Microsoft’s new Workflow Agent (Frontier) promises to turn natural language into business-grade automation. But does it actually work with real-world project data?

As an objective analyst, I put this tool through five rigorous tests—and the results were unexpected. From "gaslighting" me about its own workflow steps to hallucinating due dates and failing to respect basic status filters, the agent struggled to maintain data integrity throughout the process.

In this video, I walk you through the "Hallucination Loop" I encountered and explain why a "mostly accurate" automation can be a liability in a professional environment. I also discuss whether you should wait for updates or stick with the reliability of Power Automate for now.

Key Findings:

- Discrepancies between the User Interface and the Agent's internal logic.

- Persistent data hallucinations regarding task dates.

- The "Regression" problem: Why fixing one filter broke the rest of the workflow.

Final Verdict: Is this production-ready for M365 power users?
