What it is, and how people use it
Desktop app that records your on-screen work session and uses the GitHub Copilot CLI to reconstruct it as an intent + ordered steps, then builds a reusable Skill or Automation for Microsoft Scout, Microsoft Copilot Cowork, or Copilot Stu… It sits on the Agent Skills shelf of the catalog, maintained by @microsoft.
Why builders keep it installedAgent Skills benefits
A skill packages the exact steps, file conventions and checklists an expert would follow. The model spends its context on your feature instead of figuring out how the tool works.
Commit the skill to your project and every teammate's Claude Code, Codex or Cursor run inherits the same quality bar - including the new teammate on day one.
Tuned instructions cut failed attempts and half-baked output. Fewer retries means fewer tokens burned and noticeably shorter sessions on paid model plans.
Skills are plain markdown and scripts the community versions together. A model upgrade changes behaviour, not your workflow - unlike a bespoke prompt that breaks silently.
