FBakkensen/bc-agentic-dev-tools

Local mirror of Microsoft AL Guidelines (alguidelines.dev) for searching agentic coding rules, vibe-coding standards, AL best practices, and community resources. Use when: (1) Writing or reviewing AL code and need naming conventions, code style, or formatting rules, (2) Implementing event subscribers, error handling, or performance patterns, (3) Setting up AI-assisted development with Claude/Copilot/Cursor agent configurations, (4) Looking for MCP server integrations (AL-ObjID, BC-Code-Intel, NAB), (5) Understanding classic NAV/BC patterns like Document, Journal, Hooks, or Master Data. Content includes: vibe-coding-rules/ (7 AL-specific rule files), BestPractices/ (~27 topics), patterns/ (facade, template-method, event-bridge), NAVPatterns/ (~50+ classic patterns), and CommunityResources/ (agent configs, MCP tools).

Build and test AL/Business Central projects. Use after modifying AL code or tests to verify the build gate passes. Runs compilation, publishing, and test execution in a single command. Required gate before committing AL changes.

Allocate the next available Business Central AL object ID/number by scanning .al files and idRanges in app.json using the bundled PowerShell script. Use when creating new tables/pages/codeunits/extensions and you need a free object number.

Local mirror of standard Business Central W1 source code (fbakkensen/bc-w1) for searching events, APIs, tables, fields, tests, and implementation patterns. Use when: (1) Finding events to subscribe to (e.g., posting events, validation triggers), (2) Understanding how standard BC implements features (discounts, pricing, document posting), (3) Looking up table/field definitions and relationships, (4) Finding test patterns and test library usage (Library - Sales, Library - Inventory), (5) Checking APIV2 implementations for external integrations, (6) Referencing System Application utilities (Email, Azure AD, Barcode). Content includes: BaseApp/ (~165 modules: Sales, Purchases, Inventory, Finance, Manufacturing, Warehouse), BaseApp/Test/ (~30 test apps), System Application/ (~80+ platform modules), APIV2/ (REST API pages), ExternalEvents/ (business events), testframework/ (Assert, Any, TestRunner).

AL test development patterns with telemetry verification. MANDATORY when: (1) planning test implementation, (2) creating new tests, (3) modifying existing tests. Invoke proactively at ALL three stages. PLANNING: Structure plans with Red-Green-Refactor phases and use TodoWrite to track progress through each phase. CRITICAL RULE: DEBUG-* telemetry must be ZERO at both task START and END.
