Creates an ALM (Application Lifecycle Management) plan for deploying a Power Pages site across environments. Gathers your promotion strategy, target environments, and approval requirements upfront, then generates a visual HTML plan document for your review and approval. **plan-alm does not deploy anything itself** — it is a planner. After you approve the plan, run the individual ALM skills (setup-solution, setup-pipeline, deploy-pipeline, or export-solution/import-solution); each detects the…
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.

# plan-alm
A 4-phase **planner** that gathers ALM strategy from the user, generates an HTML deployment plan, and gets approval. **It does not execute anything** — execution is delegated to the individual ALM skills, which the user runs afterward.
## Overview
This skill detects the current project state (existing solution, pipeline), asks targeted questions about the desired promotion strategy (Power Platform Pipelines or Manual export/import), generates a visual `docs/alm-plan.html`, and gets user approval. The four phases are: **Phase 1 — Detect**, **Phase 2 — Gather strategy**, **Phase 3 — Generate plan**, **Phase 4 — Approve & save**.

How to install
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/plan-alm@sha256:e412da7d19ad508fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.aed70bf, 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.
