SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developers working with Azure Microsoft Discovery lack consolidated, up-to-date guidance on designing shared sessions, configuring workspaces, securing deployments, and troubleshooting task failures, forcing them to hunt through scattered documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Categorized Knowledge Index: Nine categories covering troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture patterns, limits and quotas, security, configuration, integrations, and deployment, each mapped to official Microsoft Learn documentation.
  • Remote Documentation Fetching: Retrieves current Microsoft Discovery docs via mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage as a fallback, returning Markdown content.
  • Use Case: When provisioning a Discovery supercomputer via REST API or publishing a tool image to Azure Container Registry, the agent locates the exact how-to guidance and applies correct naming rules, quota limits, and network security settings.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to help configure network security for a Microsoft Discovery workspace or troubleshoot a failing Discovery Engine task using its correlation ID.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I troubleshoot Microsoft Discovery Engine task failures?

Locate the correlation ID from the Azure Activity Log for the failed task, then use it to query workspace logs with Kusto in Log Analytics. The skill links to Microsoft Learn articles covering task execution debugging and correlation ID retrieval.

How do I deploy tools to Azure Microsoft Discovery?

Create a Dockerfile to containerize the tool, publish the image to Azure Container Registry, then deploy and register it to Discovery. The skill provides links to guidance on tool definition YAML, action scripts, and ACR publishing.

Does this skill require network access to work?

Yes, it requires network access to fetch documentation. It prefers the mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch tool and falls back to fetch_webpage, both returning Markdown content from Microsoft Learn.

What security configurations does Microsoft Discovery support?

Discovery supports encryption at rest with customer-managed keys, managed identities, RBAC persona roles, network-hardened deployments, and audit logging. The skill indexes Microsoft Learn articles for each of these configuration tasks.

How do I query Microsoft Discovery logs with Kusto?

Access the Log Analytics workspace associated with your Discovery resources and run Kusto queries against operational, indexing, and activity logs. The skill links to guides for querying workspace, supercomputer, bookshelf, and CogLoop orchestration logs.
