Microsoft Docs

Tools

Tool	Use For
`microsoft_docs_search`	Find documentation—concepts, guides, tutorials, configuration
`microsoft_docs_fetch`	Get full page content (when search excerpts aren't enough)

When to Use

Understanding concepts — "How does Cosmos DB partitioning work?"
Learning a service — "Azure Functions overview", "Container Apps architecture"
Finding tutorials — "quickstart", "getting started", "step-by-step"
Configuration options — "App Service configuration settings"
Limits & quotas — "Azure OpenAI rate limits", "Service Bus quotas"
Best practices — "Azure security best practices"

Query Effectiveness

Good queries are specific:

# ❌ Too broad
"Azure Functions"

# ✅ Specific
"Azure Functions Python v2 programming model"
"Cosmos DB partition key design best practices"
"Container Apps scaling rules KEDA"

Include context:

Version when relevant (.NET 8, EF Core 8)
Task intent (quickstart, tutorial, overview, limits)
Platform for multi-platform docs (Linux, Windows)

When to Fetch Full Page

Fetch after search when:

Tutorials — need complete step-by-step instructions
Configuration guides — need all options listed
Deep dives — user wants comprehensive coverage
Search excerpt is cut off — full context needed

Why Use This

Accuracy — live docs, not training data that may be outdated
Completeness — tutorials have all steps, not fragments
Authority — official Microsoft documentation

CLI Alternative

If the Learn MCP server is not available, use the mslearn CLI from the command line instead:

# Run directly (no install needed)
npx @microsoft/learn-cli search "azure functions timeout"

# Or install globally, then run
npm install -g @microsoft/learn-cli
mslearn search "azure functions timeout"

MCP Tool	CLI Command
`microsoft_docs_search(query: "...")`	`mslearn search "..."`
`microsoft_docs_fetch(url: "...")`	`mslearn fetch "..."`

The fetch command also supports --section <heading> to extract a single section and --max-chars <number> to truncate output.
