-pricing`	Installs Equinor-specific agent skills into every project that uses this fork
`.github/copilot-instructions.md`	Project-level Copilot instructions	Grounds Copilot in Equinor authority hierarchy (EMS → varia.equinor.com → Tech Radar → Microsoft docs)
`.github/instructions/`	Markdown, documentation, and alignment instruction files	Enforces shared Equinor documentation conventions across all AI-assisted authoring
`.devcontainer/`	Dev container with Equinor CA certificates and standard tooling	Ensures consistent, trusted development environments inside Equinor's network
`plugins/code-apps/`	EDS integration guidance, mandatory deploy confirmation, updated development standards	Aligns generated code apps with Equinor Design System and prevents accidental production deploys
`scripts/install.js`	Extended to support GitHub Copilot project-scoped installation and Equinor fork URL	Lets teams install into `.github/` for shared team use, not only user-level Claude Code install
`scripts/validate-plugin-reviews.js`	New script	CI-validates review records against the JSON schema before any plugin state change merges
`SECURITY.md`	Updated to Equinor responsible disclosure contacts	Replaces Microsoft-only disclosure path with Equinor contacts
`CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md`, `SUPPORT.md`	Removed	Superseded by Equinor's own conduct and support processes

Plugin publication status

Current review status for each plugin. A review record reaching controlled-pilot or higher means the Equinor alignment team has found sufficient evidence to recommend piloting — it is not a compliance certificate or a guarantee of correctness.

Plugin	Status	Review record
`code-apps-preview`	defer	reviews/code-apps-preview.json
`power-pages`	defer	reviews/power-pages.json
`model-apps`	defer	reviews/model-apps.json
`canvas-apps`	defer	reviews/canvas-apps.json
`mcp-apps`	defer	reviews/mcp-apps.json

defer means the plugin has an initial review record but lacks sufficient evidence (owner confirmation, DLP mapping, Tech Radar positioning, or EDS compliance) to recommend piloting. Plugins with a defer status warrant extra care — review the record and understand what is still outstanding before adopting them in your team's workflow.

Regardless of review status, AI agents are not a substitute for human judgement. No review process can guarantee that a plugin's output will be correct, compliant, or appropriate for your context. Alignment with Equinor standards is the goal of the review process, and we believe it helps — but responsibility for how these plugins are used always rests with the people using them. Practice responsible AI use: understand what a plugin does before running it, verify generated artefacts before deploying them, and raise concerns through the support channels listed in each review record.

Installation

GitHub Copilot (VS Code) — Project-Scoped

For team use, install skills and agents into your project's .github/ directory so all contributors benefit:

# Install a specific plugin (recommended)
node scripts/install.js --scope project --plugin code-apps-preview

# Install multiple plugins
node scripts/install.js --scope project --plugin power-pages,code-apps-preview

This copies agent definitions into .github/agents/, instructions into .github/instructions/, and skills into .github/skills/, following the GitHub Copilot customization convention. Commit these files to share with your team.

Note

There is no automatic update for project-scoped installs. To get the latest plugin content, re-run the installer and commit the updated files.

Or run without cloning:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/equinor/power-platform-skills/main/scripts/install.js | node - --scope project --plugin code-apps-preview

Available plugins: power-pages, model-apps, mcp-apps, canvas-apps, code-apps-preview

Claude Code — User-Scoped

For Claude Code users, the installer registers the marketplace and installs plugins at user level:

node scripts/install.js

Or run directly without cloning:

Windows (PowerShell):

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

macOS/Linux:

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

The installer automatically:

Detects available tools (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI)
Installs pac CLI if not already installed
Registers the plugin marketplace and installs all listed plugins
Enables auto-update so plugins stay current without manual steps

Manual Installation (Claude Code)

Inside a Claude Code session:

Add the marketplace

/plugin marketplace add equinor/power-platform-skills

Install the desired plugin

/plugin install power-pages@power-platform-skills
/plugin install model-apps@power-platform-skills
/plugin install code-apps@power-platform-skills
/plugin install canvas-apps@power-platform-skills

Running Without Interruption

Plugins in this repo may invoke multiple tools (file edits, shell commands, MCP servers) during a session, which can result in frequent approval prompts. Use the options below to reduce or eliminate these interruptions.

Warning

Auto-approval options give the agent the same access you have on your machine. Only use these in trusted or sandboxed environments.

Claude Code

Option 1 — Permission mode (recommended)

Set the acceptEdits mode to auto-approve file edits while still prompting for shell commands:

// .claude/settings.json (project-level) or ~/.claude/settings.json (user-level)
{
  "defaultMode": "acceptEdits",
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "Bash(npm run *)",
      "Bash(git *)",
      "Bash(pac *)"
      // add other commands your workflow needs
    ]
  }
}

Option 2 — Allow all tools

Press Shift+Tab during a session to cycle to auto-accept mode, or launch with:

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions

See the Claude Code permissions docs for the full reference.

GitHub Copilot CLI

Option 1 — Allow specific tools (recommended)

Pre-approve only the tools your workflow needs:

copilot --allow-tool 'write' --allow-tool 'shell(npm run build)' --allow-tool 'shell(pac *)'

Option 2 — Allow all tools in Copilot

copilot --allow-all-tools

To allow everything except dangerous commands:

copilot --allow-all-tools --deny-tool 'shell(rm)' --deny-tool 'shell(git push)'

See the Copilot CLI docs for the full reference.
