Agent-Skills azure-container-storage

Expert knowledge for Azure Container Storage development including troubleshooting, decision making, limits & quotas, security, and configuration. Use when configuring CMK-encrypted Elastic SAN volumes, ACS pools, LRS/ZRS redundancy, volume resize, or v1 installs, and other Azure Container Storage related development tasks. Not for Azure Blob Storage (use azure-blob-storage), Azure Files (use azure-files), Azure Elastic SAN (use azure-elastic-san), Azure NetApp Files (use azure-netapp-files).

Azure Container Storage Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Container Storage. Covers troubleshooting, decision making, limits & quotas, security, and configuration. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

How to Use This Skill

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 file

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

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

  • Preferred: Use 
    mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch
    with query string 
    from=learn-agent-skill
    . Returns Markdown.
  • Fallback: Use 
    fetch_webpage
    with query string 
    from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown
    . Returns Markdown.
