Skill instructions
📋 Shared instructions: shared-instructions.md — read first. Add Data Source Router skill that understands the user's goal and connects them to the right data source — without requiring them to know Power Platform terminology. Workflow Check Memory Bank Check for memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md. Understand the Goal 1. If $ARGUMENTS is provided or the caller already specified what's needed, use it directly and skip the question below. 2. Otherwise, ask the user what they want their app to do — not which connector to use. Focus on the end goal. Example questions: - "What kind of data does your app need to work with?" - "What should your app be able to do? (e.g., search company info, manage tasks, send messages)" 3. Based on their answer, recommend the best approach and explain why it's the right fit. The user shouldn't need to know the difference between Dataverse, SharePoint, or other connectors — that's our job. Route to the Right Skill | User's goal | Best approach | Invoke
