ATK · Agent plugins

When you talk to Copilot Chat with the wiqd plugin loaded, the ATK extension’s workflow shows up as the “ATK tasks” routing entry. Saying any of the trigger phrases below lifts the right ATK command into the conversation, with Work IQ Dev Tools shelling out behind the scenes.

The ATK workflow covers the Build stage of the agent journey, from “empty folder” to “shareable, published agent”:

  • Scaffold — create a new agent from a template.
  • Edit — modify instructions, capabilities, actions, plugins, or auth configuration on an existing agent.
  • Validate — fast static checks and deep semantic checks before deploying.
  • Provision — push the agent into an environment (local, staging, prod).
  • Package — build the deployable .zip you share with a teammate or distribute.
  • Share / collaborate — give a teammate access, manage co-owners.
  • Publish — promote the agent to the org-wide catalog.
  • Delete / open / show — inspect and tear down cloud resources.
  • Migrate / localize — keep older agents on the current schema and translate to other locales.

Saying any of these in Copilot Chat routes the orchestrator into the ATK workflow:

create agent · new agent · scaffold agent · edit my agent · update my agent · modify my agent · add a capability · add a plugin · provision my agent · deploy my agent · package my agent · share my agent · delete my agent · remove my agent · open my agent · show my agent · show my environments · manage environments · add environment · migrate my agent · localize my agent · validate my agent · fix my agent manifest · update instructions · add web search · update manifest · review instructions

ATK is stage 1 of 4 in the wiqd agent journey — the Build stage. Once a project exists on disk and a manifest is structurally valid, the orchestrator hands off to the Eval extension for the Improve stage and to the Work IQ extension for the Preview stage.
