Azure Agent Skills

Install

/plugin marketplace add MicrosoftDocs/agent-skills
/plugin install azure-agent-skills@microsoft-agent-skills

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The Microsoft Docs team generated one skill per Azure service from Learn documentation: Functions, AKS, Cosmos DB, Key Vault, API Management, Foundry and dozens more. Each skill has a category index: troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture, limits and quotas, security, configuration, integrations and deployment. Categories link to the relevant Learn pages, and the agent fetches their content through the Microsoft Learn MCP or a plain page fetch. Skills are generated automatically and dated so the agent can suggest an update.

Who it is for. For developers and cloud architects building on Azure.

Example request

What are the Azure Functions limits on the Flex Consumption plan and how do I set up Durable Functions

Limitations

The skills need network access to learn.microsoft.com, ideally with the Microsoft Learn MCP installed. Content is a pointer index into documentation rather than standalone guides. Azure and some Microsoft services are restricted for users in Russia, and doc availability without VPN may vary. Text is CC BY 4.0, code is MIT.

How to disable. Uninstall azure-agent-skills via /plugin in Claude Code or /plugins in Codex, or delete the skill folders from the agent's directory.

Security check

• The agent fetches documentation pages from the network

README in short

The README explains the approach: Learn documentation knowledge is pre-organized by task rather than retrieved via RAG every time. It covers installing as a plugin in VS Code, Claude Code and Codex, and manually for Gemini CLI, Cursor, OpenCode and others. It includes a table of skill paths per agent, skill counts per Azure category and role-based bundles. The full catalog lives in docs/CATALOG.md.

# Azure Active Directory B2C Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Active Directory B2C. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

## How to Use This Skill

> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: Use the **Category Index** below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., `L35-L120`), use `read_file` with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., `[security.md](security.md)`), use `read_file` on the linked reference file

> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: If `metadata.generated_at` is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If `mcp_microsoftdocs` tools are not available, suggest the user install it: [Installation Guide](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/mcp/blob/main/README.md)

This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:
- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown.
- **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown.
