Azure Find Package Skill
Some SDK packages in this monorepo have package-specific skills — tribal knowledge (architecture, data flows, type mappings, pitfalls) that prevents common mistakes. Before modifying any SDK package, check whether a skill exists for it using the steps below.
How to Discover Package Skills
Determine the package directory. If you already know the file path you're modifying, extract the package directory from it (e.g., a file at
sdk/search/azure-search-documents/src/main/java/com/azure/search/documents/SearchClient.javabelongs to the package atsdk/search/azure-search-documents/). If you only have a package name, search for a matching directory undersdk/(package directories are named after the Maven artifactId, e.g.,com.azure:azure-search-documents→sdk/search/azure-search-documents/).Check for a
.github/skills/directory inside the package directory. For example, check whethersdk/search/azure-search-documents/.github/skills/exists.If it exists, read every
SKILL.mdfound under that directory. If areferences/subdirectory exists next to aSKILL.md, read all files in it too for additional context.If no
.github/skills/directory exists for the package, no package-specific skill has been created yet — proceed normally.
