Mirrors the CLI PR renaming the verb ms app add connector -> ms app add data-source (and remove connector -> remove data-source). Docs-only.

Changes

  • Switched canonical command text to ms app add data-source everywhere (the --connector <api-id> flag is retained).
  • Renamed the skill/slash-command /add-connector -> /add-data-source (folder, frontmatter, heading) and updated all delegating wrapper skills (/add-dataverse, /add-sharepoint, etc.), the connector decision guide, and the README / AGENTS / QUICKSTART / agent references.
  • Added a note that ms app add connector still works but is deprecated — prefer data-source.

Out of scope (not currently in the plugin docs): the remove flag rename --data-source-name -> --name and the hiding of ms app refresh.

Mirror CLI PR renaming the verb 'ms app add connector' -> 'ms app add
data-source' (connector kept as a deprecated alias; --connector <api-id>
flag retained). Rename the /add-connector skill to /add-data-source and
update all delegating wrapper skills and docs (including the connector
decision guide). Note the connector form is deprecated.

Address PR review: the '/list-connectors' line was false. 'ms connector
list' shows available connectors and whether each is allowed or blocked by
org policy (verified against CLI ListConnectors.ts Policy Status column).
Correct the connector decision guide line and document the policy-status
view in the list-connectors skill.
