CLI Agents Part 4: Practical Use Continuing the series on AI agents in the terminal, I want to move on to more realistic, practical examples. The goal of this article is to show that working with AI agents can be simple and approachable. I will demonstrate this through solving real task for Business Central in Microsoft repository.

Parallel Worker for Business Central
I would like to present Parallel Worker, an open-source library for running parallel tasks in pure AL. It offers a unified interface, reliable execution, and, of course, is freely available to anyone who wants to use it. Today, I will explain how I built this library and how it can be useful for developers.

CLI Agents Part 3: Business Central MCP Server
In the previous posts in the CLI Agents series, we discussed the evolution of AI tools, the advantages of CLI agents, and the basic best practices for Claude, how to manage the context window properly, what MCP is, why subagents matter, and so on. Today, I propose that we look at how to configure and use the Business Central MCP server through Claude Code. We will also talk about possible usage scenarios.

CLI Agents Part 2: Claude Code Best Practices
In the first part, we explored why CLI agents are the future of AI-assisted coding. Now it's time to get practical. This article covers what actually makes Claude Code effective: proper configuration, context management, permission modes, subagents, custom commands, and MCP integration. This information is useful not only for Business Central developers, but for virtually any specialist in any domain.

Before it was only one way to show Rich content (html) or PDF in BC. I also saw the grant diagrams embedded in BC.
Right now, I'm also working on an extension that dynamically sets styles for Lines in List/Subform pages. It's something like StyleExpr, but with dynamic configuration and no need to create Page Extensions.
There is also one open-source extension, where AddIn make possible to Drag & Drop files directly on area of factbox to import it

SharePoint Graph API for Business Central
I would like to discuss working with the SharePoint API and explain why I decided to contribute a Graph API implementation to Business Central alongside the existing classic SharePoint REST API implementation. We will then look at practical examples of using the new SharePoint Graph API interfaces and legacy REST API interfaces.

How to support open-source
Today I would like to talk about the kind of support open-source projects receive from the community and how important this is for their development. Using my own experience as an example, I will show which tools an open-source project can use to gain additional support from the community.

@Sc00Fi I haven't gotten around to analyzing this Business Central MCP yet, thanks for clarifying. In that case, it will be easier to create your own MCP -)
CLI Agents: The New Standard of AI Coding
In this article, we will explore how AI assistance for coding has evolved. We will look at chat interfaces, autocomplete, IDE agents, and of course CLI agents. We will also discuss why MCP is useful and what it actually is. Using the CLI agent Claude Code as an example, we will explore how to use AI effectively for coding

Data Editor Tool on AppSource and Volodver LLC
I would like to share some news: the Data Editor Tool is now available on Microsoft AppSource, completely free and still open source. I am also announcing the launch of Volodver LLC, a company dedicated to building and publishing a range of extensions and applications for Business Central.

Can AI Code AL? Testing LLMs on a Real Task for Data Editor
In this post, I propose to examine how good LLMs are for AL coding on real tasks. As an example, I will use a real task for the Data Editor that I have been putting off for quite a long time. For comparison, I selected the most powerful and popular models: Claude 4 Sonnet, GPT-5 High, Grok 4, and Gemini 2.5 Pro.

Mastering High-Performance Reports in BC
Creating high-performance reports is an essential skill for any Business Central developer. Iโm sure many of you have run into slow reports, but what if I told you theyโre slow mainly because of poor design? Today, I outline a set of techniques and tips that will help developers build truly high-performance reports.

@wjpkgab@TheDoubleH Your solution is quite workable. But actually it can be sent as a bug to Microsoft. This should be fixed by Microsoft in Base Application, for example they can remove Caption property for this field on Customer Card.
