Skill instructions
Test Agent Authentication Authenticate with the Power Platform API for evaluation and SDK chat workflows. This caches a token in the "test-agent" slot that is shared by run-eval and chat-sdk. Step 1: Find the workspace Locate the agent workspace (directory containing .mcs/conn.json): bash Glob: /agent.mcs.yml The conn.json provides the tenant ID automatically — no need to ask the user for it. Step 2: Get the client ID CRITICAL: You MUST present the FULL configuration checklist below when asking for the client ID. Do NOT omit any items — users frequently miss the redirect URI and public client settings, which causes auth failures. Ask the user for their App Registration Client ID and show them all of the following requirements in your message: What is your App Registration Client ID for the Evaluation API? Before sharing it, please verify your App Registration has all of these settings: 1. Redirect URI: Under Authentication Mobile and desktop applications redirect URI set to http://loca
