flowstudio-power-automate-mcp
Foundation skill for Power Automate via FlowStudio MCP — auth setup, the reusable MCP helper (Python + Node.js), tool discovery via `list_skills` / `tool_search`, and oversized-response handling. Load this skill first when connecting an agent to Power Automate. For specialized workflows, load `flowstudio-power-automate-build`, `flowstudio-power-automate-debug`, `flowstudio-power-automate-monitoring` (Pro+), or `flowstudio-power-automate-governance` (Pro+) — each contains the workflow narrative, this skill provides the plumbing they all rely on.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.

# Power Automate via FlowStudio MCP — Foundation This skill is the **plumbing layer**. It gives an AI agent a reliable way to talk to a FlowStudio MCP server, discover what tools are available, and handle the responses cleanly. The actual workflow narratives live in four specialized skills that all build on this one. > **Real debugging examples**: [Expression error in child flow](https://github.com/ninihen1/power-automate-mcp-skills/blob/main/examples/fix-expression-error.md) | > [Data entry, not a flow bug](https://github.com/ninihen1/power-automate-mcp-skills/blob/main/examples/data-not-flow.md) | > [Null value crashes child flow](https://github.com/ninihen1/power-automate-mcp-skills/blob/main/examples/null-child-flow.md) > **Requires:** A [FlowStudio](https://mcp.flowstudio.app) MCP subscription (or > compatible Power Automate MCP server). You will need: > - MCP endpoint: `https://mcp.flowstudio.app/mcp` (same for all subscribers) > - API key / JWT token (`x-api-key` header — NOT Bearer) > - Power Platform environment name (e.g. `Default-<tenant-guid>`) --- ## Which Skill to Use When Skills are organized by **use-case intent**, not by which tools they call.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill flowstudio-power-automate-mcp --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
