- ui-tests-migrationCreate, migrate, and stabilize PowerToys UI tests with Microsoft.PowerToys.UITest.Next and winappcli, through local VM success, commit/push, and CI validation. Use for ports, new UITest projects, flaky CI tests, persistent Hyper-V validation, Settings IPC authentication/test signing, Explorer/Shell selection, preview handlers, thumbnail providers, hotkey activation, stateful process lifecycle, composed WinUI/WebView visual baselines, or foreground failures. Covers APIs, scaffolding, test design, diagnostics, and the required handoff to ui-tests-pipeline-ci. Keywords: UI test, UITests, UITestAutomation.Next, winappcli, WinAppDriver, Selenium, Settings IPC, not-microsoft-signed, Authenticode, local VM, Hyper-V, checkpoint, migrate, flaky, CI stability, Explorer, Shell extension, WebView2.
- powertoys-verificationVerify PowerToys behavior end-to-end with the winapp CLI across two scenarios: (A) a module's release checklist against the installed build; (B) PR validation — derive each PR's checklist from its description + diff, then drive it against the installed build (a merged/shipped PR, or a whole release/hotfix set) or by building + sideloading the module when the PR isn't in the build yet (unmerged or not-yet-released). Drive each item via UIA invoke / Named Events / settings.json edits / clipboard / GPO / SendInput, and emit a structured PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED verdict per item with evidence (FAIL distinguishes product defects from stale/ambiguous checklist items). Use when asked to verify a module checklist, validate a PR, sign off a release/hotfix's PRs, or QA installed/sideloaded PowerToys bits. Combines generic winapp ui mechanics (references/winapp-ui-testing.md) with PT-specific recipes, per-scenario playbooks (references/scenarios/), and the helper .ps1 files shipped with this skill.
- ui-tests-pipeline-ciMicrosoft FTE-only completion workflow for PowerToys UI-test implementation: automatically continue after successful local VM suites, commit and push scoped changes, queue CI, wait synchronously, and stabilize through Azure CLI and Azure DevOps REST APIs. No separate push/run-CI request is needed for create, migrate, or stabilize tasks unless the user limited scope. Also use for explicit UITests CI, setup preflight, 401/403 diagnosis, build reuse, recordings/artifacts, and the three-run limit. Keywords: FTE, az, Azure CLI, Azure DevOps, pipeline, UI Test Automation, UITests CI, commit, push, local-to-CI handoff, buildNow, specificBuildId, uiTestModules, CI flake.
- ui-tests-local-vmRun PowerToys UITest.Next suites in persistent Hyper-V VMs over PowerShell Direct. Validate full default and constrained suites on Windows 10 and Windows 11, plus applicable ARM64 guests, then automatically hand implementation tasks to ui-tests-pipeline-ci for commit/push and CI validation. Local green is not end-to-end completion. Use for agentic UI-test iteration, reusable standard-user desktops, payload staging, evidence export, VM customization, clean baselines, or hosts without nested virtualization. Keywords: Hyper-V, local VM, virtual machine, PowerShell Direct, Copy-VMFile, VMBus, checkpoint, unattend, autounattend, ISO, Windows 10 LTSC, Windows 11, ARM64, Windows on ARM, UI tests, UITest.Next, winappcli, TRX, CI handoff.
- release-note-generationToolkit for generating PowerToys stable or preview release notes from GitHub milestones, commit ranges, or Azure DevOps release-candidate builds. Use when asked to create release notes, summarize milestone PRs, generate changelog, prepare a draft preview release, calculate PR deltas across main and stable, update release documentation, manage PR milestones, or prepare and validate release assets.
- wpf-to-winui3-migrationGuide for migrating PowerToys modules from WPF to WinUI 3 (Windows App SDK). Use when asked to migrate WPF code, convert WPF XAML to WinUI, replace System.Windows namespaces with Microsoft.UI.Xaml, update Dispatcher to DispatcherQueue, replace DynamicResource with ThemeResource, migrate imaging APIs from System.Windows.Media.Imaging to Windows.Graphics.Imaging, convert WPF Window to WinUI Window, migrate .resx to .resw resources, migrate custom Observable/RelayCommand to CommunityToolkit.Mvvm source generators, handle WPF-UI (Lepo) to WinUI native control migration, or fix installer/build pipeline issues after migration. Keywords: WPF, WinUI, WinUI3, migration, porting, convert, namespace, XAML, Dispatcher, DispatcherQueue, imaging, BitmapImage, Window, ContentDialog, ThemeResource, DynamicResource, ResourceLoader, resw, resx, CommunityToolkit, ObservableProperty, WPF-UI, SizeToContent, AppWindow, SoftwareBitmap.
