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.

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 | $0.00106 | $0.01107 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00053 | $0.00553 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00021 | $0.00221 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00111 |
Grade A, and why
azure-foundry scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 6d 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Azure AI Foundry
Companion Extension: For detailed operational playbooks (create agents, deploy containers, invoke endpoints, trace with App Insights, troubleshoot), install Azure MCP Extension (
ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-mcp-server). In VS Code it also wires in the Azure Skills plugin frommicrosoft/azure-skillsplus Foundry MCP. AgentX recommends it when Azure files are detected and the installer can add it automatically for Azure-oriented workspaces.
When to Use This Skill
- Designing agent architecture on Azure Foundry or Azure AI Agent Service
- Selecting models via GitHub Models or Azure AI model catalog (cost/quality tradeoffs)
- Planning evaluation strategy with Foundry evals (RAGAS, LLM-as-judge)
- Defining guardrails, safety instructions, and content filtering policies
- Choosing deployment patterns (managed endpoint vs AKS vs serverless)
Agent Lifecycle
Design -> Build -> Evaluate -> Deploy -> Monitor -> Iterate
- Design - Define agent capabilities, tool schemas, system prompts
- Build - Implement with Azure AI Agent Service or Semantic Kernel
- Evaluate - Run evals (RAGAS, custom rubrics, LLM-as-judge)
- Deploy - Azure AI Foundry managed endpoints or AKS
- Monitor - Application Insights + OpenTelemetry tracing
- Iterate - Feedback loops, prompt refinement, model updates
Tracing Pattern
All agent calls MUST include OpenTelemetry spans:
agent.plan- Planning/reasoning stepagent.tool_call- Tool invocation with input/outputagent.llm_call- LLM API call with model, tokens, latencyagent.response- Final response with quality metrics
Export to Application Insights via APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRING.
Tool Definition
Tools use JSON Schema for parameters. Every tool MUST have:
name- Unique, descriptive identifierdescription- What it does (used by LLM for selection)parameters- JSON Schema with required fields marked
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-foundry is a skill published in the GitHub repository jnPiyush/AgentX (15 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 106 tokens to every session and 1,107 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
