Expert guidance for the Power BI Project (PBIP) file format; project structure, cross-cutting operations (renames, forking), and PBIX extraction/conversion. Automatically invoke when the user mentions PBIP, PBIX, .pbip/.pbism/.platform files, or asks about "PBIP project structure", "PBIP vs PBIX", "thin report vs thick report", "rename a table", "cascade rename", "fork a PBIP project", "convert pbix to pbip", "extract pbix", "what files are in a PBIP", "PBIP encoding", "definition.pbir", or…
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
# PBIP Project Format PBIP (Power BI Project) is the developer-mode file format for Power BI. It decomposes a `.pbix` binary into human-readable text files organized in folders, enabling source control, external editing, and multi-author collaboration. ## General, critical guidance - **This skill covers project structure, not file editing.** To modify TMDL files (semantic model), load the `tmdl` skill. To modify PBIR JSON files (report), load the `pbir-format` skill -- or preferably use the `pbir` CLI with the `pbir-cli` skill if available. Install with `uv tool install pbir-cli` or `pip install pbir-cli`; check with `pbir --version`. If the required skill is not loaded, ask the user to install the appropriate plugin before proceeding. - **PBIX is a black box; PBIP is transparent.** PBIX is a single binary that cannot be diffed or edited externally. PBIP splits the same content into text files. Convert between them with File > Save As in PBI Desktop. …

How to install
mdr add santoshkanthety/powerbi-agent/powerbi-pbip-format@sha256:988974297022cf0dThe 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.
