- All 7 existing Tier 1/2 knowledge files now include a BCApps Reference
section with concrete source links and observed patterns
- New: bcpt-scenarios-must-be-app-specific — PerformanceTest apps must
include app-domain BCPT scenarios, not only Microsoft generic samples
- New: permission-sets-must-follow-least-privilege — View/Edit/Admin
hierarchy with IncludedPermissionSets, mirroring BCApps BusFound pattern
- api-page-key-fields-must-be-editable-on-insert clarified: SystemId as
ODataKeyField + Editable=false is valid (auto-generated); rule applies
to consumer-provided key fields only

Users refer to tasks by taskNo in conversation (e.g. 'opgave 51').
Commit messages must use taskId (e.g. 8738) — different field.
Added explicit Gotcha block and sharpened step 3 in How to find.

Francis observes BC-MCP session patterns and identifies where existing rules
are too superficial (Type A sharpening) or where no rule covers the pattern
(Type B gap). Type B gaps are handed to Immanuel for Categorical Imperative
validation before entering BCQuality.
Immanuel guards the knowledge base by running four tests (universalizability,
project-specificity, clarity, additive value) before any rule is approved.
When a developer asks for open tasks, only return tasks from the project(s)
linked to the current git repository. Flag it if no project is linked.

pages unless explicitly CalcFields'd in OnAfterGetRecord
- stored-derived-fields-must-not-be-exposed-directly: Stored fields updated
only via OnValidate triggers can be stale; recalculate live in OnAfterGetRecord
- api-page-key-fields-must-be-editable-on-insert: ODataKeyFields with
Editable=false are rejected as unknown properties on POST
- api-page-least-privilege-write-access: Create dedicated minimal pages per
write concern rather than widening general-purpose pages
- agent-must-not-write-business-process-status: Agents must only write

* Make domain-skill knowledge discovery index-aware
The 6 AL domain review skills and read.md now enumerate candidate articles
from the BCQuality knowledge index (knowledge-index.json) instead of opening
every file under the domain folder to read its frontmatter. The worklist
selection predicate is unchanged (keywords intersect diff tokens, or topic
matches a changed object type) - only the discovery source changes, so the
same articles are selected. Full article bodies are read only for worklisted
entries.

* Reconcile §Source wording with the lean knowledge index
The BCQuality filter now emits a lean index whose per-article description is a
one-line hint rather than the full verbatim Description. Update the six domain
skills' §Source to say the index carries a one-line description hint (keywords,
title, and a one-line description) instead of the full description. The
worklist selection predicate is unchanged: keywords drive selection and the
agent opens worklisted articles in full for their rule bodies.

* Own the knowledge-index generator in BCQuality
The knowledge index is an acceleration of the skills' Source step, and its
schema is part of that contract — so BCQuality should own the generator rather
than each consumer re-implementing it. Add tools/Build-KnowledgeIndex.ps1 (the
parser + lean-description shaping + emit, lifted verbatim from the
BCAppsBCQuality filter prototype) and document the index in agent-consumption.md.
Consumers prune their clone to policy, then call this script; the index stays
in lockstep with the Source contract and every orchestrator gets the same
faithful index for free. The worklist selection predicate is unchanged.

* Own knowledge-index generation in BCQuality (runtime + CI), not the consumer
The index is now produced by BCQuality itself: Entry's preparation step
rebuilds knowledge-index.json over the live, already-pruned clone at the start
of every run, and a new CI workflow validates the generator's health
(determinism, full coverage, selection-input integrity). Consumers no longer
invoke or know about the index.
Rebuilding over the pruned clone (vs shipping a committed full-corpus index)
keeps the index exact for any consumer policy: it can never list a denied
article, so policy-excluded rules cannot leak into discovery. READ now states
the index is discovery-only -- a finding must cite an article opened in full,
and rows whose file is absent are discarded before ranking.
- skills/entry.md: new 'Preparation -- knowledge index' precondition
- skills/read.md: index ownership + discovery-only invariant
- microsoft/skills/review/*.md (6): 'BCQuality builds' (not 'the filter emits')
- agent-consumption.md 5a: runtime+CI ownership rationale
- .github/workflows/knowledge-index.yml + scripts/Test-KnowledgeIndex.ps1: generator guard
- .gitignore: never commit the runtime index
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Make runtime index build non-interactive and self-contained
entry.md now gives the exact build command (pwsh ./tools/Build-KnowledgeIndex.ps1)
so the agent's preparation step is unambiguous, and the generator's -BCQualityRoot
parameter is optional (defaults to the clone root) so it runs in non-interactive
-p mode without prompting.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Resolve knowledge-index root to absolute path (cross-platform fix)
Get-ChildItem.FullName is always absolute, so deriving the relative article
path via Substring(\.Length) requires an absolute root. A relative root
such as '.' (used by the CI guard's 'Test-KnowledgeIndex.ps1 -Root .') left the
full path almost intact on Linux, producing bogus 'home/runner/.../knowledge'
paths and failing the coverage check. Normalise both the generator's
-BCQualityRoot and the test's -Root with Resolve-Path before use.

Agent findings (model-judgment findings not backed by a curated knowledge
file) were producing too many false positives. Raise their emission bar and
make them advisory:
- skills/do.md: add a canonical 'Precision bar' for agent findings (emit only
concrete, material defects an expert would agree on; steelman first; an
explicit never-emit list; 'when in doubt, omit') and cap agent-finding
severity at minor (advisory, non-gating), with a promotion note for
severe-but-uncovered concerns.
- al-code-review.md: decouple the mandatory self-review reasoning from output
so emitting zero agent findings is a valid outcome; add the severity cap.
- Six leaf review skills: add the per-domain precision bar and severity cap
(style leaf gets domain-appropriate wording).
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
BCQ now wins on coverage in the synthetic complex benchmark, but only
2 of 25 rendered comments carried GitHub suggestion blocks while the
AIRHack reviewer emitted suggestions for every finding. Tighten the
DO contract and leaf-skill instructions so suggested-code is no longer
a soft affordance for mechanical fixes.
Changes:
- Add optional findings[].suggested-code-omission-reason to the DO
schema.
- Document suggested-code as expected for small, local, mechanical
findings, with examples (delete unreachable code, Count() > 0 ->
not IsEmpty(), move local Label, add missing ToolTip/OptionCaption,
replace string-concatenated Error, change permission token, add an
obvious else/guard branch).
- Require omission reasons when a mechanical-looking finding omits
suggested-code.
- Update all AL leaf skills and al-code-review guidance with the same
stronger contract.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
The original DO contract pinned all agent reasoning to the super-skill:
'Agent findings are emitted only by super-skills... Leaf sub-skills MUST
NOT emit agent findings'. This funnels all agent reasoning across all 6
domains through a single super-skill pass, which is the root structural
cause of the attention dilution we have been chasing in BCAppsBCQuality
PRs #28 and #30:
- T1 standalone run showed al-security-review finds rimd-on-read-only
cleanly when run alone, but emits zero agent findings because the
contract forbids it. So obvious things like case-without-else (no
matching KB article yet) get dropped on the floor.
- The al-code-review self-review pass keeps producing 0-1 agent findings
per PR because it is asked to reason across 6 domains in one pass.
The fix is to move agent reasoning into the leaves, bounded by each
leaf's domain. Each leaf now has both knowledge-backed and agent-finding
permissions within its own scope; the super-skill self-review pass
becomes a smaller, cross-cutting role.
skills/do.md
- Replace the 'only by super-skills' / 'MUST NOT' clause with a
two-tier model: leaf sub-skills MAY emit agent findings strictly
within their declared domain; super-skills MAY emit agent findings
for cross-cutting concerns that span domains.
- Update the encoding rules: leaf agent findings have references:[]
and an agent:-prefixed id, no from-sub-skill (the leaf's own report
carries the finding under its own skill.id). Super-skills set
from-sub-skill='agent' for their own self-review findings; when
rolling up leaf agent findings, they set from-sub-skill=<leaf-id>.
- Clarify that 'MUST validate against knowledge' applies to super-
skill self-review candidates only - leaves already validated within
their domain when they decided to emit.
microsoft/skills/review/al-{security,performance,privacy,style,upgrade,
ui}-review.md
- New paragraph after the confidence rules instructing each leaf to
surface domain-specific agent findings when no knowledge file
covers a defect the agent recognises from general AL knowledge.
- Bound the scope: 'The scope is strictly <domain>; defects outside
this domain belong to other leaves and MUST NOT be emitted here.'
- Same validation requirement: check the worklist for a matching
knowledge file first; if one exists, upgrade to a knowledge-backed
finding instead.
microsoft/skills/review/al-code-review.md
- Rewrite the 'Agent self-review pass' subsection. The pass is now
explicitly for cross-cutting concerns that no single leaf could
have surfaced because they span multiple domains. Domain-specific
reasoning belongs in the leaves, not duplicated here.
- Update the rollup behavior to acknowledge leaf-emitted agent
findings: they are rolled up like any other sub-skill finding, with
from-sub-skill set to the leaf id, and are not re-validated by the
super-skill (the leaf already validated within its own domain).
- Drop the 'Leaf sub-skills MUST NOT emit agent findings' line.

Drop the specific pattern checklist (architecture-level smells, error-
handling gaps, magic constants, privacy/telemetry surface, resource
lifecycle - with concrete code patterns under each). It baked case-
study findings into the skill contract and aged badly. Replace with a
domain-level framing: walk by the domains the sub-skills already cover
(performance, security, privacy, style, upgrade, UI) plus the cross-
cutting concerns (architecture, error handling, resource lifecycle).
The domains are anchors for completeness, not a script.
The structural rule - do an explicit self-review pass after the leaves
- is what carries the value. The content of the pass belongs in the
agent's general AL judgement and in the knowledge layer.

The Execution-discipline change + suggested-code propagation in the
skills is the structural fix. The two knowledge articles
(case-must-handle-unknown-enum-values, instream-length-unreliable-for-bc-streams)
were T4 follow-ups derived from a single parity case study; they need
broader review before landing as canonical BCQuality knowledge and are
out of scope for this PR.

Driven by a parity comparison between BCAppsBCQuality PR #27 and
BCAppsCampAIRHack PR #162 on byte-identical content:
| | BCQuality | AIRHack |
|--|--|--|
| Total findings | 6 | 10 |
| Performance | 0 | 4 |
| Security | 0 | 5 |
Standalone runs of al-security-review and al-performance-review against
the SAME diff produced the expected matches (rimd-on-read-only via
inherent-permissions-minimal-grant; redundant-Get via
avoid-redundant-get-when-record-already-loaded). The miss in the live
run is therefore not a knowledge-coverage gap and not a worklist
filtering issue. It is attention dilution inside the al-code-review
super-skill, which the model collapses into one rolled-up generation
pass on real-size PRs.
Changes:
microsoft/skills/review/al-code-review.md
- New 'Execution discipline (mandatory)' subsection in the Action step
that explicitly forbids collapsing leaves into one shared reasoning
pass and requires each sub-skill to walk its Source -> Relevance ->
Worklist -> Action steps as its own iteration before the next leaf
starts.
- Self-review pass is now described as the final, mandatory iteration
with a concrete candidate-category checklist (architecture-level
smells, error-handling gaps, magic constants, privacy/telemetry,
resource lifecycle). Returning zero agent findings on a real-size
diff is explicitly defined as a defect.
microsoft/skills/review/al-{security,performance,privacy,style,
upgrade,ui}-review.md
- Each leaf skill now states that when an unambiguous .good.al
companion exists, findings[].suggested-code should carry the
literal replacement for the source lines. Closes the
one-click-suggestion gap created when BCQ#19 only updated
al-code-review.
microsoft/knowledge/security/case-must-handle-unknown-enum-values.{md,
bad.al,
good.al}
- New article: case over a security-sensitive enum (Authentication
Type, Authorization Mode, Identity Provider, Permission Scope,
Encryption Algorithm) MUST have an else arm. Without it, an unknown
enum value silently falls through and the security context never
initialises. The bad sample is lifted from the SharePoint Graph
helper that triggered the parity finding.
microsoft/knowledge/performance/instream-length-unreliable-for-bc-
streams.{md,bad,good}
- New article: InStream.Length returns 0 / partial for HTTP-response
streams and some file-API streams, breaking size-threshold branching
in upload code. Bad sample is the simple-vs-chunked Graph upload
pattern; good sample materialises into a Temp Blob first.
Companion change: microsoft/BCAppsBCQuality#28 extends the
orchestrator's bootstrap prompt with the same per-iteration execution
discipline and adds a CI warning when a >5-file PR returns zero agent
findings (regression signal).

Adds the contract field, skill instructions, and two knowledge articles
that BCAppsBCQuality's PR-review agent needs to match (and exceed) the
coverage of the embedded review agent in BCAppsCampAIRHack:
skills/do.md
- New optional findings[].suggested-code field. Documents what it MUST
contain (a literal line-replacement payload) and when to emit it.
microsoft/skills/review/al-code-review.md
- Instructs both the agent self-review pass and rolled-up sub-skill
findings to populate suggested-code when the fix is mechanical.
- Lists examples (dead code removal, Count > 0 -> IsEmpty, object-scope
Label) that map to issues observed in the parity comparison.
microsoft/knowledge/style/telemetry-event-id-stable-unique.{md,bad.al,good.al}
- New knowledge article: telemetry event IDs must be stable, unique,
and non-placeholder. Closes a gap surfaced by the parity comparison.
microsoft/knowledge/style/labels-declared-at-object-scope.{md,bad.al,good.al}
- New knowledge article: Labels must live in the object-level var
block, not in procedure-local var blocks. Closes the second gap.
microsoft/knowledge/privacy/no-pii-in-telemetry-message-string.md
- Adds an explicit note that changing DataClassification alone does not
make embedding PII into the message string acceptable, plus links to
the two adjacent privacy articles. Resolves the privacy advice the
parity comparison flagged as ambiguous.
