BF force-link-environment
Force-links a development or target environment to a Power Platform Pipelines host, overriding any existing association with a previous host. Use when creating a deploymentenvironments record fails with "this environment is already associated with another pipelines host", or when intentionally migrating an environment from one host to another (e.g., Platform Host → Custom Host, or between two Custom Hosts). Calls the documented `ManageEnvironmentStamp` Dataverse action (the API behind the "Force Link" button in the Deployment Pipeline Configuration app). DESTRUCTIVE to the previous host: makers lose access to any pipelines in that host that used this environment. Reversible by running Force Link from the previous host. Use when asked to: "force link environment", "force-link to new host", "switch pipelines host", "environment already associated with another host", "take over pipelines association", "relink environment to host".

What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.
Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
