Guided Flow Creation Wizard

Walk the user through creating a Power Automate flow step by step.

Tools

This skill uses the FlowAgent MCP tools. Clients surface them with a client-specific prefix — mcp__flowagent__<tool> (Claude Code) or flowagent-<tool> (Copilot CLI) — so they're referred to by bare name below. If MCP tools aren't available, run /setup to wire the FlowAgent MCP server.

Steps

1. Gather requirements: Ask what the flow should do. Identify triggers, actions, connectors.

2. Select environment: Call list_environments (use query to filter). Let user pick or auto-select.

3. Check for templates: Call list_templates. If a template matches (approval, digest, webhook, etc.), offer to use scaffold_flow as a starting point.

4. Discover connectors: For each connector, call get_connector with query to find the operation, then get_operation_details for exact parameters. Never guess parameter names or types.

5. Verify connections: Call list_connections filtered by each connector. Confirm Connected status.

6. Resolve dynamic values: For params with dynamicValues/dynamicTree annotations, call invoke_operation to get actual values (Teams channels, SharePoint sites, etc.).

7. Review with user: Present the flow design. Use AskUserQuestion to confirm trigger, actions, and connections before creating.

8. Generate definition: Build following all rules:

   • Always declare $authentication (SecureObject) and $connections (Object) parameters
   • Use correct action type: OpenApiConnection or OpenApiConnectionWebhook (from get_operation_details)
   • Do NOT include authentication in action inputs
   • Use Embedded source in connection references
   • HTTP Request triggers require Premium; prefer Button kind

9. Validate: Call validate_flow (and optionally preflight_flow) to pre-check. For expressions, look up syntax with get_expression_help.

10. Create: Call create_flow in Stopped state. Report ID and name.

11. Optionally publish: Ask if user wants to enable. If yes, call publish_flow. For later one-off tweaks, use edit_flow (surgical) rather than resending the whole definition.
