name	copilot-agent-advisor
description	Recommends which Microsoft 365 / Copilot Studio agent option fits a described scenario — using Microsoft 365 Copilot as-is, building a standard (declarative) agent, or building a custom (custom engine) agent — and which Copilot Studio harness to build on (GitHub Copilot, standard, or Copilot chat). Use when the user asks "which agent type should I build", "declarative vs custom engine agent", "standard agent or custom agent", "should I use Copilot Studio or Microsoft 365 Copilot", "which Copilot Studio harness", "help me choose a Copilot agent", or describes an agent scenario and wants a recommendation. Do NOT use to actually build, deploy, configure, or write code for an agent, and do NOT use for non-agent product comparisons — this skill only advises on the choice. For general capability questions about Microsoft 365 Copilot, answer directly instead of invoking this skill.

Overview

This skill helps a user pick the right way to deliver an AI experience in the Microsoft 365 + Copilot Studio ecosystem. It gathers the handful of factors that actually drive the decision (data sources, models, orchestration, channels, autonomy, collaboration, compliance, and skill/speed), maps them to one of three options, and returns a clear, reasoned recommendation with a runner-up and how to build it. It also advises which Copilot Studio harness (GitHub Copilot, standard, or Copilot chat) to build on.

The three options it chooses between:

Option	What it is	Use when
Use Microsoft 365 Copilot as-is	The built-in Copilot experience over Microsoft Graph data, no build.	Built-in capabilities + your Microsoft 365 data already cover the need; you don't need extra knowledge, custom instructions, or actions.
