Build agentic solutions on Microsoft Foundry, GitHub and Azure: hosted agents, toolbox tools and skills, Foundry IQ grounding and a React/FastAPI app. Three modes: rapid prototyping in an existing Foundry project; spec-driven development (SDD), where the foundry-agentic-loop-workflow runs Specify, Implement, Verify and Deploy to create the Foundry project and deploy with azd, or one phase runs alone; and Improve, which refines this skill and the workflow from past runs. Use for Agentic Loop…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Foundry Agentic Loop Coordinate the solution and use `microsoft-foundry` for platform operations. Explicit user choices override defaults. Reuse known context, ask only for missing decisions, read only the references a step needs, and report decisions, blockers and endpoints concisely. ## Bootstrap (once per session) 1. **Foundry skill.** If `microsoft-foundry` is unavailable, ask, then install it (`copilot plugin install azure@awesome-copilot`, or `gh skill install microsoft/azure-skills microsoft-foundry --agent github-copilot --scope project`) and reload skills. 2. **Canvas and workflow.** This plugin ships `foundry-agentic-loop-canvas` and `foundry-agentic-loop-workflow`, listed as `foundry-agentic-loop:<name>` or `<name>`.

If one is disabled, tell the user to re-enable it in their extension settings and… …

mdr add github/awesome-copilot/foundry-agentic-loop@sha256:cd256d90b53f3b06The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.63e8ed9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
