Notes from the trenches of real projects. What worked, what didn't, and why — no marketing spin.
Child agents, connected agents, A2A, MCP, and the new skills: which of them exist in which harness, why, and how I decide before a single agent gets built.
A practitioner's reference for Power Platform core, Copilot Studio, Dataverse, Dynamics 365 Contact Center, and Dynamics 365 Customer Service.
Explore how the Visual Studio Code AI Toolkit Extension Pack enables seamless development of intelligent, agentic applications from local prototyping to cloud deployment with Microsoft Foundry. This article provides a technical deep dive into model selection, agent orchestration, MCP tool integration, evaluation pipelines, and runtime tracing, complete with YAML-to-code examples in Python and C#.
High-volume inbound channels — emails, chats, and calls — drain service and sales teams when most queries are routine. A multi-agent system in Microsoft Copilot Studio can autonomously handle product lookups, quote generation, troubleshooting, and recruiting guidance, escalating only the exceptions to human reps. This article shows you how to architect, deploy, and govern specialized agents that integrate with Dynamics 365 Customer Service and Sales, cutting response times and freeing your teams for high-value work.
Explore how Microsoft Copilot Studio's multi-agent orchestration enables specialized agents to collaborate across systems using embedded agents, connected agents, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Learn architectural trade-offs, governance implications, and practical implementation patterns to scale your agent ecosystem effectively.
Learn how to leverage Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect AI agents with Dynamics 365 Sales for automated lead prioritization, improving sales efficiency, and pipeline quality.
Unlock the power of specialized AI models in Microsoft Copilot Studio with a omplete Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) guide! Connect GPT-4.5, Llama, or your fine-tuned models directly into agents—no coding required. From setup to governance, learn how to build domain-specific, compliant AI solutions in just 10-15 minutes.
Learn how to connect the Outlook Model Context Protocol (MCP) server with Microsoft Copilot Studio agents to enable intelligent, email-driven automation workflows without writing code. This article covers configuration steps, available email operations, and a complete example of an autonomous agent handling order status inquiries.
