SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams quickly understand complex Azure deployments by discovering all resources in a resource group, mapping their configurations and dependencies, and producing a single cohesive architecture diagram and accompanying documentation so architects and engineers can reason about topology, data flows, and security boundaries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Resource Group Discovery: Enumerates resource groups when none is specified and validates existence and permissions before analysis.
  • Deep Resource Analysis: Inspects resource types, SKUs, locations, network settings, identity bindings, and key configuration properties to collect architecture-relevant details.
  • Relationship Mapping & Diagram Generation: Identifies network, identity, data flow, and dependency relationships and generates detailed Mermaid diagrams organized by layers and subgraphs.
  • Documentation Output: Produces markdown files with an inventory table, embedded Mermaid diagrams, relationship explanations, and recommendations for issues or optimizations.
  • Use Case: Use to produce an operational architecture diagram for a production resource group to support onboarding, audits, or migration planning.

Quick Start

Generate a Mermaid architecture diagram and a detailed resource inventory for resource group rg-prod-eastus.

Frequently Asked Questions about azure-resource-visualizer

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a Mermaid architecture diagram for an Azure resource group?

You can visualize Azure resource groups by applying this Skill to a specified group or prompting it to list available groups, which produces markdown files containing detailed Mermaid diagrams, labeled connections, and resource inventory tables.

Can I automatically map resource relationships across Azure subscriptions?

Yes, you can map resource relationships across Azure subscriptions by discovering resource groups, validating permissions, and identifying network, identity, and data flow dependencies to organize them into detailed architecture diagrams.

Does this approach require az-cli to inventory Azure resources?

Inventorying Azure resources and generating architecture diagrams requires access to Azure resource configurations via az-cli to inspect resource types, SKUs, locations, and network settings before mapping relationships into Mermaid syntax.

What is the best way to document Azure deployments for onboarding or audits?

The best way to document Azure deployments for onboarding or audits is to discover all resources in a resource group, map their dependencies, and produce a single cohesive markdown file with embedded Mermaid diagrams, relationship explanations, and an inventory table.

Why does the resource visualization fail to analyze certain resource groups?

Resource visualization fails to analyze certain resource groups when the Skill cannot validate resource existence or encounters insufficient permissions to inspect the required compute, network, and data configurations.
