When to use
- Discovering which models are available: "what models can I use?"
- Checking infrastructure: "what connections are configured?"
- Finding knowledge bases: "what indexes exist for search?"
- Listing datasets for evaluation or fine-tuning
When NOT to use
- For running inference (use /v1/chat/completions)
- For creating resources (that requires Azure Portal or Bicep)
