What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates unstructured, ad-hoc Azure troubleshooting and architecture reviews that often miss critical security gaps, cost overruns, and misconfigurations leading to outages or compliance failures.

Core Features & Use Cases

• 5-Phase Structured Investigation: Follows a consistent workflow of context gathering, diagnosis, root-cause analysis, prioritized recommendations, and post-fix verification for all Azure workloads.
• Domain-Specific Deep Dives: Includes specialized guidance for compute (AKS, VMs, App Service), serverless (Functions, Service Bus), storage (Blob, Cosmos DB, Azure SQL), networking (VNet, Private Endpoints, App Gateway), identity (EntraID, Managed Identity, RBAC), DevOps (Azure Pipelines, ACR), and IaC (Bicep, ARM, Terraform) patterns.
• Actionable Outputs: Delivers prioritized findings with exact IaC diffs for fixes, evidence from Azure CLI outputs, and verification steps to confirm issues are resolved.
• Use Case Example: Use this Skill to audit an AKS cluster's identity configuration, diagnose EntraID login failures, or review a multi-service Azure architecture for cost and security gaps before production deployment.

Quick Start

Use the azure-specialist skill to review my Azure subscription for security and cost optimization opportunities, focusing on AKS and EntraID configurations.
