Azure Cloud Migrate

This skill handles assessment and code migration of existing cloud workloads to Azure.

Rules

  1. Follow phases sequentially — do not skip
  2. Generate assessment before any code migration
  3. Load the scenario reference and follow its rules
  4. Use mcp_azure_mcp_get_azure_bestpractices and mcp_azure_mcp_documentation MCP tools
  5. Use the latest supported runtime for the target service
  6. Destructive actions require ask_userfunctions global-rules | app-service global-rules
  7. Report progress to user — During long-running operations (deployments, image pushes), provide resource-level status updates so the user is never left waiting without feedback — see workflow-details.md
  8. Audit service discovery in app code — Kubernetes DNS names (e.g., http://order-service:3001) do not resolve in Container Apps. During assessment, scan source code for hardcoded hostnames/ports in HTTP clients and flag them for env-var-driven URL injection

Migration Scenarios

Source Target Reference
AWS Lambda Azure Functions lambda-to-functions.md (assessment, code-migration)
AWS Elastic Beanstalk Azure App Service beanstalk-to-app-service.md
Heroku Azure App Service heroku-to-app-service.md
Google App Engine Azure App Service app-engine-to-app-service.md
AWS Fargate (ECS) Azure Container Apps fargate-to-container-apps.md (assessment, deployment)
Kubernetes (GKE/EKS/Self-hosted) Azure Container Apps k8s-to-container-apps.md
GCP Cloud Run Azure Container Apps cloudrun-to-container-apps.md
Spring Boot (Azure Spring Apps/VMs) Azure Container Apps spring-apps-to-aca.md

No matching scenario? Use mcp_azure_mcp_documentation and mcp_azure_mcp_get_azure_bestpractices tools.

Output Directory

All output goes to <workspace-root-basename>-azure/ at workspace root, where <workspace-root-basename> is the name of the top-level workspace directory itself (NOT a subdirectory within it). Never modify the source directory.

Steps

  1. Create <workspace-root-basename>-azure/ at workspace root
  2. Assess — Analyze source, map services, generate report using the scenario-specific assessment guide → functions assessment | app-service assessment
  3. Migrate — Convert code/config using the scenario-specific migration guide → functions code-migration | app-service code-migration
  4. Ask User — "Migration complete. Test locally or deploy to Azure?"
  5. Hand off to azure-prepare for infrastructure, testing, and deployment

Track progress in migration-status.md — see workflow-details.md.

How to use this skill

1

Install azure-cloud-migrate by running npx skills add microsoft/azure-skills --skill azure-cloud-migrate in your project directory. Run the install command above in your project directory. The skill file will be downloaded from GitHub and placed in your project.

2

No configuration needed. Your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) automatically detects installed skills and uses them as context when generating code.

3

The skill enhances your agent's understanding of azure-cloud-migrate, helping it follow established patterns, avoid common mistakes, and produce production-ready output.

What you get

Skills are plain-text instruction files — not executable code. They encode expert knowledge about frameworks, languages, or tools that your AI agent reads to improve its output. This means zero runtime overhead, no dependency conflicts, and full transparency: you can read and review every instruction before installing.

Compatibility

This skill works with any AI coding agent that supports the skills.sh format, including Claude Code (Anthropic), Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Aider, and other tools that read project-level context files. Skills are framework-agnostic at the transport level — the content inside determines which language or framework it applies to.

Data sourced from the skills.sh registry and GitHub. Install counts and security audits are updated regularly.
