Also supports Ignite 2025 and Build 2025 session catalogs. Uses the msevents CLI for fast local search and Learn MCP Server for docs.

shepherd-driver

Use only as the composed drive-to-merge stage of an APM batch orchestrator (batch-bug-shepherd, apm-issue-autopilot) that has already selected ONE open pull request in microsoft/apm. Do NOT use for user-facing requests to triage issues, sweep a queue, or open PRs -- the parent orchestrator owns those. Spawn one shepherd-driver subagent per PR: it classifies copilot-pull-request-reviewer[bot] inline review, runs the apm-review-panel, folds (by default) every recommendation inside the PR's stated scope, pushes to the head branch or a superseding PR that preserves authorship via commit trailers,

pr-description-skill

Use this skill to write the PR description (PR body) for any pull request opened against microsoft/apm. Produces one self-sufficient GitHub-Flavored Markdown artifact: TL;DR, Problem (WHY), Approach (WHAT), Implementation (HOW), 1-3 validated mermaid diagrams, explicit trade-offs, validation evidence, and a How-to-test section -- with every WHY-claim backed by a verbatim quote from PROSE or Agent Skills. Activate when the user asks to "write a PR description", "draft a PR body", "open a PR", "fill in the PR template", or any equivalent.

docs-impact-classifier

Use this skill to classify the documentation impact of a pull request diff, returning one of three verdicts -- no-change, in-place edit, or structural change -- with bounded LLM cost. Activate as a sibling skill of docs-sync; the orchestrator calls this first, before any panel spawn, to keep cost floor at 1 LLM call when no docs work is needed. Reads .apm/docs-index.yml as the corpus map; never reads the full corpus.

docs-corpus-audit

Use this skill to run a holistic regrounding pass on the entire microsoft/apm documentation corpus against current source code, page-by-page, and emit surgical fixes for stale claims. Activate when the maintainer wants a WHOLE-CORPUS audit (not per-PR review) -- typical triggers include "audit the docs", "reground the corpus", "check every page against code", "pre-release docs sweep", "the docs have drifted everywhere", or "we just reshaped the TOC, find dead links". Wave-batched and S7-verified; scales to the full ~112-page corpus in ~10 minutes wall-time. This is a SIBLING to docs-sync, not

apm-spec-guardian

Use this skill to run a four-panel adversarial advisory review on any pull request that touches the OpenAPM specification artifact (docs/src/content/docs/specs/openapm-*.md), its inline / sidecar JSON Schemas (docs/src/content/docs/specs/schemas/*.schema.json), or the conformance fixture seed (tests/fixtures/spec-conformance/**). The panel fans out to four spec-ecosystem reviewers (swagger-openapi-editor, oci-distribution-editor, pkgmgr-registry-contract-editor, w3c-tag-architect), each running in its own agent thread, and a spec-editor synthesizer that produces a fold-now / defer-v0.1.1 / def

agents-sdk-provision

Use when provisioning Azure resources for a Microsoft Agents SDK application — including creating an Azure Bot Service resource, setting up Entra app registrations, configuring identity credentials (UserManagedIdentity, FederatedCredentials, or ClientSecret), adding a Teams channel, running Bicep deployments for SSO, or setting up OAuth user sign-in connections via az CLI. Trigger even if the user doesn't say "provision" — use on requests like "set up my bot on Azure", "deploy my bot", "configure Azure for my bot", or "get Teams SSO working." Applies to all languages (dotnet, Node.js, Python).
