Use when the user wants to iterate on an existing generated Power Apps mobile app after /create-mobile-app: update Application Insights configuration, the plan, data model, native capabilities, design, screens, generated app code, and preview without restarting the full project flow. Natural-language triggers include 'the app already exists', 'edit my app', 'change this screen', and 'add a feature to this app'.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

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

**Shared instructions: [shared-instructions.md](../../shared/shared-instructions.md)** — read first.

# Edit App (`/edit-app`)

Post-generation editor for an existing mobile app. `native-app-plan.md` remains the source of truth, but the default outcome is a fixed generated app, not a plan-only diff. After the user approves the plan delta, continue into Dataverse/native/design/screen mutations, run verification, update `memory-bank.md`, and regenerate the static preview when UI changed.

Use `--plan-only` only when the user explicitly asks to update planning docs without changing app code. Normal follow-up prompts in Copilot Chat Agent mode should apply the app change end to end.

## Edit documentation protocol

Keep two HTML files current during every edit:

- `<edit-temp-dir>/edit-app-progress.html` shows the live operation checklist.
- `docs/create-app-plan.html` remains the living description of the app.

Both are best-effort documentation. A rendering failure does not authorize a mutation, cancel an

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/edit-app@sha256:0892f06aedbed76a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.8a10052, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
