copilot-studio-agents

copilot-studio-agents is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnPiyush/AgentX. It costs 80 tokens per session (1,273 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to designing Microsoft Copilot Studio conversational agents. These are chat-based assistants that answer questions, follow topics, use knowledge sources, and call connected actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build support or FAQ agents, define trigger phrases and topics, add generative answers, connect flows or services, and publish to channels such as Teams or the web.
Why use it?
It helps turn user messages into predictable conversations or agent-directed actions. It also covers authentication, communication channels, and connections to enterprise data and tools.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

copilot-studio-agents scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Copilot Studio Agents

Purpose: design a Copilot Studio agent -- topics, knowledge, actions, channels -- that packs as a Bot component in a solution. This is Tier-3 of the Power Platform stack (conversational AI over Dataverse + connectors).

Note: Copilot Studio source schema is newer and less stable than Dataverse/canvas source. pac copilot is preview; the maker portal (or solution export/import) is the primary round-trip. Treat on-disk YAML shapes below as guidance, and always verify against an actual export before packing.

When to Use

  • Building a conversational agent (support, FAQ, task automation) over Dataverse + enterprise knowledge
  • Adding topics or generative answers to an existing agent
  • Wiring an agent to actions (Power Automate flows, connectors, MCP servers) and channels (Teams, web, etc.)

Two Authoring Modes

Mode How it routes Use for
Classic topics Trigger phrases match user input to a topic; you draw the dialog tree Deterministic flows, compliance-bound paths
Generative orchestration LLM picks topics/actions/knowledge to fulfill the goal Open-ended assistants, many tools

Most production agents combine both: generative orchestration for flexibility, plus authored topics for paths that must be deterministic.

On-Disk Layout (Bot Component)

src/
  bots/<schemaname>/
    bot.yaml                  # agent metadata, default culture, settings
    topics/
      <topic>.yaml            # trigger + dialog nodes
    knowledge/
      <source>.yaml           # knowledge source binding (public URL, SharePoint, Dataverse)

The Bot is a Dataverse component (RootComponent for the bot) plus related botcomponent rows for topics/knowledge.

      activity: Your issue is currently {Topic.Status}.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
