Skill instructions
Validate Agent YAML Validate Copilot Studio agent YAML files using the LanguageServerHost binary's full diagnostics — the same validation engine used by the VS Code Copilot Studio extension. Instructions 1. Locate the agent workspace. Find the directory containing .mcs/conn.json. If a specific file was requested, use the workspace that contains it. 2. Run LSP-based validation: bash node ${CLAUDESKILLDIR}/../../scripts/manage-agent.bundle.js validate \ --workspace "<path-to-agent-folder" \ --tenant-id "<tenantId" \ --environment-id "<envId" \ --environment-url "<envUrl" \ --agent-mgmt-url "<mgmtUrl" This validates all .mcs.yml files in the workspace using the LSP binary's full diagnostics: YAML structure, Power Fx expressions, schema validation, cross-file references, and environment-specific checks.
