Interactive BPA rule generation for Power BI semantic models; guided discovery, model investigation, and expert rule authoring. Automatically invoke when the user mentions "BPA rule", "Best Practice Analyzer", or asks to "create a BPA rule", "audit BPA rules", "recommend BPA rules", "set up BPA for my team", "check model for best practices", "validate BPA rules", "improve a BPA expression".
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
# Best Practice Analyzer Rules Expert guidance for creating and improving BPA (Best Practice Analyzer) rules for Tabular Editor and Power BI semantic models. ## When to Use This Skill Activate automatically when tasks involve: - Creating new BPA rules for semantic model validation - Recommending or choosing BPA rules for a model, team, or organization - Improving or debugging BPA rule expressions - Writing FixExpression to auto-remediate rule violations - Understanding BPA annotations in TMDL files - Analyzing a semantic model against best practices - Converting ad-hoc checks into reusable BPA rules - Auditing or discovering all BPA rules across sources (built-in, URL, model, user, machine) ## Primary Workflow: Interactive Q&A Discovery (Double Diamond) **CRITICAL: Do NOT generate BPA rules immediately.** This is a requirements-gathering exercise. Use the `AskUserQuestion` tool to conduct an iterative, back-and-forth conversation with the user across multiple rounds. Continue asking questions until sufficient context about the user's business, team, model, and priorities has been gathered. Only then move to rule generation. The workflow follows a **double-diamond** pattern: …

How to install
mdr add santoshkanthety/powerbi-agent/powerbi-bpa-rules@sha256:7d3649d1955b568fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.22d6d33, 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.
