• agent-handoff

  Pass context cleanly between Copilot agents (e.g. analyst agent -> comms agent). Use whenever a deliverable spans more than one specialist agent or persona. Triggers: "hand off to", switching agents, multi-agent pipeline, agent A -> agent B.

• brand-consistency

  Apply your organization's brand - colors, typography, logo, and tone - consistently across Copilot-generated deliverables in Word, PowerPoint, Teams, and Viva. Use when polishing a deck, document, or post so it looks on-brand and accessible.

• cite-your-sources

  Every factual claim in a Copilot-assisted deliverable links to a file, message, URL, or named source the reader can open. Use whenever you produce research, analysis, recaps, or any document that informs a decision. Triggers: any quoted number, named individual, "per the…", "according to…", Copilot summaries.

• clarify-the-ask

  Restate the request, surface assumptions, and confirm the deliverable before you open Copilot. Use when a request is vague, secondhand, urgent-but-fuzzy, arrives in chat as a one-liner, or any time "make me a..." appears without an audience or decision attached. Triggers: "quick favor", "just summarize", "can you draft", forwarded email with no framing.

• connector-builder

  Phased workflow for building a high-quality connector or MCP server that lets Copilot act on an external system (an internal API, a line-of-business app, a SaaS tool).

• context-gathering

  Pull the right files, threads, and people into the Cowork session before drafting. Use whenever the deliverable depends on prior work that lives scattered across email, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, or Loop. Triggers: before any non-trivial draft; "Copilot doesn't know about…"; when context lives in 3+ places.

  Produce a one-page decision memo: context, options, recommendation, risks, ask. Use when you need a leader to make or ratify a decision asynchronously. Triggers: "draft a decision memo", "we need a one-pager for X", async approval, exec ratification.
