share

? Shared Instructions: shared-instructions.md — Cross-cutting concerns. Always confirm before share/unshare.

Share / Unshare

Adds or removes user access to the app in the current directory. The CLI resolves emails via Microsoft Graph; entries that don't resolve are returned as warnings (the RP call still succeeds for the resolved entries).

Workflow

1. Memory Bank → 2. Verify Project + Env → 3. Mode (share / unshare) → 4. Collect Emails → 5. Confirm → 6. Run → 7. Surface Partial-Success Envelope

---

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Read memory-bank.md for app slug, GUID, and environment.

Step 2: Verify Project + Env

test -f ms.config.json || { echo "Not in a Microsoft App workspace."; exit 1; }
BIN=ms
$BIN auth status                                         # must report the expected UPN

Step 3: Mode

Ask whether the user wants to share (add access) or unshare (remove access). Default to share unless the prompt obviously indicates removal.

Step 4: Collect Emails

Accept a comma-separated email list. Validate basic shape (user@domain) before passing through; don't try to resolve them yourself — ms handles Graph resolution and will return warnings for unresolved entries.

If the user passes Object GUIDs (already-resolved principals), pass them through as-is — the CLI accepts both forms.

Step 5: Confirm

Show the user exactly what will run, then ask for confirmation:

"About to share <app-name> with: alice@contoso.com, bob@contoso.com. Confirm?"

Wait for explicit yes. Never auto-proceed — ACL changes affect production users.

Step 6: Run

Share:

$BIN app share "alice@contoso.com,bob@contoso.com"

Unshare:

$BIN app unshare "alice@contoso.com,bob@contoso.com"

The command reads the app ID from ms.config.json.

Step 7: Surface Partial-Success Envelope

The CLI returns a JSON envelope with partialFailure: boolean and warnings: []. When partialFailure: true:

• The RP call succeeded — share state is updated for resolved users.
• Warnings list the unresolved entries (typo'd email, account doesn't exist in the tenant, Graph couldn't find them, etc.).

Print warnings verbatim and ask the user whether to re-run with corrected entries:

Share completed with warnings:
  - 'bob@contso.com' could not be resolved (Graph returned 404).
  - 'charlie@partner.com' is not a member of this tenant.

Share state updated for: alice@contoso.com (1 of 3 resolved).

Would you like to retry the 2 unresolved entries with corrections?

If the user confirms, loop back to Step 4 with the corrected list. Don't retry automatically — typos and tenant-membership issues need human resolution.

Edge Cases

Situation	Action
User passes a single email	Run as-is; the envelope still applies (just with one entry).
User passes a mix of emails and Object GUIDs	Pass through as one comma-separated list — the CLI accepts both.
ms app share returns non-zero (not a partial-failure envelope)	A hard error (auth, env, app-not-found). Surface verbatim and STOP. Do not retry.
User says "share with everyone"	Decline — there is no "everyone" semantic. Ask for an explicit list.
