Today, if you run botskills refresh, there is no way to handle the updated .lu files for different skills being in different places. There is only one "--luisFolder" parameter and it can't be automated since the path isn't in config.

What is the solution you are looking for?

If botskills refresh used the inlineTriggerUtterances endpoint of the skills (e.g. http://bfcalendarskill.azurewebsites.net/api/skill/manifest?inlineTriggerUtterances=true) to refresh, adding the utterances to the dispatch directly, we wouldn't have to provide the .lu file location to get the latest updates.

This would enable the update_cognitive_models.ps1 script to rebuild the .dispatch file based on the config, which would help in a distributed dev environment.

What alternatives have you considered?

Is there any other context you can provide?

I'm not sure what is needed to compile the utterances into a consumable format for the dispatch tool, but I think they can be parsed into a tabbed file as an input.

Edit: The dispatch tool can accept either a tsv file or txt file with the utterances directly in the --filePath parameter.

--filePath [Required only if type is file] Path to tsv file containing two tab delimited fields in each line representing intent and utterance or .txt file containing one utterance on each line with the file name representing intent name
