 - **Power Pages config loading** must reuse `scripts/lib/powerpages-config.js` anywhere a script reads `.powerpages-site` table-permission or site-setting YAML. Keep that module focused on loading/parsing code-site config only; put validation or business rules in separate validator modules.
 - **Script changes require tests** — Whenever you add a new script or modify an existing script, add or update `node:test` coverage under `scripts/tests/`. Prefer one `*.test.js` file per script/module being tested, and keep the test command passing: `node --test plugins/power-pages/scripts/tests/` (Node's built-in runner discovers `*.test.js` files under the given directory). Validator changes are not an exception; they must always ship with test coverage.
 - **Dataverse-backed validation** must stay opt-in for local runs only. Do not require live Dataverse connectivity in CI workflows or default test runs; gate it behind explicit local flags such as `--validate-dataverse-relationships`.
-- **Azure CLI `--allow-no-subscriptions`** — pass this flag on AAD-only `az` operations (`az account get-access-token`, `az login`, `az account show`) so the plugin works for users whose Microsoft account has no Azure subscription. Do NOT add it to subscription-scoped commands (`az keyvault create|list`, `az group ...`, `az resource ...`) — those genuinely require a subscription. Reuse the shared `getAuthToken` helper in `scripts/lib/validation-helpers.js` instead of shelling out to `az` directly.
+- **Azure CLI `--allow-no-subscriptions`** — this flag is only valid on `az login`. Other `az` subcommands (`az account get-access-token`, `az account show`, etc.) reject it as an unrecognized argument and exit 2, so do NOT add it to anything other than `az login`. When the user is not logged in to the Azure CLI, suggest plain `az login` first; only suggest `az login --allow-no-subscriptions` as a fallback if they don't have any associated Azure subscription, since that variant lets subscription-less accounts sign in and still mint AAD-scoped Dataverse/Power Platform tokens via subsequent `az account get-access-token` calls. Reuse the shared `getAuthToken` helper in `scripts/lib/validation-helpers.js` instead of shelling out to `az` directly.
 - **Reference docs** shared across skills live in `references/` — reference via `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/` paths, don't duplicate.
 - **Templates** use `__PLACEHOLDER__` tokens (e.g., `__SITE_NAME__`) replaced during scaffolding. The `gitignore` file is stored without the dot prefix and renamed to `.gitignore` during scaffolding.
 - **Hooks** are defined centrally in `hooks/hooks.json`, using `PostToolUse` with matcher `Skill` so validation runs when a tracked Power Pages skill completes.
