Users can now create agentic workflows by submitting a GitHub issue form with just a name and description. Mirrors the existing campaign creation mechanism.

Changes

  • Issue template (.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/create-workflow.yml)

    • Form fields: workflow name, description, optional context
    • Auto-labels: workflow, automation
    • Title prefix: [Workflow]
  • Coordinator workflow (.github/workflows/workflow-generator.md)

    • Triggers on [Workflow] prefix
    • Uses update-issue to set status and append agent instructions
    • Uses assign-to-agent to delegate to Copilot agent
    • Agent follows .github/agents/create-agentic-workflow.agent.md to generate complete workflow spec and create PR

Flow

Issue created → workflow-generator detects → updates issue status → assigns to agent → agent generates workflow → PR created → user reviews/merges

The agent generates appropriate triggers, tools, permissions, safe outputs, and security settings based on the user's description.

Original prompt

Add issue template to add a new agentic workflow similar to what we do for campaigns. should just take a name and a description as input and generate the full md from it with triggers, safe output, etc., assign to agent and ask it to compile. stick to the same mecahnism as for compain issue submission.


💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Learn more Copilot coding agent tips in the docs.
