Local Development
To develop and test plugins locally, follow these steps:
-
Clone this repository
-
Launch Claude Code with plugin path:
claude --plugin-dir /path/to/power-platform-skills/plugins/power-pages claude --plugin-dir /path/to/power-platform-skills/plugins/model-apps claude --plugin-dir /path/to/power-platform-skills/plugins/code-apps claude --plugin-dir /path/to/power-platform-skills/plugins/canvas-apps
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.
