Robbert gave Scout, Microsoft's desktop personal agent, one instruction. It was to summarize Teams conversations across multiple tenants, list pending action items, and deal with a meeting request buried in a thread. Scout read the messages and checked both parties' calendar availability. It then scheduled the appointment and sent a Teams confirmation.

Scout asks for confirmation before significant actions by default. The desktop app is version 0.22, and automations pause when the machine sleeps.
Go through my Teams threads in [channels or tenants] from the last [time period] and list the action items assigned to me, with who asked and when. Find any buried request for a meeting with [person or topic], check both our calendars for a good slot, and show me the proposed invite. Wait for my OK before sending the invite or confirmation.
