Configure Azure API Management (APIM) as AI Gateway to secure, observe, control AI models, MCP servers, agents. Helps with rate limiting, semantic caching, content safety, load balancing.

Comprehensive Azure compliance and security auditing capabilities including best practices assessment, Key Vault expiration monitoring, and resource configuration validation.

Recommend Azure VM sizes, VM Scale Sets (VMSS), and configurations based on workload requirements, performance needs, and budget constraints.

Identify and quantify cost savings across Azure subscriptions by analyzing actual costs, utilization metrics, and generating actionable optimization recommendations.

Execute deployment to Azure. Final step after preparation and validation. Runs azd up, azd deploy, or infrastructure provisioning commands.

Debug and troubleshoot production issues on Azure. Covers Container Apps and Function Apps diagnostics, log analysis with KQL, health checks, and common issue resolution.

Build and deploy GitHub Copilot SDK apps to Azure.

Query and analyze data in Azure Data Explorer (Kusto/ADX) using KQL for log analytics, telemetry, and time series analysis.

Troubleshoot and resolve issues with Azure Messaging SDKs for Event Hubs and Service Bus. Covers connection failures, authentication errors, message processing issues, and SDK configuration problems.

Azure Observability Services including Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Log Analytics, Alerts, and Workbooks. Provides metrics, APM, distributed tracing, KQL queries, and interactive reports.

Default entry point for Azure application development. Analyzes your project and prepares it for Azure deployment by generating infrastructure code (Bicep/Terraform), azure.yaml, and Dockerfiles.

Helps users find the right Azure RBAC role for an identity with least privilege access, then generate CLI commands and Bicep code to assign it.

List, find, and show Azure resources. Answers queries like "list my VMs", "show my storage accounts", "find container apps", and similar queries for any Azure resource type.

Analyze Azure resource groups and generate detailed Mermaid architecture diagrams showing the relationships between individual resources.

Azure Storage Services including Blob Storage, File Shares, Queue Storage, Table Storage, and Data Lake. Provides object storage, SMB file shares, async messaging, NoSQL key-value, and big data analytics capabilities.

Pre-deployment validation for Azure readiness. Run deep checks on configuration, infrastructure (Bicep or Terraform), permissions, and prerequisites before deploying.

Guides Microsoft Entra ID app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and MSAL integration.

Use this skill to work with Microsoft Foundry (Azure AI Foundry): deploy AI models, manage hosted agent and prompt agent, manage RBAC permissions and role assignments, manage quotas and capacity, create Foundry resources.
