rule · Microsoft 365 Copilot: What is a skill

An agent can have at most 8 skills. Custom skills aren't available in tenants that use Microsoft Purview Information Barriers.

Compatible isn't the same as safe. These verdicts only say whether a skill's files follow Microsoft's documented load rules. The checker reads files and never runs them, and it doesn't review what a skill or its scripts actually do. Read a skill's instructions and scripts before you add it to an agent.
