Azure Large Instances Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Large Instances. Covers troubleshooting, limits & quotas, and integrations & coding patterns. 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.

Use Cases

  • Diagnose Azure Large Instances connectivity and performance issues with Epic integration
  • Review Epic SKU capacity limits and quotas for sizing decisions
  • Configure and tune Epic EHR storage volume groups on Azure Large Instances
  • Resolve Epic-ALI operational errors and configuration problems
  • Access Azure Large Instances best practices and sizing guidance

Quality Notes

  • Skill provides clear category index with direct Microsoft Learn URLs for documentation
  • Instructions include helpful guidance for agents on staleness detection (3-month threshold) and fallback tool availability
  • Category descriptions are focused and domain-specific (Epic integration, ALI configuration)
  • Skill explicitly defines scope boundaries — excludes Azure Baremetal, VMs, VMSS, HPC Cache
  • Line range references (L31-L35, L36-L40, L41-L44) in category index are imprecise or incomplete — the skill markdown ends at line 44 but the category index suggests content that is not present in the file
  • Missing supporting reference files — category index mentions line ranges but no supporting markdown files are included in the manifest
  • Tool availability warning is helpful but the skill lacks fallback instructions if neither MCP tool nor fetch_webpage succeeds
