Skills for Copilot Studio is a plugin for authoring, testing, and troubleshooting standard Microsoft Copilot Studio agents as YAML files from a terminal or editor. It is intended for users of Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, and VS Code who work with Copilot Studio agents. The catalogue add-ons are the plugin's skills, agents, hook, and plugin definition.
Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studionpx agentmods add skills/microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio/run-tests-kitWrote this? Show the measurements
A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00063 | $0.01854 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.00927 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00371 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00185 |
Grade A, and why
run-tests-kit 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 8d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Run Tests via Copilot Studio Kit
Run a batch test suite against a published Copilot Studio agent using the Power CAT Copilot Studio Kit.
Prerequisites
The user must have:
- The Copilot Studio Kit installed in their Power Platform environment
- Published their agent in the Copilot Studio UI
- Created a test set in the Copilot Studio Kit
- An Azure App Registration with Dataverse permissions
Phase 1: Configure Settings
-
Read
tests/settings.json(relative to the user's project CWD) and check for missing or placeholder values (containingYOUR_). -
If the file doesn't exist, create it from the template:
cp ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../tests/settings-example.json ./tests/settings.json -
If values are missing, ask the user for each missing value. Explain where to find each one:
- Environment URL (
dataverse.environmentUrl): "What is your Dataverse environment URL? Find it in Power Platform admin center or Copilot Studio > Settings > Session Details. It looks likehttps://orgXXXXXX.crm.dynamics.com" - Tenant ID (
dataverse.tenantId): "What is your Azure tenant ID? Find it in Azure Portal > Microsoft Entra ID > Overview. It's a GUID likec87f36f7-fc65-453c-9019-0d724f21bc42" - Client ID (
dataverse.clientId): "What is your App Registration client ID? Find it in Azure Portal > App Registrations > your app > Application (client) ID. It's a GUID." - Agent Configuration ID (
testRun.agentConfigurationId): "What is your agent configuration ID? In Copilot Studio, go to your agent > Tests tab. The ID is a GUID found in the URL or test configuration." - Test Set ID (
testRun.agentTestSetId): "What is your test set ID? In Copilot Studio, go to your agent > Tests tab > select your test set. The ID is a GUID found in the URL."
Ask for ALL missing values at once (don't ask one at a time).

What this file has done since we first saw it
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.

run-tests-kit is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio (432 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 1,854 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
