PAC CLI Update — PAC CLI and cli-wrapper version bump

Handles the most common update in this repo: bumping the PAC CLI binary version and/or the @microsoft/powerplatform-cli-wrapper npm package.

Invoke as:

• /pac-cli-update <pac-version> — e.g. /pac-cli-update 1.53.2
• /pac-cli-update <pac-version> <wrapper-version> — when cli-wrapper also has a new version

Always produces two PRs: one targeting main, one targeting release/stable. This is the standard release pattern for this repo — never merge a CLI update to only one branch.

---

Step 0 — Sync knowledge if stale

grep "## Last sync" memory/ado-knowledge.md 2>/dev/null | tail -1

If last sync was > 7 days ago or missing: run /knowledge-sync inline, then continue.

---

Step 1 — Verify the new PAC CLI version exists on nuget.org

# Confirm the version is published before touching any files
curl -s "https://api.nuget.org/v3-flatcontainer/microsoft.powerapps.cli/index.json" \
  | node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/dev/stdin','utf8')); console.log(d.versions.slice(-5).join('\n'))" 2>&1

# Confirm the linux package also exists (both must be present)
curl -s "https://api.nuget.org/v3-flatcontainer/microsoft.powerapps.cli.core.linux-x64/index.json" \
  | node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/dev/stdin','utf8')); console.log(d.versions.includes('<pac-version>') ? 'linux: found' : 'linux: NOT FOUND')" 2>&1

If the version does not exist on nuget.org, stop and report — do not create a PR for a non-existent version.

---

Step 2 — Sync with origin/main and create the main branch

git fetch origin 2>&1
git checkout main 2>&1
git merge origin/main --no-edit 2>&1
git checkout -b users/<alias>/cli-version-<pac-version> 2>&1

---

Step 3 — Update nuget.json

Edit both packages to the new version:

{
  "packages": [
    { "name": "Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI",              "version": "<pac-version>", ... },
    { "name": "Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI.Core.linux-x64", "version": "<pac-version>", ... }
  ]
}

Both packages must always use the same version. Never update only one.

---

Step 4 — Update extension/overview.md

Add a new entry under {{NextReleaseVersion}}: (do not remove the placeholder — it stays):

{{NextReleaseVersion}}:
- pac CLI <major.minor>, [Release Notes on nuget.org](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI/<pac-version>#releasenotes-body-tab)

If additional changes are in this update (new task, Node target bump, etc.), add bullet points below the pac CLI line.

---

Step 5 — Update cli-wrapper npm package (if applicable)

Only do this if a <wrapper-version> argument was given OR if the cli-wrapper changelog explicitly requires the new pac CLI version:

npm view @microsoft/powerplatform-cli-wrapper versions --json 2>&1 | tail -1

If updating, bump "@microsoft/powerplatform-cli-wrapper" in package.json dependencies and run npm install.

---

Step 6 — Verify

npm install 2>&1 | tail -5
npm run ci 2>&1

npm run ci runs: clean → compile → lint → restore (downloads the new pac CLI version) → unitTest → pack. Functional tests will fail locally (require live credentials) — expected, not a blocker.

If restore fails (pac CLI version not found), the version does not exist — stop and report.

---

Step 7 — Commit and push (main branch PR)

git add nuget.json extension/overview.md package.json package-lock.json
git status  # confirm only these files staged
git commit -m "chore: update pac CLI to <pac-version>"
git push -u origin HEAD 2>&1

Create the main-branch PR:

gh pr create \
  --base main \
  --title "Update pac CLI to <pac-version>" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- Bump PAC CLI from <old-version> to <pac-version>
- [Release Notes on nuget.org](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI/<pac-version>#releasenotes-body-tab)

## Changes
- `nuget.json`: both `Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI` and `Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI.Core.linux-x64` updated to `<pac-version>`
- `extension/overview.md`: release notes entry added

## Test plan
- [ ] `npm run ci` passes locally (restore downloads new pac CLI version successfully)
- [ ] Functional tests exempt (require live env credentials)

Step 8 — Create the release/stable branch PR

This is the production release. Create a second branch off release/stable:

git fetch origin 2>&1
git checkout release/stable 2>&1
git merge origin/release/stable --no-edit 2>&1
git checkout -b users/<alias>/cli-version-<pac-version>-release 2>&1

Cherry-pick the commit from Step 7:

git cherry-pick <commit-sha-from-step-7> 2>&1
git push -u origin HEAD 2>&1

Create the release PR:

gh pr create \
  --base release/stable \
  --title "[release] Update pac CLI to <pac-version>" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- Bump PAC CLI from <old-version> to <pac-version> on the release/stable branch
- Mirrors: <main-branch-pr-url>

## Changes
- `nuget.json`: both packages updated to `<pac-version>`
- `extension/overview.md`: release notes entry added

## Test plan
- [ ] Main-branch PR verified first
- [ ] Functional tests exempt

Step 9 — Final summary

Print:

1. PAC CLI: old version → new version
2. cli-wrapper: old → new (or "not updated")
3. Main PR: URL
4. Release PR: URL
5. Restore verified: yes / no (did gulp restore download the new pac CLI successfully?)

Then tell the user what to do after both PRs merge:

Once both PRs merge, queue the official build to sign, publish to Marketplace, and create the GitHub Release:
  https://dev.azure.com/dynamicscrm/OneCRM/_build?definitionId=21491

Pipeline variables to set when queuing:
  - GITHUB_TOKEN            GitHub PAT (repo scope, SSO enabled for 'microsoft' org)
  - AZ_DevOps_Read_PAT      PAT to read from the AzDO DPX-Tools-Upstream feed
  - isEsrpEnabled           true
  - PUBLISH_TO_MARKETPLACE  true

On success, a published GitHub Release will appear automatically at:
  https://github.com/microsoft/powerplatform-build-tools/releases/tag/v<new-extension-version>

That release will include:
  - All 4 signed VSIXs (LIVE, BETA, DEV, EXPERIMENTAL) as assets
  - Release notes extracted from `extension/overview.md`'s `{{NextReleaseVersion}}:` block
  - Latest tag

If the release does not appear, check the "Create GitHub release with VSIX assets" task in the build log — usually GITHUB_TOKEN scope or SSO authorization is the issue.

Hard rules

• Never update only one of the two nuget.json packages — both must match
• Never skip the release/stable PR — every CLI update needs both
• Never cherry-pick to release/stable without verifying the main PR CI passes first
• The {{NextReleaseVersion}} placeholder in overview.md must stay — add below it, never replace it
• If the Linux pac CLI package (Microsoft.PowerApps.CLI.Core.linux-x64) doesn't have the new version yet, wait — don't ship with mismatched versions
