Azure Compute Skill

Routes Azure VM requests to the appropriate workflow based on user intent.

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when the user:

Asks about Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) or VM Scale Sets (VMSS)
Asks about choosing a VM, VM sizing, pricing, or cost estimates
Needs a workload-based recommendation for scenarios like database, GPU, deep learning, HPC, web tier, or dev/test
Mentions VM families, autoscale, load balancing, or Flexible versus Uniform orchestration
Wants to troubleshoot Azure VM connectivity issues such as unreachable VMs, RDP/SSH failures, black screens, NSG/firewall issues, or credential resets
Asks about Capacity Reservation Groups (CRGs), reserving VM capacity, associating/disassociating VMs with a CRG, or guaranteeing compute capacity
Asks about Essential Machine Management (EMM), machine enrollment, onboarding VMs for monitoring/security, or enabling machine management at subscription level
Uses prompts like "Help me choose a VM"

Routing

User intent?
├─ Recommend / choose / compare / price a VM or VMSS
│  └─ Route to [VM Recommender](workflows/vm-recommender/vm-recommender.md)
│
├─ Can't connect / RDP / SSH / troubleshoot a VM
│  └─ Route to [VM Troubleshooter](workflows/vm-troubleshooter/vm-troubleshooter.md)
│
├─ Capacity reservation / CRG / reserve capacity / associate VM with CRG
│  └─ Route to [Capacity Reservation](workflows/capacity-reservation/capacity-reservation.md)
│
├─ Essential Machine Management / EMM / machine enrollment
│  └─ Route to [Essential Machine Management](workflows/essential-machine-management/essential-machine-management.md)
│
└─ Unclear
   └─ Ask: "Are you looking for a VM recommendation, troubleshooting a connectivity issue, managing capacity reservations, or enabling Essential Machine Management?"

Signal	Workflow
"recommend VM", "which VM", "VM size", "VM pricing", "VMSS", "scale set"	VM Recommender
"can't connect", "RDP", "SSH", "NSG blocking", "reset password", "black screen"	VM Troubleshooter
"capacity reservation", "CRG", "reserve capacity", "guarantee capacity", "associate VM with CRG"	Capacity Reservation
"essential machine management", "EMM", "machine enrollment"	Essential Machine Management

Routing rule: Always read the matched workflow file before accessing any reference files. The workflow file contains the step-by-step guidance and the reference routing table for the user's request.

Workflows

Workflow	Purpose	References
VM Recommender	Recommend VM sizes, VMSS, pricing using public APIs/docs	vm-families, retail-prices-api, vmss-guide, vm-quotas
VM Troubleshooter	Diagnose and resolve VM connectivity failures (RDP/SSH)	cannot-connect-to-vm
Capacity Reservation	Create and manage Capacity Reservation Groups (CRGs)	capacity-reservation-overview, association-disassociation
Essential Machine Management	Enable and manage EMM for subscription-level VM onboarding	emm-overview, emm-prerequisites, emm-enable-flow-portal-guidance, emm-enable-flow
