azure-diagnostics

azure-diagnostics is a skill for Claude Code from Tyler-R-Kendrick/agent-skills. It costs 128 tokens per session (766 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for diagnosing production problems in Azure, Microsoft's cloud platform. It covers Container Apps, logs, health checks, and issues such as failed image downloads, slow starts, and failed health probes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to troubleshoot Azure services, inspect Container Apps logs and metrics with KQL, investigate application errors, and document attempted fixes.
Why use it?
It gives you a structured way to investigate what changed, whether Azure resources are healthy, and what logs and measurements show. This helps narrow down the cause of a live-service failure.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

azure-diagnostics 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 11d 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.

Azure Diagnostics

AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE — MANDATORY COMPLIANCE

This document is the official source for debugging and troubleshooting Azure production issues. Follow these instructions to diagnose and resolve common Azure service problems systematically.

Triggers

Activate this skill when user wants to:

  • Debug or troubleshoot production issues
  • Diagnose errors in Azure services
  • Analyze application logs or metrics
  • Fix image pull, cold start, or health probe issues
  • Investigate why Azure resources are failing
  • Find root cause of application errors

Rules

  1. Start with systematic diagnosis flow
  2. Use AppLens (MCP) for AI-powered diagnostics when available
  3. Check resource health before deep-diving into logs
  4. Select appropriate troubleshooting guide based on service type
  5. Document findings and attempted remediation steps

Quick Diagnosis Flow

  1. Identify symptoms - What's failing?
  2. Check resource health - Is Azure healthy?
  3. Review logs - What do logs show?
  4. Analyze metrics - Performance patterns?
  5. Investigate recent changes - What changed?

Troubleshooting Guides by Service

Service Common Issues Reference
Container Apps Image pull failures, cold starts, health probes, port mismatches container-apps/

Quick Reference

Common Diagnostic Commands

# Check resource health
az resource show --ids RESOURCE_ID

# View activity log
az monitor activity-log list -g RG --max-events 20

# Container Apps logs
az containerapp logs show --name APP -g RG --follow

AppLens (MCP Tools)

For AI-powered diagnostics, use:

mcp_azure_mcp_applens
  intent: "diagnose issues with <resource-name>"
  command: "diagnose"
  parameters:
    resourceId: "<resource-id>"

Provides:
- Automated issue detection
- Root cause analysis
- Remediation recommendations

Azure Monitor (MCP Tools)

For querying logs and metrics:

mcp_azure_mcp_monitor
  intent: "query logs for <resource-name>"
  command: "logs_query"
  parameters:
    workspaceId: "<workspace-id>"
    query: "<KQL-query>"

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.
