Skill instructions
Manage Agent Push and pull Copilot Studio agent content by calling the VS Code extension's LanguageServerHost binary directly, using the same custom LSP protocol the extension uses internally. IMPORTANT: Do Not Modify Scripts This is a new capability under active development. The manage-agent scripts (manage-agent.bundle.js, chat-with-agent.bundle.js) are pre-built bundles that must not be modified, patched, or monkey-patched. If a script fails: 1. Report the error as-is — show the user the full error output 2. Do not attempt to fix, patch, or work around script errors — the scripts interact with the LSP binary using a specific protocol and any modifications will break things 3. Direct the user to raise an issue at https://github.com/microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio/issues with the error output 4. Suggest using the VS Code extension directly — the user can perform the same push/pull/clone operations from the Copilot Studio VS Code extension UI as a fallback Prerequisites 1. Copilot
