Browse and author Dataverse schema with PPDS — list entities/tables, inspect attributes/columns and relationships, create or update tables, columns, relationships, alternate keys, and global choices/option sets, compare schemas across environments, and adjust views and forms. Use when the user wants to know what columns or relationships an entity has, create or modify a table or column, manage option sets or keys, diff schema between environments, or edit a view or form definition.

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
# PPDS Metadata — schema as a first-class surface Exact flags: [references/cli-metadata.md](references/cli-metadata.md), [references/cli-schema.md](references/cli-schema.md), [references/cli-views.md](references/cli-views.md), [references/cli-forms.md](references/cli-forms.md). **Surface routing**: browsing is CLI or MCP; **schema authoring is one of the few places MCP is unusually strong** — the released server ships typed authoring tools (`ppds_metadata_create_table`, `ppds_metadata_add_column`, `ppds_metadata_update_column`, `ppds_metadata_create_relationship`, `ppds_metadata_create_choice`, `ppds_metadata_create_key`, `ppds_metadata_add_option_value`, and update variants). In a terminal the CLI equivalents live under the `ppds metadata` subgroups: entity, attribute, relationship, key, optionset. ## Browsing schema ```bash ppds metadata entities -f json # all tables ppds metadata entity account # full metadata for one table ppds metadata attributes account # columns, types ppds metadata relationships account # 1:N, N:1, N:N ppds metadata keys account # alternate keys …

How to install
mdr add joshsmithxrm/ppds-skills/ppds-metadata@sha256:5e700e8f812d977cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.4d56055, 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.
