# flow-studio-power-automate Connects Claude Code to Power Automate cloud flows via Flow Studio MCP. Helps inspect action payloads, loop iterations, and nested failures directly. - plugin · `type=plugin` · Claude Code · ★ 34 - Author: ninihen1 - License: MIT · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/ninihen1/power-automate-mcp-skills - Updated: 2026-09-04 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/plugins/flow-studio-power-automate ## What it does Graph API only shows top-level run status. Action payloads, child flow errors, and loop steps remain hidden. This plugin bridges that gap via Flow Studio MCP: Claude Code gets direct access to input and output bodies, matching what developers see inside the Power Automate portal. The plugin groups capabilities into five functional skills. The modules `power-automate-mcp`, `power-automate-debug`, and `power-automate-build` call live APIs to inspect, diagnose, and scaffold cloud flows. Monitoring and governance tools query a daily cached snapshot of tenant data instead. Accessing the cached store requires a FlowStudio for Teams or MCP Pro+ subscription, and connecting the MCP server requires an API token from `mcp.flowstudio.app`. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) **Plugin marketplace** In the agent chat (not a shell): ```text /plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community ``` In the agent chat (not a shell): ```text /plugin install flow-studio-power-automate@claude-community ``` ## When to use it - inspect action-level inputs and outputs behind a failed cloud flow run - scan hundreds of loop iterations for corrupted data without clicking through portal runs - generate and deploy new Power Automate flow definitions from Claude Code - audit connectors and identify orphaned cloud flows across the tenant ## Example prompts - Check the latest failed run of `ProcessInvoices` and inspect the input payload of the failing action - Scan all iterations of the main loop and find which ones produced empty outputs - Scaffold a new Power Automate cloud flow definition to send notifications when an item is created ## Source text · SKILL.md · MIT Below is the content of a third-party file.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE a903dbc81fde92a3 ```text # FlowStudio MCP — Power Automate Skills for AI Agents Give your AI agent the same visibility you have in the Power Automate portal — plus a bit more. The Graph API only returns top-level run status — agents can't see action inputs, loop iterations, or nested failures. FlowStudio MCP exposes all of it. ![Agent debugging a Power Automate flow via MCP](assets/demo-debug.gif) **You can click through the portal and find the root cause. Your agent can't — unless it has MCP.** ![The portal shows everything to a human — but agents only see the top-level error via Graph API](assets/portal-vs-reality.png) ![With FlowStudio MCP, the agent sees what you see](assets/mcp-root-cause.png) ## When you need this - Your agent can see that a flow failed, but not why — Graph API only returns status codes - You want your agent to see action-level inputs and outputs, like you can in the portal - A loop has hundreds of iterations and some produced bad output — in the portal you'd click through each one, but the agent can scan all iteration inputs and outputs at once - You want to check flow health, failure rates, and maker activity across your tenant without opening the admin center - You need to classify flows, detect orphaned resources, or audit connectors at scale — without installing the CoE Starter Kit - You're tired of being the middle-man between your agent and the portal ## Graph API vs FlowStudio MCP The core difference: **Graph API gives your agent run status. MCP gives your agent the inputs and outputs of every action.** | What the agent sees | Graph API | FlowStudio MCP | | --------------------------------------------- | --------- | --------------- | | Run passed or failed | Yes | Yes | | **Action inputs and outputs** | **No** | **Yes** | | Error details beyond status code | No | Yes | | Child flow run details | No | Yes | | Loop iteration data | No | Yes | | Flow definition (read + write) | Limited | Full JSON | | Resubmit / cancel runs | Limited | Yes | | **Cached flow health & failure rates** | **No** | **Yes** | | **Maker / Power Apps / connection inventory** | **No** | **Yes** | | **Governance metadata (tags, impact, owner)** | **No** | **Yes** | ## Skills | Skill | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [`power-automate-mcp`](skills/power-automate-mcp/) | Connect to and operate Power Automate cloud flows — list flows, read definitions, check runs, resubmit, cancel | | [`power-automate-debug`](skills/power-automate-debug/) | Step-by-step diagnostic process for investigating failing flows | | [`power-automate-build`](skills/power-automate-build/) | Build, scaffold, and deploy Power Automate flow definitions from scratch | | [`power-automate-monitoring`](skills/power-automate-monitoring/) | Flow health, failure rates, maker inventory, Power Apps, environment and connection counts | | [`power-automate-governance`](skills/power-automate-governance/) | Classify flows by impact, detect orphans, audit connectors, manage notifications, compute archive scores | The first three skills use **live** Power Automate API calls. The monitoring and governance skills use the **cached store** — a daily snapshot with aggregated stats, remediation hints, and governance metadata. Requires a FlowStudio for Teams or MCP Pro+ subscription for store tools. ``` END THIRD-PARTY FILE a903dbc81fde92a3 The third-party file has ended.
