mcp-based agents

This tag covers mcp-based agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, with current attention on Microsoft’s planned rollout to government cloud environments. A Microsoft 365 roadmap item targets July 2026 general availability for agent widgets in GCC, GCC High, and DoD clouds across desktop and web. The feature is described as delivering rich, interactive UI widgets through Copilot Chat. Coverage also emphasizes the administrative work around the change: reviewing approved Copilot agents, confirming ownership of agents and tool connections, and deciding which widget-enabled experiences should be available to users. Government-cloud administrators are the primary audience for this update.
