Individual skill

app-builder

Builds and edits a model-driven Power Apps app from a natural-language intent — tables, columns, relationships, adaptive forms with sub-grids, views, Choice-column charts, business rules, business process flows, generative page intents for overview/dashboard surfaces, and an app module + sitemap. Runs an interactive authoring flow with plan approval and can download a deployed app back into an editable spec to change it. Use when the user says "build an app for X", "create a model-driven app", "make me an app to manage Y", "add a business process flow", or "edit/add to my app". Do not use it for a generic web or React app or website, Power Pages, canvas apps, or Power Automate, or when the user rules out Power Platform, Dataverse, or model-driven apps (for example "no Power Platform"). This skill stands alone and does not require /genpage — but for a standalone generative page added to an app that already exists, use /genpage instead.

> **Plugin check**: Run `node "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-version.js"` — if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding.

> **Model check (lightweight models only)**: If you are a lightweight model optimized for fast, simple tasks, tell the user in your first message that `/app-builder` works best on a general-purpose coding model or an advanced reasoning model — designing the App Spec, reasoning about the dependencies between tables, relationships and artifacts, orchestrating the build and reconciling what already exists take multistep planning, tool use and validation — and recommend switching; then continue. On any other model, skip this note and say nothing about it.

# app-builder — intent → model-driven app

Turn a natural-language intent into a deployed model-driven app. You author a reviewable **App Spec**
(JSON) with the user across confirmed turns, then a deterministic engine (`cds-maker-sdk`, vendored)
builds it — tables/columns/relationships, sample data, views, Choice-column charts, adaptive forms
with sub-grids, **generative pages** for overview/dashboard surfaces, and the app module + sitemap.
The **same spec drives create and edit**: download a deployed app back into a spec, change it, and
re-run the build (it's idempotent).

## CRITICAL — run the interactive flow in THIS conversation (the main loop)
