Skill Activation Triggers
Activate this skill when user wants to:
- Check Azure compliance or best practices
- Assess Azure resources for configuration issues
- Run azqr or Azure Quick Review
- Identify orphaned or misconfigured resources
- Review Azure security posture
- "Show me expired certificates/keys/secrets in my Key Vault"

| Assessment | Reference |
|---|---|
| Comprehensive Compliance (azqr) | references/azure-quick-review.md |
| Key Vault Expiration | references/azure-keyvault-expiration-audit.md |
| Resource Graph Queries | references/azure-resource-graph.md |
MCP Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
mcp_azure_mcp_extension_azqr | Run azqr compliance scans |
mcp_azure_mcp_subscription_list | List available subscriptions |
mcp_azure_mcp_group_list | List resource groups |
keyvault_key_list | List all keys in vault |
keyvault_key_get | Get key details including expiration |
keyvault_secret_list | List all secrets in vault |
keyvault_secret_get | Get secret details including expiration |
keyvault_certificate_list | List all certificates in vault |
keyvault_certificate_get | Get certificate details including expiration |
Assessment Workflow
- Select scope (subscription or resource group) for Comprehensive Resources Assessment.
- Run azqr and capture output artifacts.
- Analyze Scan Results and summarize findings and recommendations.
- Review Key Vault Expiration Monitoring output for keys, secrets, and certificates.
- Classify issues and propose remediation or fix steps for each finding.
Priority Classification
| Priority | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Critical | Immediate remediation required for high-impact exposure |
| High | Resolve within days to reduce risk |
| Medium | Plan a resolution in the next sprint |
| Low | Track and fix during regular maintenance |
Error Handling
| Error | Message | Remediation |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication required | "Please login" | Run az login and retry |
| Access denied | "Forbidden" | Confirm permissions and fix role assignments |
| Missing resource | "Not found" | Verify subscription and resource group selection |
Best Practices
- Run compliance scans on a regular schedule (weekly or monthly)
- Track findings over time and verify remediation effectiveness
- Separate compliance reporting from remediation execution
- Keep Key Vault expiration policies documented and enforced
