Skill UI

Diagnose and fix failures in built .ppmplugin controls: crashes, silent no-ops, PCF errors, or incorrect behavior. Investigates symptoms through error codes, manifests, native modules, and dispatch to locate root causes, then applies approved surgical fixes. Use when a control breaks on device.

Automates the generation of the Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) companion dispatcher. This tool bridges third-party native modules (like .ppmplugin) to the Power Apps host environment by utilizing the window.PowerApps.NativeExtension.sendAsync global. It handles manifest updates, message contract generation, and structured logging, enabling seamless native-to-UI communication within the Power Apps ecosystem.

This skill automates the deployment of the dispatcher PCF for third-party components to Power Platform environments. It rigorously verifies all necessary prerequisites (Node.js, .NET SDK, `pac` CLI) and executes `pac pcf push`. It guides the user through defining the publisher prefix, managing version bumps, and ensures the component is correctly packaged and deployed to the target environment.
