Skill instructions
Plugin check: Run node "${PLUGINROOT}/scripts/check-version.js" — if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding. force-link-environment Move a dev or target environment's Power Platform Pipelines host association from one host to another. This is the documented remediation when deploymentenvironments create fails with "this environment is already associated with another pipelines host", and also the right tool when intentionally migrating environments between hosts. Microsoft Learn (ground truth): Using Force Link to associate an environment with a new host What this skill changes In the target host (the new host the user wants to use): - Marks the existing deploymentenvironments record as the active stamp for the BAP environment. - Re-runs validation; on success, validationstatus flips to Succeeded (200000001). In the previous host (the host the env was previously linked to): - The corresponding deploymentenvironments row is delinked. Its validationstatus is left stal
