AL Development Collection

Overview

The AL Development Collection provides a complete AI-native development toolkit for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Instead of ad-hoc AI usage, you get systematic engineering through 37 Agent Primitives organized across 3 framework layers implementing the AI Native-Instructions Architecture.

Key Features

6 Role-Based Specialist Agents:

• al-architect 🏗️ (solution design), al-developer 💻 (implementation), al-debugger 🐛 (troubleshooting)
• al-tester ✅ (TDD/quality), al-api 🌐 (API development), al-copilot 🤖 (AI features)

4 Orchestra System Agents (Multi-agent TDD):

• al-conductor 🎭 (orchestration), al-planning-subagent 🔍 (research)
• al-implement-subagent 💻 (TDD implementation), al-review-subagent ✅ (validation)

9 Auto-Applied Instructions:

• Code style, naming conventions, performance patterns
• Error handling, events, testing standards
• Context-aware loading via applyTo patterns

18 Agentic Workflows:

• Environment setup (al-initialize, al-build)
• Development (al-events, al-pages, al-permissions)
• Analysis (al-diagnose, al-performance, al-migrate)
• Copilot features (al-copilot-capability, al-copilot-promptdialog, al-copilot-test)

Smart Complexity Routing (Experimental):

• 🟢 LOW → al-developer (direct implementation)
• 🟡 MEDIUM → al-conductor (TDD orchestration)
• 🔴 HIGH → al-architect → al-conductor (full design + TDD)
