Skill instructions
Copilot Studio Workflow Overview - Copilot Studio agents are YAML-first assets (.mcs.yml) that sync between a local repo and the cloud. - Treat the development/demo environment as the real working environment and the production environment as a packaged distribution target. - Keep generic placeholder URLs in git (for example contoso.sharepoint.com); real demo URLs belong only in the live environment. - Follow the proven loop: pull → revert env-specific files → edit → push → publish → test → commit. Prerequisites & First-Time Setup When starting work on a Copilot Studio project for the first time, verify the following tools are installed and configured. Run .\scripts\cps-status.ps1 for a quick health check. Required | Tool | Purpose | Install | |---|---|---| | Git | Source control for agent YAML files | git-scm.com | | VS Code | Editor for YAML and local development | code.visualstudio.com | | Copilot Studio VS Code Extension | Pull/push agent YAML between local files and cloud environm
