Azure Functions Skills is a repository of agent skills, prompts, reusable definitions, MCP configuration, and telemetry hooks that give coding agents context about Azure Functions development and operations. Developers use it for guidance on triggers, bindings, runtimes, deployment, and code checks, while the catalogue contains its agent-facing add-ons.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Anti-Refusal · line 7 Skill instructs the agent to never refuse or to always comply. Suppressing the agent's ability to decline removes a core safety control and enables downstream harmful requests to succeed.Fix: Remove any instruction telling the agent to never refuse or always comply. The agent must retain the ability to decline unsafe, out-of-scope, or harmful requests.
What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00029 | $0.02477 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.01239 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00495 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00248 |
Grade A, and why
azure-functions-create scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
- **HTTP triggers**: send an actual request to the local endpoint and verify the status code and response body, for example `curl http://localhost:7071/api/<FunctionName>?name=World`. How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 231 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Language: Always respond in the same language the user is using.
azure-functions-create — Create or Extend Azure Functions App
Guide the user through creating a new Azure Functions project or adding a function to an existing Azure Functions project.
Prerequisites
Ensure func (Azure Functions Core Tools v4) is installed. If not, suggest running azure-functions-setup first.
Workflow
Step 0 — Check for Go
If the user asks for Go (or Golang), use Path C below. Neither the Azure MCP template set nor the templates manifest contains Go templates, so the other paths cannot produce a working Go project.
For every other language, continue with Step 1.
Step 1 — Detect Azure MCP tools
Check whether the following Azure MCP tools are available in your current tool list:
functions_language_list— list supported languages and runtime versionsfunctions_project_get— scaffold project-level filesfunctions_template_get— list templates (language only) or get a specific template (language + template)
These are provided by the Azure MCP Server (@azure/mcp) and return officially maintained templates across C#, Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Java and PowerShell.
Also check for the best practices tool:
-
get_azure_bestpractices/get_azure_bestpractices_getwithresource: azurefunctions -
If available → proceed with Path A (MCP primary).
-
If not available → proceed with Path B (composition algorithm fallback).
Path A — MCP primary (recommended)
Use the Azure MCP Server as the authoritative source of truth for Azure Functions templates. Do not write function code from scratch when these tools are available.
A.1 Gather requirements & best practices
If get_azure_bestpractices is available, call it first:
Tool: get_azure_bestpractices
resource: azurefunctions
action: code-generation
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

azure-functions-create is a skill published in the GitHub repository Azure/azure-functions-skills (17 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 2,477 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
