Question 580
At Timberline Foods, the supply-chain systems team is implementing a vendor onboarding project under requirements for continuous approved supplier status. The team says the following incident was fixed: A custom Foundry agent must query customer cases through enterprise tools but its developer gives it broad direct database access. Which result BEST proves the intended fix is effective?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The agent lists only cases the calling user may view and direct database credentials are not present. This directly tests whether the reported failure has been corrected: A custom Foundry agent must query customer cases through enterprise tools but its developer gives it broad direct database access. The intended action was Expose narrowly scoped Microsoft Power Platform MCP server tools with authenticated authorization per operation. The observed Timberline Foods outcome is stronger evidence than a completed ticket or a saved configuration alone.
Incorrect Answers
The code app opens an authorized session, receives agent responses, and handles connection errors without DOM scraping. Such evidence would validate a different change: A code app consumes a Copilot Studio agent by scraping its web chat DOM and breaks after a client update. It follows the separate remedy Use the supported Copilot Studio client library and its documented authentication/session methods. The Timberline Foods scenario instead reports A custom Foundry agent must query customer cases through enterprise tools but its developer gives it broad direct database access. The decisive observation must be: The agent lists only cases the calling user may view and direct database credentials are not present.
Regression runs expose failures before deployment and version-to-version quality changes are measurable. Such evidence would validate a different change: An agent team declares production readiness after one demonstration without evaluating factual errors or unauthorized tool calls. It follows the separate remedy Create a representative evaluation dataset with accuracy, tool-use, access-control and refusal tests plus release thresholds. The Timberline Foods scenario instead reports A custom Foundry agent must query customer cases through enterprise tools but its developer gives it broad direct database access. The decisive observation must be: The agent lists only cases the calling user may view and direct database credentials are not present.
In tests the agent proposes an action but no payment executes until a permitted approver confirms it. Such evidence would validate a different change: A generative agent automatically approves vendor payments based on free-form text without human approval. It follows the separate remedy Require a human confirmation checkpoint and deterministic amount verification before authorizing any payment write. The Timberline Foods scenario instead reports A custom Foundry agent must query customer cases through enterprise tools but its developer gives it broad direct database access. The decisive observation must be: The agent lists only cases the calling user may view and direct database credentials are not present.
