Desktop Flow Manager
Manage Power Automate Desktop (RPA) flows, machine groups, and run sessions.
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 MCP tools aren't available, run /setup to wire the FlowAgent
MCP server.
| 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 |

Adds Work IQ (M365 Copilot Search) to a Power Apps code app via the Work IQ Copilot MCP connector (shared_a365copilotchatmcp), then wires up a production-ready McpSession wrapper for AI-powered, knowledge-grounded search and chat. Use when integrating Microsoft 365 Copilot search/chat. The CopilotChat tool searches internal Microsoft 365 content (documents, emails, chats, sites, files) across your organization — prefer workload-specific tools (SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, Mail) when the workload is explicit; do not use it for general knowledge, news, public web, or external information.
