BC Serena Setup — VS Code Extension

Adds the bc-serena-setup Copilot agent skill to any project with a single command, so the agent can set up a Serena MCP project for a Business Central version without you doing anything manually.

What it does

Running the command BC Serena: Add Setup Skill to Project (via the Command Palette) copies two files into your workspace:

.github/
  skills/
    bc-serena-setup/
      SKILL.md                          ← skill definition the agent reads
      scripts/
        setup-bc-serena-project.ps1     ← PowerShell automation the agent invokes

After that, simply ask the Copilot agent:

"Set up Serena for BC w1-27"

and it will pick up the skill and run the full setup.

Getting started

1. Build

cd vscode-extension/bc-serena-setup
npm install
npm run compile

2. Run / Debug

Open vscode-extension/bc-serena-setup/ in VS Code and press F5 — this launches an Extension Development Host with the extension loaded.

3. Use the command

1. Open any workspace/project folder.
2. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
3. Run BC Serena: Add Setup Skill to Project.
4. The skill files are written to .github/skills/bc-serena-setup/.
5. Ask the Copilot agent to set up Serena for the BC version you need.

4. Package (optional)

npm install -g @vscode/vsce
vsce package

This produces a bc-serena-setup-0.1.0.vsix you can share or install with:

code --install-extension bc-serena-setup-0.1.0.vsix

Keeping the skill up to date

The skill files (SKILL.md and setup-bc-serena-project.ps1) are bundled inside the extension under resources/skills/bc-serena-setup/. To update them, replace those files and bump the version in package.json.
