🤖 AI-Generated Preliminary Analysis:

You are correct—the .m365agentsplayground.yml (or any similarly named config file for Microsoft 365 Agents Playground) is not currently auto-generated in projects created via the Visual Studio 2022 extension or CLI. This file is referenced in the docs, but as of the latest toolkit releases, its generation/usage is not standard in either Visual Studio or VS Code.

Actionable steps:

• You don’t need to worry about the missing file—your Agent can still be debugged and tested with the built-in Playground integration.
• If you need to manually set paths for Agents Playground, do so via Visual Studio: Tools > Options > Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit > Microsoft 365 Agents Playground.
• The documentation is outdated on this file; Microsoft is expected to update it soon (see known issues).

If you face specific debugging errors, please share your environment details and error messages for further help.
