Skill instructions
📋 Shared instructions: shared-instructions.md — read first. Debug App — Monitor & Fix Monitor the running app by reading the Metro dev-server terminal output, detect runtime and bundle errors, and fix them autonomously by editing the affected files (or routing to the right skill when the fix belongs in a domain like Dataverse schema or auth registration). For silent failures, inject temporary console.log statements at data-path boundaries, read the Metro terminal for output, then clean them up after the root cause is fixed. Modeled on the upstream app-debugger.agent.md pattern — foreground loop, 5-second cadence, exit on 3 consecutive clean polls. Dev-client limitation: the standalone dev client outputs app/runtime logs, React errors, and Metro bundler output to the terminal running npm run dev. This includes host runtime diagnostics that use strings such as [AuthProvider] MSAL init failed:, [bridge] fetch THREW for, [bridge] HTTP <status for, [addAadAppToConnectionAcl] failed HTTP <s
