Generate Python SDK code from a TypeSpec specification using the local emitter. Use this skill when the user wants to generate/regenerate a Python client from a TypeSpec spec, provides a GitHub URL or local path to a TypeSpec project, or says things like "generate from this spec", "emit Python from this tsp", "regenerate the SDK", or "compile this TypeSpec for Python".
Regenerate the local emitter and diff the generated code against the upstream baseline checked into autorest.python. Use this skill when the user wants to see how their emitter changes affect generated code compared to what's currently in production, says things like "diff upstream", "compare to baseline", "what changed vs production", "show me the diff", "how does this affect generated code", or wants to validate their changes produce the expected output differences.
Create a PR to bump TypeSpec/Azure Tools dependencies, update peer dependencies, or release a new version of the http-client-python package.
Prepare language emitter changes for PR: validate (build, format, lint), add a changeset, and push. This skill is specifically for the language emitter packages (http-client-python, http-client-csharp, http-client-java) - NOT for core TypeSpec packages like compiler, http, openapi3, etc. Use when the user wants to finalize emitter changes, says things like "prep for pr", "prepare for PR", "validate and push", "add changeset", or "finalize changes".
How to make minimal repos that the TypeScript team enjoys working with
Guide for using MSBuild Server to improve CLI build performance. Activate when developers report slow incremental builds from the command line, or when CLI builds are noticeably slower than IDE builds. Covers MSBUILDUSESERVER=1 environment variable for persistent server-based caching. Do not activate for IDE-based builds (Visual Studio already uses a long-lived process).
Guide for modernizing and migrating MSBuild project files to SDK-style format. USE FOR: converting legacy .csproj/.vbproj with verbose XML to SDK-style, migrating packages.config to PackageReference, removing Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs in favor of auto-generation, eliminating explicit <Compile Include> lists via implicit globbing, consolidating shared settings into Directory.Build.props. Indicators of legacy projects: ToolsVersion attribute, <Import Project="$(MSBuildToolsPath)">, .csproj files > 50 lines for simple projects. DO NOT USE FOR: projects already in SDK-style format, non-.NET build
Catalog of MSBuild anti-patterns with detection rules and fix recipes. USE FOR: reviewing, auditing, or cleaning up .csproj, .vbproj, .fsproj, .props, .targets, or .proj files. Each anti-pattern has a symptom, explanation, and concrete BAD→GOOD transformation. Covers Exec-instead-of-built-in-task, unquoted conditions, hardcoded paths, restating SDK defaults, scattered package versions, and more. DO NOT USE FOR: non-MSBuild build systems (npm, Maven, CMake, etc.), project migration to SDK-style (use msbuild-modernization).
Guide for diagnosing and improving MSBuild project evaluation performance. USE FOR: builds slow before any compilation starts, high evaluation time in binlog analysis, expensive glob patterns walking large directories (node_modules, .git, bin/obj), deep import chains (>20 levels), preprocessed output >10K lines indicating heavy evaluation, property functions with file I/O ($([System.IO.File]::ReadAllText(...))), multiple evaluations per project. Covers the 5 MSBuild evaluation phases, glob optimization via DefaultItemExcludes, import chain analysis with /pp preprocessing. DO NOT USE FOR: compi
Diagnose MSBuild build performance bottlenecks using binary log analysis. USE FOR: identifying why builds are slow by analyzing binlog performance summaries, detecting ResolveAssemblyReference (RAR) taking >5s, Roslyn analyzers consuming >30% of Csc time, single targets dominating >50% of build time, node utilization below 80%, excessive Copy tasks, NuGet restore running every build. Covers timeline analysis, Target/Task Performance Summary interpretation, and 7 common bottleneck categories. Use after build-perf-baseline has established measurements. DO NOT USE FOR: establishing initial baseli
Establish build performance baselines and apply systematic optimization techniques. USE FOR: diagnosing slow builds, establishing before/after measurements (cold, warm, no-op scenarios), applying optimization strategies like MSBuild Server, static graph builds, artifacts output, and dependency graph trimming. Start here before diving into build-perf-diagnostics, incremental-build, or build-parallelism. DO NOT USE FOR: non-MSBuild build systems, detailed bottleneck analysis (use build-perf-diagnostics after baselining).
Create Zustand stores with TypeScript, subscribeWithSelector middleware, and proper state/action separation. Use when building React state management, creating global stores, or implementing reactive state patterns with Zustand.
Create FastAPI routers with CRUD operations, authentication dependencies, and proper response models. Use when building REST API endpoints, creating new routes, implementing CRUD operations, or adding authenticated endpoints in FastAPI applications.
Finds Fabric items across every workspace with the Catalog Search API when the workspace is unknown, locating an item by display name, inventorying one item type tenant-wide, and returning the workspace and item IDs later calls need. Dataflow Gen1 and Gen2 items are not supported. Use only to locate items; once found, query them with the owning item skill such as sqldw-cli, spark-cli, eventhouse-cli or fabriciq.
Manage Power BI report workspace items and PBIR definitions in Microsoft Fabric via `az rest` CLI against the Fabric REST API. Use when the user wants to: (1) upload or publish a PBIR/report definition to Fabric, (2) get or download report definitions, (3) update report item definitions or properties, (4) list workspace reports, (5) delete reports. For editing PBIR files, pages, visuals, filters, themes, or formatting, use `powerbi-report-authoring`. For business questions over report data, use `fabriciq`. Triggers: upload PBIR report definition, upload Power BI report, download PBIR definitio
Governs Microsoft Fabric OneLake catalog health, protection, and trust through Fabric Admin, Core, and Power BI REST APIs. Use for tenant or owner-scoped audits and guarded remediation of domains, workspace assignment, capacity, labels, tags, descriptions, refresh, and item identity. Catalog item discovery belongs to search-consumption-cli.
Guide for implementing REST API wrapper functions. Use this when adding new API wrappers or troubleshooting API calls.
Guide for adding new functions to the library. Use this when implementing new API wrappers or utility functions.
Find and explore Windows desktop APIs. Use when building features that need platform capabilities — camera, file access, notifications, UI controls, AI/ML, sensors, networking, etc. Discovers the right API for a task and retrieves full type details (methods, properties, events, enumeration values).
Guidance for using the PowerPlatform Dataverse Client Python SDK. Use when calling the SDK like creating CRUD operations, SQL queries, table metadata management, relationships, and upload files.
Development guidance for contributing to the PowerPlatform Dataverse Client Python SDK repository. Use when working on SDK development tasks like adding features, fixing bugs, or writing tests.

Analyzes the user's business problem and recommends the right backend integration approach — Web API, AI Web API (generative summaries / grounded search), Server Logic, Cloud Flows, or a combination — for a Power Pages site, then routes to the appropriate specialized skill. Use when the user wants to add backend integration, connect to data, add AI summaries, or needs help deciding which backend approach to use.
