AI Agents in PowerShell: Turning GitHub CLI Into an Autonomous Workflow Engine

About this event

AI Agents in PowerShell: How Tiny Functions Become Autonomous Workflows
Everyone talks about AI agents. Nobody shows them doing real work.
In this session, we’ll build a practical agentic workflow in PowerShell using nothing more than a handful of lightweight functions and the GitHub CLI.

You’ll see how a single PowerShell function becomes an agent “tool,” and how chaining a few of them turns into a complete autonomous workflow.

Create an issue, assign Copilot… all from one natural-language prompt.

What we’ll cover:

  • How to expose PowerShell functions as agent-callable tools
  • Wiring the GitHub CLI into an AI workflow (issues, PRs, logs)
  • Letting the agent decide which tool to call, with what parameters
  • Building a hands-off workflow: create → assign → analyze → iterate
  • Tips for extending the pattern into your own automation stack

Live demos include:

  • A full end-to-end agent workflow in the terminal
  • Auto-assigning Copilot to issues from a prompt
  • Gathering PRs and issue lists into agent-driven actions

This isn’t a slide deck.
It’s a live look at PowerShell acting as an agent tool registry and GitHub turning into your automation fabric.

If you’ve been curious about building real agentic systems—or just want to see what’s possible with a few lines of PowerShell—this session will open your eyes.

Come hang out, ask questions, and steal the pattern.
