Your AI agent just modified the wrong file. Again. Before you blame the model — when did you last check what instructions you actually gave it?
Most developers hand a powerful coding agent a vague persona and wonder why results are inconsistent. GitHub's analysis of 2,500+ repositories reveals the uncomfortable truth: the gap between agents that work and agents that guess comes down to one file you're probably not writing correctly.
In this guide: the six pillars of a high-performing agents.md, a production-ready Dataverse plugin agent template, and the maintenance habit that keeps your AI sharp as your codebase grows. Your agent is only as good as the manual you write for it.

GitHub Copilot Agentic Memory: What It Is, How It Works?
GitHub Copilot just launched a persistent, repository-scoped agentic memory system in public preview. Instead of starting from scratch every session, Copilot now learns your codebase conventions over time and shares that knowledge across the coding agent, code review, and CLI. In this article, we explore how it works under the hood — and walk through three concrete Power Platform scenarios (PCF control development, Power Automate solution management, and Dataverse architecture patterns) where this changes the daily developer experience significantly.
Power Apps MCP Server: Complete Guide to Every Feature (Public Preview 2026)
