1---2name: azure-copilot3description: Expert knowledge for Azure Copilot development including troubleshooting, decision making, architecture & design patterns, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. Use when sizing VMs, generating Bicep/Terraform, configuring Cosmos DB storage, or debugging App Service/VM disks, and other Azure Copilot related development tasks. Not for Azure AI services (use microsoft-foundry-tools), Azure Machine Learning (use azure-machine-learning), Azure AI Search (use azure-cognitive-search), Azure AI Bot Service (use azure-bot-service).4---5# Azure Copilot Skill67This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Copilot. Covers troubleshooting, decision making, architecture & design patterns, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.89## How to Use This Skill1011> **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 file1213> **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)1415This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:16- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown.17- **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown.1819## Category Index2021| Category | Lines | Description |22|----------|-------|-------------|23| Troubleshooting | L34-L39 | Using Copilot to diagnose and resolve Azure App Service/Functions issues and analyze Azure VM disk performance problems, including slow I/O and bottlenecks. |24| Decision Making | L40-L48 | Using Copilot to compare options and make cost‑efficient Azure decisions: VM sizing, workload templates, Marketplace offers, storage estate insights, and Load Balancer SKU selection. |25| Architecture & Design Patterns | L49-L53 | Using Copilot to design, validate, and troubleshoot Azure network architectures, including connectivity, routing, security, and performance issues across VNets and hybrid setups. |26| Security | L54-L62 | Security and access control for Azure Copilot: storage hardening, user/tenant access, agent access policies, attack surface insights, and responsible AI/data use. |27| Configuration | L63-L67 | How to set up and configure Azure Cosmos DB as the storage backend for Azure Copilot conversation data, including required settings and integration steps. |28| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L68-L75 | Using Azure Copilot to generate and refine infra-as-code and automation: APIM policies, Azure CLI/PowerShell scripts, Kubernetes YAML for AKS, and Terraform/Bicep templates. |2930### Troubleshooting31| Topic | URL |32|-------|-----|33| Troubleshoot Azure App Service and Functions with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/troubleshoot-app-service |34| Troubleshoot Azure VM disk performance using Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/troubleshoot-disk-performance |3536### Decision Making37| Topic | URL |38|-------|-----|39| Use Azure Copilot to analyze and optimize cloud costs | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/analyze-cost-management |40| Choose and deploy cost-efficient Azure VMs with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/deploy-vms-effectively |41| Find and deploy workload templates using Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/deploy-workload-templates |42| Find suitable Azure Marketplace solutions with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/discover-marketplace |43| Select and manage Azure Load Balancer SKUs with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/work-load-balancer |4445### Architecture & Design Patterns46| Topic | URL |47|-------|-----|48| Design and troubleshoot Azure networks with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/copilot-networking |4950### Security51| Topic | URL |52|-------|-----|53| Improve and migrate Azure storage accounts with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/improve-storage-accounts |54| Manage user access and authorization for Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/manage-access |55| Control tenant access to Azure Copilot agents preview | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/manage-agents-preview |56| Query Defender EASM attack surface insights with Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/query-attack-surface |57| Understand responsible AI and data use in Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/responsible-ai-faq |5859### Configuration60| Topic | URL |61|-------|-----|62| Configure Cosmos DB storage for Azure Copilot conversations | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/bring-your-own-storage |6364### Integrations & Coding Patterns65| Topic | URL |66|-------|-----|67| Author Azure API Management policies using Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/author-api-management-policies |68| Generate and customize Azure CLI scripts with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/generate-cli-scripts |69| Generate Kubernetes YAML for AKS with Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/generate-kubernetes-yaml |70| Generate and customize PowerShell scripts with Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/generate-powershell-scripts |71| Create Terraform and Bicep configurations with Azure Copilot | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/copilot/generate-terraform-bicep |
