    A365 Setup · microsoft
    Entry point for general Agent 365 (A365) registration and CLI setup — use this skill whenever the user wants to "set up A365", "register agent", "create blueprint", or general A365 onboarding for non-AI-Teammate agents (Register, Observability paths). Verifies and installs the CLI, validates Azure prerequisites, then delegates to make-a365-agent or make-ai-teammate at Step 3. Does NOT run a365 setup all inline — setup is run by the delegated skill. Supports .NET AgentFramework, Node.js LangChain, and Python agents.

  22. ▌
    Test Local · microsoft
    Runs an Agent 365 AI Teammate agent locally and opens AgentsPlayground for interactive local testing. Works with any AI Teammate stack — .NET (AgentFramework, Semantic Kernel), Node.js (LangChain, OpenAI, Claude SDK, Semantic Kernel, Google ADK), or Python (AgentFramework, LangChain, OpenAI, Claude, Semantic Kernel, Google ADK). Checks prerequisites (agentsplayground CLI, build tools), builds the agent, starts it in the background, and launches the playground UI pointed at the local endpoint. AgentsPlayground connects to /api/messages over HTTP — the LLM framework does not matter.

    Make A365 Agent · microsoft
    Provisions a non-AI Teammate agent with Agent 365 — use this skill for Register and Observability paths. Runs a365 setup all to create the Blueprint and Entra ID permissions. After setup, always offers instrument-observability (optional) and add-workiq-tools (optional, skipped automatically when authMode = s2s) as add-ons. Supports .NET AgentFramework, Node.js, and Python agents. Normally delegated to from a365-setup after CLI and Azure prerequisites are confirmed. Can also be invoked directly when those steps are already done.

  24. ▌
    Add Workiq Tools · microsoft bundle
    Adds WorkIQ MCP tool servers to an existing .NET AgentFramework, Node.js, or Python agent using the A365 CLI. Runs a365 develop list-available to show the catalog, adds selected servers via a365 develop add-mcp-servers (which writes ToolingManifest.json), wires McpToolRegistrationService in the agent code, and guides the user through the permissions handoff. Non-destructive and idempotent.

  25. ▌
    Make AI Teammate · microsoft bundle
    Transforms a non-M365 agent into a Microsoft Agent 365 AI Teammate. Supports all major frameworks across .NET (AgentFramework, Semantic Kernel), Node.js (LangChain, OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude SDK, Semantic Kernel, Google ADK), and Python (AgentFramework, LangChain, OpenAI, Claude, Semantic Kernel, Google ADK). Adds the hosting layer (Express/CloudAdapter for Node.js, ASP.NET Core for .NET, aiohttp for Python), AgentApplication class with message routing and typing indicators, email notifications, and all required packages and env vars. Wraps existing LLM code — does not replace it. Requires a365-setup to have been run first.
    2.7k repo stars
  26. ▌
    A365 Code Validator · microsoft bundle
    Validates and optionally fixes Agent 365 observability code so an agent actually emits MAC Activity telemetry. Use when an Agent 365 agent's telemetry isn't reaching MAC Activity or Defender, when spans export (HTTP 200 / "sent") but Activity stays empty, when the caller or agent id looks wrong in reporting, or to pre-flight whether an agent will emit MAC Activity before shipping. Diagnoses and fixes existing instrumentation; do NOT use it to add observability from scratch — use instrument-observability for that. Checks exporter activation, runtime agent-identity binding (vs blueprint id), the S2S FMI / OBO token shape, S2S vs OBO endpoint selection, the required semantic spans (invoke_agent/chat/execute_tool/output_messages), Activity attributes, and live blueprint grants and inheritance through read-only a365 Microsoft Graph diagnostics. Read-only by default; asks before applying safe fixes. Python, Node.js, and .NET.

  27. ▌
    Instrument Observability · microsoft bundle
    Instruments Microsoft Agent 365 observability into existing .NET AgentFramework, Node.js, or Python agents. Adds OTel-based tracing, context propagation, A365 exporter, manual instrumentation scopes (InvokeAgentScope, InferenceScope, ExecuteToolScope — required for store publishing), and updates configuration files. Asks a two-stage question — agent kind (AI Teammate or Agent (Non AI Teammate)) and auth mode — to determine the correct token path: OBO (`obo` / `agentic-user`) or Service Principal (`s2s`) (FMI 3-hop token chain with Power Platform scope supported for .NET, Node.js, and Python — each language gets a scaffold token-service file that acquires and refreshes the Observability API token via the FMI chain). Non-destructive and idempotent.
