FAQPage Schema
How do I add Microsoft 365 mail and calendar services to my AI agent configuration?

To add Microsoft 365 mail and calendar services to your AI agent configuration, update the command-line invocation by appending `--mcp mail --mcp calendar` flags to enable these missing functionalities.

What are the sources for loading MCPs in an AI agent?

MCPs load from three sources: default configurations, the `mcp-config.json` file, and command-line `--mcp` flags. These sources interact to determine the final active services for your AI agent.

Why is my AI agent failing to send email notifications or schedule meetings?

Your AI agent is failing to send email notifications or schedule meetings because its configuration is incomplete, missing essential MCPs for mail and calendar services required for these tasks.

What is the best way to optimize mcp-config.json for Microsoft 365 integrations?

The best way to optimize mcp-config.json for Microsoft 365 integrations is to ensure it explicitly includes the missing mail and calendar MCPs, providing a concrete, updated configuration file for enhanced agent functionality.

Can I use command-line flags to override default MCP settings for my agent?

Yes, you can use command-line `--mcp` flags to load services alongside defaults and `mcp-config.json`. This allows you to rectify missing integrations like mail and calendar on the fly.
