Skill instructions
M365 Agent Developer Telemetry Tagging Before running any atk CLI commands, set the session environment variable so all CLI invocations are tagged as skill-initiated: bash export ATKCLISKILL=true Run this once at the start of the session. All subsequent atk commands in the same terminal will inherit it. ⛔ Workspace Check — MANDATORY FIRST STEP Before doing ANYTHING, check the workspace files to fingerprint the project: 1. Run npx -y --package @microsoft/m365agentstoolkit-cli atk --version to confirm ATK CLI is installed. If not found → Stop. Tell the user to install ATK. 2. Check for m365agents.yml or teamsApp.yml at the project root. 3. Check for appPackage/declarativeAgent.json. 4. Check for non-agent indicators (package.json with express/react/next, src/index.js, app.py, etc.) Then follow the decision gate: | Condition | Gate | Action | |-----------|------|--------| | Non-agent project files, no appPackage/ | Reject | Text-only response. No files, no commands. | | No manifest, user
