Use this skill when a Power Platform or Dynamics 365 solution must progress through a structured dev-to-test-to-production release pipeline using managed solutions and Power Platform pipelines, when rollback readiness must be verified before go-live, or when a deployment approval gate must be enforced. Defines the full ALM release flow — solution packaging, pipeline stage progression, pre-deployment validation, approval, deployment, rollback verification, and post-deployment confirmation. Does…

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

# Environment-to-Production Release Protocol

## Purpose
This skill defines how Power Platform and Dynamics 365 solutions are packaged, validated, and promoted from development through test to production using managed solutions and Power Platform pipelines. It enforces the principle that only managed solutions reach production environments, that every deployment stage is preceded by pre-flight validation, and that a tested rollback path exists before a production deployment is approved. No agent authorizes a production deployment; that is a human decision by the environment owner or release manager.

## When to use
- A solution in a development environment is ready to be promoted to test or production via a Power Platform pipeline.
- A release manager needs a structured checklist and gate review before approving a production deployment.
- A rollback plan must be confirmed and tested before a go-live window opens.
- A Copilot Studio agent or Power Automate flow packaged in a solution needs to be promoted through ALM stages.
- A deployment failed and a structured rollback or recovery must be initiated.

## When NOT to use

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vincentchuwaichow/vanguard-frontier-agentic/environment-to-production-release-protocol@sha256:013a942f472d05ec

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
