Azure Compute Skill

Routes Azure VM requests to the appropriate workflow based on user intent.

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when the user:

• Asks about Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) or VM Scale Sets (VMSS)
• Asks about choosing a VM, VM sizing, pricing, or cost estimates
• Needs a workload-based recommendation for scenarios like database, GPU, deep learning, HPC, web tier, or dev/test
• Mentions VM families, autoscale, load balancing, or Flexible versus Uniform orchestration
• Wants to troubleshoot Azure VM connectivity issues such as unreachable VMs, RDP/SSH failures, black screens, NSG/firewall issues, or credential resets
• Asks about Capacity Reservation Groups (CRGs), reserving VM capacity, associating/disassociating VMs with a CRG, or guaranteeing compute capacity
• Asks about Essential Machine Management (EMM), machine enrollment, onboarding VMs for monitoring/security, or enabling machine management at subscription level
• Uses prompts like "Help me choose a VM"

Routing

User intent?
├─ Recommend / choose / compare / price a VM or VMSS
│  └─ Route to [VM Recommender](workflows/vm-recommender/vm-recommender.md)
│
├─ Can't connect / RDP / SSH / troubleshoot a VM
│  └─ Route to [VM Troubleshooter](workflows/vm-troubleshooter/vm-troubleshooter.md)
│
├─ Capacity reservation / CRG / reserve capacity / associate VM with CRG
│  └─ Route to [Capacity Reservation](workflows/capacity-reservation/capacity-reservation.md)
│
├─ Essential Machine Management / EMM / machine enrollment
│  └─ Route to [Essential Machine Management](workflows/essential-machine-management/essential-machine-management.md)
│
└─ Unclear
   └─ Ask: "Are you looking for a VM recommendation, troubleshooting a connectivity issue, managing capacity reservations, or enabling Essential Machine Management?"

Routing rule: Always read the matched workflow file before accessing any reference files. The workflow file contains the step-by-step guidance and the reference routing table for the user's request.
