What's included
- Agent registry and agents map across Microsoft and partner agents
- Agent onboarding, lifecycle rules, audit and logging

Common traps
- Standalone purchase needs a prerequisite licence: Microsoft 365 E5/A5/G5, Business Premium, or the Defender + Purview suites.
- Not included in M365 E3 or E5; only E7.
- Microsoft's FAQ says 'no consumption-based costs for Agent 365 yet'. The word 'yet' is worth watching.
- Licensing is recommended for every user who touches managed agents, which can be far more people than agent builders.
