What the Pipeline Agent does
If your company runs on Microsoft 365, this agent lives where the files already are. It applies your approved changes to the pipeline sheet with conflict-safe, auditable updates: current stage, proposed stage, evidence and approval status on every row.
Pipelines rot quietly. Stages drift, the sheet says interviewing for someone who signed elsewhere last week, and the Monday pipeline review becomes archaeology.
Where the three files go in Microsoft Copilot
With Microsoft 365 Copilot, create a Notebook, add skill.md as a reference and the setup prompt as the custom instructions, then run the setup and approve the sample-data test. With consumer Copilot, upload skill.md at the start of each session instead.
What a run looks like on Microsoft Copilot
A run looks like this: you open the Notebook, paste the usage prompt with this run's inputs, and Copilot works through candidate-pipeline against the referenced files. The output - it applies your approved changes to the pipeline sheet with conflict-safe, auditable updates: current stage, proposed stage, evidence and approval status on every row - comes back for your review before anything is used.
Setup, step by step
- Create a Copilot Notebook and name it after the job (for example: candidate pipeline).
- Add
skill.mdas a reference andsetup-prompt.txtas the custom instructions. - Run the setup; the agent runs
candidate-pipelineon fictional sample data first - approve that test before real work. - Start each real run in the Notebook with
usage-prompt.txtand this run's inputs. On consumer Copilot (no Notebooks), upload skill.md at the start of each session instead.
Honest limits on Microsoft Copilot
Notebooks need a work or school Microsoft 365 Copilot license. In consumer Copilot, treat each session as fresh: re-attach the files and re-paste the usage prompt.
