Skill instructions
Generate README Generate or update a README.md for a sample agent in the Agent365-Samples repository. Instructions 1. Detect the agent — identify the programming language, orchestrator, and whether it is interactive (message-driven) or autonomous (background service). 2. Detect authentication + identity model — determine which combination applies (see table below). 3. Generate the README using the exact template structure defined in this skill. 4. Adapt content from the existing README if one exists — preserve sample-specific details (tool names, service names, configuration keys) but restructure to match the template. README Template The README MUST contain the following sections in this exact order. Do not add, remove, or reorder sections unless noted. 1. Title + Description markdown <Sample Title — <Language Sample <1–3 sentence description of what the sample demonstrates. State whether it is interactive or autonomous, what SDK/orchestrator it uses, and what makes it a useful refere
