microsoft/sre-agent is the community repository for Azure SRE Agent, an AI assistant for diagnosing and resolving production problems and reducing routine operations work. It is for teams working on service reliability and includes documentation, discussions, videos, and hands-on labs for using the product. The catalogue skills relate to the agent's official plugins and resources.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00091 | $0.00990 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00046 | $0.00495 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00198 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00099 |
Grade A, and why
connectivity-triage 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 4d 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 — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Zava Learning — Connectivity / Edge Incident Runbook
Resource Group: @@RG@@. Public entry: Application Gateway -> learner-portal (Container App,
internal ingress) -> course-api / assessment-api (environment-internal). App Insights
cloud_RoleName values: learner-portal, course-api, assessment-api.
Diagnose root cause from telemetry and configuration, then remediate within the boundary below. Do NOT guess the cause from the alert name — the alert is symptom-only by design.
Trace the path, hop by hop
- Application Gateway — backend health (
az network application-gateway show-backend-health), probe path/host, HTTP settings. A probe pointed at a path the portal doesn't serve marks the backend unhealthy and yields 502s. - NSG on the Container Apps subnet — list effective rules. A higher-priority DENY can beat a lower-priority ALLOW (priority inversion) and silently block App Gateway -> apps.
- Container Apps internal load balancer / ingress — revision health, replica counts.
- APIs — are
course-api/assessment-apianswering and healthy?
Use the built-in network troubleshooting skills (network_connectivity_troubleshoot,
application_gateway_troubleshoot, load_balancer_troubleshoot, network_topology_mapper) to go deep
on any hop. Filter App Insights/LAW queries by the relevant cloud_RoleName.
Permitted autonomous actions
- Neutralize a blocking NSG rule with a non-destructive update, not a delete: run
az network nsg rule update ... --access Allow(or raise the DENY rule's--priorityabove the ALLOW). The write tool restrictsdelete/remove, and anupdateachieves the same effect — so never reach foraz network nsg rule delete. - Correct an Application Gateway probe path / HTTP settings back to a healthy configuration.
- Restart a Container Apps revision.
Azure CLI usage (avoid avoidable command failures)
- Do not pass
-o/--outputor--querytoRunAzCliReadCommands. The read tool already returns JSON — adding-o json,-o table, or a--queryprojection makes the command fail with a generic "Unknown error occurred." Run the plain command (e.g.az network nsg rule list --nsg-name ... --include-default) and pick out the fields you need from the JSON in your reasoning. - If any read still returns "Unknown error occurred," just retry the plain command once — the first tool call in a session can fail transiently. Do not conclude the resource is broken.
- Always pass
--subscriptionand prefer resource IDs to avoid ambiguity. ConsultGetAzCliHelpbefore an unfamiliar write flag rather than guessing syntax.
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.

connectivity-triage is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/sre-agent (151 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 91 tokens to every session and 990 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
article-writing
Write articles, guides, blog posts, tutorials, newsletter issues, and other long-form content in a distinctive voice derived from supplied examples or brand guidance. Use when the user wants polished written content longer than a paragraph, especially when voice consistency, structure, and credibility matter.
miniapp
Build a tiny interactive HTML playground only when someone asks to see, play with, or step through a mechanism.
eli5
Explain research, papers, or technical ideas in plain English with minimal jargon, concrete analogies, and clear takeaways. Use when the user says "ELI5 this", asks for a simple explanation of a paper or research result, wants jargon removed, or asks what something technically dense actually means.
code-documenter
Use when adding docstrings, creating API documentation, or building documentation sites. Invoke for OpenAPI/Swagger specs, JSDoc, doc portals, tutorials, user guides.
deck-course-module
暖纸背景 + Playfair, 左侧学习目标常驻, 含 MCQ 自测页.
ark-documentation
