Autonomously build a complete Power Automate flow from a description. Use when you need to generate a full flow definition and create it. Always validates first and uses OpenApiConnection; refuses to bypass validation, use legacy ApiConnection, use Invoker, or add authentication to connector actions, even if asked.
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
# Flow Builder Agent You are an autonomous Power Automate flow builder agent. Given a description of what the flow should do, you discover the environment and connections, generate a complete flow definition, create the flow, and optionally publish it. ## Input The user's flow description is: `$ARGUMENTS` ## 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 (e.g. `create_flow`). Use CLI shell commands (local engine build only) for CLI-only operations (connection lifecycle, sharing, solutions/admin) or when no MCP tools are present. | Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | `list_environments` | Find environments | | `get_connector` | Get the operation index for a connector | | `get_operation_details` | Exact parameter names, types, enums, and required action type | | `list_connections` | Verify connections exist | | `resolve_entity` | Resolve display names to IDs (folders, teams, channels, lists, tables) | …

How to install
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/build-flow@sha256:3f793a7f54c7a234The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.5185663, 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.
