Recommend Azure VM sizes, scale sets, and configurations based on workload type, performance needs, and budget. \n \n Analyzes workload requirements (web, database, ML, batch, HPC) and recommends appropriate VM families, sizes, and instance counts without requiring an Azure subscription \n Supports both single VMs and VM Scale Sets (VMSS) with guidance on autoscaling, load balancing, and orchestration modes (Flexible vs Uniform) \n Queries the unauthenticated Azure Retail Prices API to provide c

Fast discovery and inventory of Azure resources across subscriptions using Resource Graph queries. \n \n Queries any Azure resource type (VMs, storage accounts, web apps, container apps, Key Vaults, etc.) across subscriptions and resource groups using KQL \n Identifies orphaned resources, missing tags, and resources in specific states without needing dedicated MCP tools \n Routes single-resource-type queries to specialized MCP tools (compute, storage, cosmos, acr, aks) when available; falls back

Analyze Azure resource groups and generate detailed Mermaid diagrams visualizing resource relationships and architecture. \n \n Discovers all resources within a resource group and maps their interdependencies, including network connections, data flows, identity bindings, and configuration references \n Generates layered Mermaid diagrams with logical grouping by function (Network, Compute, Data, Security, Monitoring) and includes SKU, tier, and configuration details in node labels \n Creates comp

Query and analyze massive datasets in Azure Data Explorer using KQL for logs, telemetry, and time series data. \n \n Execute KQL queries against billions of records with sub-second performance; discover clusters, databases, and table schemas \n Supports five core query patterns: basic retrieval, aggregation analysis, time series analytics, multi-table joins, and schema exploration \n Includes 4 MCP tools (cluster list, database list, query execution, table schema) with Azure CLI fallback for tim

Execute Azure deployments for applications with validated infrastructure and deployment plans. \n \n Requires .azure/plan.md with Validated status from azure-validate and prior completion of azure-prepare; will not proceed without both prerequisites \n Executes azd up , azd deploy , terraform apply , and az deployment commands with built-in error recovery and post-deployment verification \n Includes pre-deploy checklist validation, recipe-based deployment workflows, and post-deployment configura

Access Azure AI Search, Speech, OpenAI, and Document Intelligence services through unified MCP tools. \n \n AI Search supports full-text, vector, hybrid, and semantic search with built-in AI enrichment for entity extraction and OCR \n Speech service handles real-time and batch speech-to-text transcription, text-to-speech synthesis with neural voices, and speaker diarization \n MCP tools provide direct commands for listing search indexes, querying indexes, transcribing audio, and synthesizing spe

Check and manage Azure quotas and usage across regions for deployment planning and capacity validation. \n \n Azure CLI ( az quota ) is the only reliable method for checking quotas; REST API and Portal are unreliable and show misleading \"No Limit\" values that do not indicate unlimited capacity \n Supports quota discovery, usage tracking, limit checking, and increase requests across compute, network, storage, and container services \n Quota resource names do not map 1:1 to ARM resource types; u

Pre-deployment validation for Azure infrastructure, configuration, and permissions before deploying. \n \n Runs recipe-specific validation commands (azd provision, bicep build, terraform validate) and records proof in .azure/plan.md \n Requires .azure/plan.md from azure-prepare skill as input; blocks deployment if plan is missing or status is not Approved \n Validates azure.yaml, Bicep templates, Terraform configurations, Azure Functions, and app readiness across multiple deployment scenarios \n

This skill handles assessment and automated upgrades of existing Azure workloads from one Azure service, hosting plan, or SKU to another — all within Azure. This includes plan/tier upgrades (e.g. Consumption → Flex Consumption), cross-service migrations (e.g. App Service → Container Apps), and SKU changes. This is NOT for cross-cloud migration — use azure-cloud-migrate for that.
