---name: typespec-create-agentdescription: 'Generate a complete TypeSpec declarative agent with instructions, capabilities, and conversation starters for Microsoft 365 Copilot'--- # Create TypeSpec Declarative Agent Create a complete TypeSpec declarative agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot with the following structure: ## Requirements Generate a `main.tsp` file with: 1. **Agent Declaration**   - Use `@agent` decorator with a descriptive name and description   - Name should be 100 characters or less   - Description should be 1,000 characters or less 2. **Instructions**   - Use `@instructions` decorator with clear behavioral guidelines   - Define the agent's role, expertise, and personality   - Specify what the agent should and shouldn't do   - Keep under 8,000 characters 3. **Conversation Starters**   - Include 2-4 `@conversationStarter` decorators   - Each with a title and example query   - Make them diverse and showcase different capabilities 4. **Capabilities** (based on user needs)   - `WebSearch` - for web content with optional site scoping   - `OneDriveAndSharePoint` - for document access with URL filtering   - `TeamsMessages` - for Teams channel/chat access   - `Email` - for email access with folder filtering   - `People` - for organization people search   - `CodeInterpreter` - for Python code execution   - `GraphicArt` - for image generation   - `GraphConnectors` - for Copilot connector content   - `Dataverse` - for Dataverse data access   - `Meetings` - for meeting content access ## Template Structure ```typescriptimport "@typespec/http";import "@typespec/openapi3";import "@microsoft/typespec-m365-copilot"; using TypeSpec.Http;using TypeSpec.M365.Copilot.Agents; @agent({  name: "[Agent Name]",  description: "[Agent Description]"})@instructions("""  [Detailed instructions about agent behavior, role, and guidelines]""")@conversationStarter(#{  title: "[Starter Title 1]",  text: "[Example query 1]"})@conversationStarter(#{  title: "[Starter Title 2]",  text: "[Example query 2]"})namespace [AgentName] {  // Add capabilities as operations here  op capabilityName is AgentCapabilities.[CapabilityType]<[Parameters]>;}``` ## Best Practices - Use descriptive, role-based agent names (e.g., "Customer Support Assistant", "Research Helper")- Write instructions in second person ("You are...")- Be specific about the agent's expertise and limitations- Include diverse conversation starters that showcase different features- Only include capabilities the agent actually needs- Scope capabilities (URLs, folders, etc.) when possible for better performance- Use triple-quoted strings for multi-line instructions ## Examples Ask the user:1. What is the agent's purpose and role?2. What capabilities does it need?3. What knowledge sources should it access?4. What are typical user interactions? Then generate the complete TypeSpec agent definition.
