Azure AI Anomaly Detector Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure AI Anomaly Detector. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, limits & quotas, configuration, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

How to Use This Skill

IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., L35-L120), use read_file with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., [security.md](security.md)), use read_file on the linked reference file

IMPORTANT for Agent: If metadata.generated_at is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If mcp_microsoftdocs tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

  • Preferred: Use mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch with query string from=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown.
  • Fallback: Use fetch_webpage with query string from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.

Summary

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure AI Anomaly Detector, covering troubleshooting, best practices, limits & quotas, configuration, and deployment scenarios. It serves as a reference index to Microsoft Learn documentation with optional MCP-based remote fetching capabilities, enabling agents to troubleshoot issues, understand service constraints, and deploy containerized Anomaly Detector instances.

Use Cases

  • Troubleshoot Anomaly Detector error codes and diagnose multivariate API failures
  • Review service limits and quota constraints for API request rates and data processing
  • Configure Docker containers with environment variables, resource limits, and logging
  • Deploy Anomaly Detector to Azure Container Instances (ACI) or IoT Edge
  • Learn best practices for univariate and multivariate anomaly detection workflows

Quality Notes

  • Strength: Clear category index with line ranges and descriptions helps agents locate content efficiently
  • Strength: Explicit handling of missing tools with fallback instructions and installation guidance
  • Strength: Metadata staleness detection shows awareness of documentation drift
  • Limitation: Skill body content appears to be a template/stub—no actual instructional content under the category headings (lines 33–58 are not shown)
  • Limitation: Line number references (L33-L38, etc.) cannot be validated since body content is absent or truncated
  • Limitation: No edge case guidance (e.g., handling network failures, timeout behavior, API rate limits during fetch)
  • Limitation: No examples of successful troubleshooting workflows or common error patterns
  • Limitation: Scope distinction from azure-metrics-advisor and azure-monitor is mentioned but not reinforced with examples
