Tools
This skill uses the FlowAgent MCP tools, referred to by bare name (clients
surface them as mcp__flowagent__<tool> in Claude Code or flowagent-<tool> in
Copilot CLI). If no MCP tools are present, the plugin is not wired up — run the setup skill.
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| list_desktop_flows | Browse RPA flows (filter by name) |
| run_desktop_flow | Trigger with optional machineGroup, body, timeout |
| list_machine_groups | Browse machine infrastructure |
