name: teams-app-developer description: > Build, test, and deploy code-based Teams apps using the M365 Agents Toolkit CLI. USE FOR: Custom Engine Agents (CEA), Teams bots, tabs, message extensions, Agents Playground local testing, Azure provision/deploy, Slack-to-Teams migration, cross-platform bot development, Block Kit to Adaptive Cards conversion, AI model integration (OpenAI/Azure/Anthropic/Bedrock). DO NOT USE FOR: declarative agents — use the `declarative-agent-developer` skill instead. Triggers: "build a teams bot", "custom engine agent", "CEA", "teams agent", "tab app", "message extension", "test with agents playground", "provision to azure", "deploy to azure", "migrate slack bot", "slack to teams", "convert block kit", "add azure openai to my bot"

Teams App Developer Skill

Build code-based Microsoft 365 agents and Teams apps (CEA, bot, tab, message extension) using the ATK CLI.

Declarative Agents (DA): Use the declarative-agent-developer skill — it owns all DA workflows including scaffolding, manifest editing, capability config, API/MCP plugins, OAuth, localization, and deployment. This skill covers code-based project types only.

AI Behavior Guidelines

Testing Strategy: Recommend Agents Playground first (faster, no M365 needed). Use Teams workflow only if user explicitly requests it.
Environment Variables: NEVER hardcode secrets or make up placeholder values. Always ask users for real values.
Error Handling: Read error messages carefully. Check env/.env.local, .localConfigs, and atk auth list. Common pitfalls:
- AADSTS7000229 → aadApp/create missing generateServicePrincipal: true in YAML — add it and re-provision
- Missing TENANT_ID in .localConfigs → SDK uses wrong token authority → 401 from Bot Connector
- 401 persists after auth fix → devtunnel URL may be blacklisted — create a fresh tunnel
- See troubleshoot/troubleshoot.md for full diagnostic steps
Long-Running Commands — WAIT for completion:
- atk new, atk provision, atk deploy can take several minutes
- Always wait for completion before running the next step (timeout 120000ms+)
Local Service Startup — Hangs terminal (expected):
- npm run dev, npm start, python app.py, devtunnel host, etc. will hang — the process keeps running indefinitely
- ALWAYS run as a background process (isBackground=true) — NEVER use isBackground=false for these commands
- Do NOT wait for it to "finish" — verify startup by checking output for "listening on port" or tunnel URL
- If errors appear, read logs, diagnose, fix, restart
- Use a NEW terminal to launch Agents Playground or open Teams sideloading URL
Monitor App Logs: Periodically check background terminal output for runtime errors. If the app crashes, read the error, fix the root cause, and restart.
Telemetry Tagging: Before running any atk CLI commands, set the session environment variable so all CLI invocations are tagged as skill-initiated:
```
export ATK_CLI_SKILL=true
```
Run this once at the start of the session. All subsequent atk commands in the same terminal will inherit it.

ATK CLI Setup

Before any ATK commands, verify the CLI is available:

atk --version  # Must be > 1.1.5-beta

If ATK is not found or the version is too old → use the install-atk skill to install or update it, then return here to continue.

CLI Global Options

Option	Meaning	Recommendation
`-i`	Interactive mode	Always use `-i false` in automation to avoid hanging
`-f`	Project folder	Default to be current directory, used when specifying a custom folder. When scaffolding a new project, this is the parent folder where the project folder will be created under.
`-h`	Command help	Use `atk <command> -h` for quick syntax checks

Sub-Skills

Sub-Skill	When to Use	Reference
create-project	Scaffold new project from template, choose template, `atk new`	create-project/create-project.md
test-playground	Test locally with Agents Playground, `agentsplayground`, quick testing	test-playground/test-playground.md
test-teams	Run on Teams, devtunnel, sideload, Teams testing, test in Copilot	test-teams/test-teams.md
provision-deploy	Provision Azure resources, deploy to cloud, `atk provision`, `atk deploy`	provision-deploy/provision-deploy.md
troubleshoot	Fix errors, 401, port conflicts, YAML errors, stale bots	troubleshoot/troubleshoot.md
slack-to-teams	Migrate Slack bot to Teams, cross-platform bridging, Block Kit to Adaptive Cards	slack-to-teams/SKILL.md

MANDATORY: Before executing any workflow, read the corresponding sub-skill document.

Workflow Chains

Match user intent to the smallest valid workflow.

User Intent	Workflow (read in order)
Build new CEA/bot/tab/ME from scratch	create-project → test-playground
Test existing project locally	test-playground (recommended) or test-teams
Deploy to Azure	provision-deploy
Fix broken bot	troubleshoot → re-test
Migrate Slack bot to Teams	slack-to-teams
Create Declarative Agent	Use `declarative-agent-developer` skill

MANDATORY: Before executing any slack-to-teams workflow, read slack-to-teams/SKILL.md first. The sub-skill contains a routed expert system with 100+ micro-expert files for cross-platform bot development.
