Skill UI

Details the PBIP (Power BI Project) format, which converts the opaque PBIX binary into a clear, structured, and editable set of text files. This guide covers project structure, cross-cutting operations (like renaming and forking), and the technical differences between Thick and Thin reports, enabling better Git integration and multi-author collaboration.

A comprehensive CLI tool for programmatically exploring, building, formatting, and managing Power BI reports. It supports the entire report lifecycle, including connecting to semantic models, running validations, creating mockups, and publishing reports to Fabric workspaces for reliable and structured report development.

A comprehensive reference for the Power BI Enhanced Report (PBIR) JSON format. This skill details the structure of report metadata, including visual configurations (visual.json), report-level settings, theme inheritance, and complex formatting rules. It is essential for developers needing to read, interpret, or programmatically interact with the internal workings and schema of Power BI reports.

A comprehensive guide for authors and developers on managing, writing, and validating Power Query M expressions within semantic model partitions. Covers critical concepts such as Query Folding for performance optimization, best practices for filtering and type handling, and advanced techniques for testing M code using the Power Query API.

This skill provides expert guidance on Public Relations (PR) and maximizing earned media for software products. It teaches the philosophy of successful pitching, focusing on identifying strong stories (trends, data, human narrative) rather than just the product. Learn four modes of outreach—reactive newsjacking, proactive pitching, inbound requests, and owned assets—to build brand legitimacy, backlinks, and industry authority from journalists and publications.

A comprehensive guide and set of tools for embedding dynamic Python visualizations (using matplotlib and seaborn) into Power BI reports. It details the structured workflow, including script injection, data handling (dataset DataFrame), and mandatory best practices for generating static PNG output. Ideal for advanced data analysis and complex reporting.

An interactive workflow designed to audit and standardize naming conventions within Power BI semantic models stored as TMDL files. It ensures that tables, columns, measures, and display folders adhere to consistent, human-readable, and business-aligned standards. The tool guides users through gathering critical business context before auditing and applying complex, cross-file reference updates to maintain data integrity.

This skill enables the generation of rich, inline SVG graphics directly within Power BI reports. By writing DAX measures that return SVG markup strings and setting the data category to ImageUrl, users can visualize complex charts (like sparklines, gauges, and progress bars) within standard visuals such as Tables, Cards, and Matrices. It guides users through the entire process, including recommended best practices like using existing UDF libraries and adhering to strict VAR-based DAX structures.

The te CLI is a cross-platform, self-contained binary providing expert guidance for managing, validating, and deploying semantic models (BIM/TMDL). It enables users to perform complex data operations—such as scaffolding, inspecting, editing DAX, running BPA, querying, and refreshing models—entirely from the terminal, making it essential for CI/CD pipelines and automated data workflows.

A comprehensive guide for searching documentation across multiple BI sources (TE docs, DAX.guide, SQLBI, Power BI/Fabric) using the pbi-search CLI. It also details the structure and use of critical configuration files, such as .tmuo, Preferences.json, and UiPreferences.json, essential for advanced data modeling and deployment.

A comprehensive guide to the Tabular Editor 2 command-line interface (CLI). It provides essential syntax and usage examples for automating data model management. Key functions include deploying models to XMLA endpoints, executing inline C# scripts, running Best Practice Analyzer (BPA), validating schemas, and integrating model processes into CI/CD pipelines in Windows environments.

Provides expert guidance for authoring and editing Tabular Model Definition Language (TMDL) files directly within PBIP projects. This skill is useful for making quick text-level fixes (like descriptions, format strings, or adding measures) when specialized tools (like Tabular Editor CLI or Power BI Desktop) are unavailable, especially for Git workflow or manual adjustments.
