Azure Compute Skill
Routes Azure VM and Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS) requests to the right workflow.
When to Use This Skill
- User wants to recommend, compare, or price a VM or VMSS
- User wants to create, provision, or deploy a VM or VMSS
- User can't connect to a VM (RDP / SSH / port refused / black screen / password reset)
- User asks about Capacity Reservation Groups (CRG) — reserve, guarantee capacity, pre-provision
- User asks about Essential Machine Management (EMM) — machine enrollment, monitor
Disambiguate with azure-prepare: if the user wants to deploy an application (Docker service, web app, API, serverless workload), route to azure-prepare. vm-creator is for bare VM/VMSS infrastructure only.
Routing
Azure compute intent?
├── Recommend / compare / price a VM or VMSS → VM Recommender
├── Create / provision / deploy a VM or VMSS → VM Creator
├── Can't connect / RDP / SSH / port refused → VM Troubleshooter
├── Reserve / guarantee capacity (CRG) → Capacity Reservation
├── Machine enrollment / Essential Machine Management → Essential Machine Management
└── Unclear → Ask which of the aboveRouting rule: read the matched workflow file before any reference file. The workflow owns the step-by-step guidance; references are looked up on demand.
Workflows
| Workflow | File | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| VM Recommender | vm-recommender.md | User asks which VM/VMSS to choose, wants pricing, or wants to compare options |
| VM Creator | vm-creator.md | User wants to provision a bare VM or VMSS (not an app deployment) |
| VM Troubleshooter | vm-troubleshooter.md | User can't connect, RDP/SSH refused, black screen, needs password reset |
| Capacity Reservation | capacity-reservation.md | User needs to reserve / guarantee VM capacity (CRG create / associate / disassociate) |
| Essential Machine Management | essential-machine-management.md | User asks about EMM / machine enrollment / monitor |

How to use this skill
Install azure-compute by running npx skills add microsoft/azure-skills --skill azure-compute 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.
No configuration needed. Your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) automatically detects installed skills and uses them as context when generating code.
The skill enhances your agent's understanding of azure-compute, 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.
