Baltic Summit 2026 was all about AI & Power Platform

Baltic Summit 2026 just wrapped up in Gdynia, Poland, and I’m still working through my notes. Three days, a packed agenda, and honestly one of the best-organized conferences I’ve attended in a while. Registration was smooth, and the tracks were easy to follow. By the end, the whole event felt well thought out from start to finish. The overall theme across sessions was clear: AI, Copilot, Power Platform solutions, governance, and security. All of it was viewed from a dozen…

Never Pay for the Same Dataverse Mistake Twice

Never Pay for the Same Dataverse Mistake Twice

GitHub Copilot showed me something new: GPT-5.6 Sol, plus a 30% discount. Yes, and I couldn’t resist trying it on a Dataverse task. Why not see the new model in action, right? As a result, that decision burned nearly a month’s budget before the task was even done. But here’s the thing: the expensive part isn’t the story worth telling. What came out of it was a GitHub Copilot custom skill – a reusable file that captures everything the agent…

One Task Table to Rule Them All

One Task Table to Rule Them All

The backlog from my last post had one line I couldn’t ignore: status transitions weren’t implemented yet. Tables, views, the model-driven app – all done. The missing piece was the Dataverse Agent Task contract itself. In other words, the part that lets Power Platform and Azure talk to each other. That wasn’t a bug. It was a missing seam. Without an explicit contract, two teams can’t build independently. They can’t test independently either. Remember my post about project decomposition? I…

GitHub Copilot Dataverse: MCP Limits, YAML, and PAC CLI

GitHub Copilot Dataverse: MCP Limits, YAML, and PAC CLI

My spec was done. The plan too. Time to build the Dataverse foundation: the piece everything in my Expense Management system would run on. I connected the Dataverse MCP server in VS Code, opened my prepared spec, and ran /speckit.implement in GitHub Copilot. The GitHub 🌱 SpecKit workflow with Copilot to implement my Dataverse solution felt ready. I expected it to just work. It didn’t. The MCP hit its limits fast. Cryptic errors, wrong solution placement, no model-driven app support….

Spec-Driven Development: Project Decomposition

Spec-Driven Development: Project Decomposition

The Dataverse-first restart was done. However, my spec looked sharper. The data model had a center of gravity, and that part actually worked. Solving one problem, however, revealed another. One spec was still covering six very different concerns: different timelines, different risk profiles, and different people who would eventually build and own each piece. Nothing defined where one concern ended and another began. That’s not a spec problem. Instead, it’s a structure problem. In my previous post, I said the…
