Backdoor DeploymentValidate a container image change via backdoor deployment. Use when: deploying test image to a cluster, comparing data volume between deployments, comparing resource consumption, backdoor deploy, validate container image, image regression testing, build and deploy branch.microsoft/Docker-Provider173
Multiline ValidationValidate multi-line log stitching behavior for an ama-logs image change. Enables multiline in the configmap, deploys the OLD (production) image, captures stitching baselines, deploys the NEW (test) image, captures the same metrics, and produces an A/B comparison per language and OS. Use when: validating a fluent-bit upgrade, validating a parser/configmap change, comparing multiline stitching between two images, multi-line A/B test, stacktrace stitching test.microsoft/Docker-Provider173
Upgrade TelegrafUpgrade Telegraf to a new version in the dalec-build-defs repo. Creates a new spec file, updates version/commit/changelog, and prepares a branch for PR. Use when someone says 'upgrade telegraf', 'new telegraf version', 'bump telegraf', or 'update telegraf package'. DO NOT USE FOR: patching existing versions, modifying build targets, or non-telegraf packages.microsoft/Docker-Provider173
Azure Monitor RcaInvestigate Azure Monitor incidents using application, database, and network evidence without changing workload resources.microsoft/sre-agent170
Connectivity TriageUse for any Zava Learning incident where students cannot reach the platform or actions fail at the network/edge layer — quiz launches failing, portal 5xx, requests timing out, or backends appearing unhealthy. Traces the full request path (Application Gateway -> NSG -> Container Apps internal load balancer -> APIs) from telemetry and Azure config, finds the broken hop, and remediates within the permitted-action boundary.microsoft/sre-agent170
Cost AnalysisUse when an operator or a scheduled task requests a periodic cloud-cost / spend audit of the Zava Learning resource group — identify the top cost drivers, week-over-week trend, idle or oversized resources, and concrete savings opportunities. Read-only; produces findings for a report.microsoft/sre-agent170
Deploying DemoDeploy the SRE Agent demo end-to-end. Use when asked to set up, deploy, or get this demo running.microsoft/sre-agent170
Deployment Compliance CheckChecks whether Azure Container App deployments comply with the organization's CI/CD-only deployment policy. Uses three signals: Activity Log caller identity, Docker image labels (tamper-proof), and resource tags. QueryLogAnalyticsByWorkspaceIdmicrosoft/sre-agent170
Email Incident FollowupDraft an opted-in incident email and request approval before sending, with best-effort duplicate checks.microsoft/sre-agent170
Evidence Before AfterUse to build the before-and-after visual evidence for a Zava Learning incident. First classify the fault, then render the ONE visual that actually explains what changed — a before/after path or topology diagram for connectivity/config/RBAC faults, or time-series comparison charts for performance/availability faults — plus a state/metric delta table. Never plot a metric that does not tell the story. Its output is used in the RCA and the zava-reporting deliverables.microsoft/sre-agent170
Github Issue FollowupDraft an opted-in GitHub incident follow-up and request approval before publishing, with best-effort duplicate checks.microsoft/sre-agent170
Managing Sre AgentManage Azure SRE Agent configuration for this demo: connectors, skills, guarded custom agents, response plans, and the knowledge base. Use when asked to create, list, update, or delete SRE Agent resources.microsoft/sre-agent170
Nsg AuditUse when an operator or a scheduled task requests a periodic Network Security Group (NSG) and connectivity-path audit of the Zava Learning resource group — enumerate every NSG and its rules, trace the full path (NSGs, UDRs / route tables, Private Endpoints, DNS, and any firewall), flag overly-permissive, shadowed, unused, or orphaned rules, and recommend least-exposure corrections. Read-only; produces findings for a report.microsoft/sre-agent170
Onboarding LabSet up, resume, inspect or operate the Azure SRE Agent onboarding lab in this checkout. Use when a learner asks for help preparing the lab, understanding a setup failure, or saving their reviewed learner artifact.microsoft/sre-agent170
Pagerduty Incident UpdateUse to keep the triggering PagerDuty incident in sync with the investigation and to close it out — acknowledge on engagement, mark the incident Mitigated the moment the live fix lands, post a concise symptom-only status/summary note (diagnosis, mitigation, links to the PR / Change Request), and resolve the incident only after the RCA and summary report are complete and recovery is verified. This is the PagerDuty communication and closure layer for a Zava Learning incident.microsoft/sre-agent170
Performance InvestigationUse for Zava Learning incidents where the platform is reachable but a compute tier is degraded — elevated 5xx from the APIs, slow quiz responses, exceptions, an API with no healthy instances, or a back-office batch job failing on the reporting-worker VM (e.g. nightly grade exports). Diagnoses from Application Insights / Log Analytics / Syslog and remediates the application or worker tier.microsoft/sre-agent170
Pr DeliveryUse to deliver a durable Zava Learning fix as a GitHub pull request once an incident has been root-caused — for either an Infrastructure-as-Code change (Bicep under infra/) or an application code change (under src/). The single skill that creates pull requests; applies after live mitigation and root-cause confirmation. The resulting PR URL is what the ServiceNow Change Request references.microsoft/sre-agent170
Proactive Health CheckAssess ticket reservation availability, failures, latency, dependencies, and Azure resource health using read-only evidence.microsoft/sre-agent170
Rbac AuditUse when an operator or a scheduled task requests a periodic RBAC / least-privilege audit of the Zava Learning resource group — enumerate the real role assignments effective on the group, correlate each identity against actual Activity-Log usage to find standing access that is never used, flag over-privileged and directly-assigned (versus group-governed) identities and stale troubleshooting access, and recommend least-privilege corrections. Read-only; produces findings for a report.microsoft/sre-agent170
Rca AnalysisUse to produce the root-cause analysis narrative for a resolved or mitigated Zava Learning incident — the incident timeline, the trigger vs. latent root cause (5-Whys), contributing factors, and how to present them. Defines the RCA section format; its output is used in the before/after, recommendations, and reporting deliverables.microsoft/sre-agent170
Recommendations Next StepsUse to produce the forward-looking recommendations and next steps for a Zava Learning incident — prioritized preventive, detective, and process actions with owners, target dates, and the risk of inaction. Its output is used in the zava-reporting deliverables.microsoft/sre-agent170
Redaction GuardUse whenever you are about to emit operator-visible content — a chat/thread message, a PagerDuty or ServiceNow note, a commit message or pull-request body, or any report artifact (HTML, PowerPoint, Teams card). Deterministically masks secrets, credentials, tokens, private keys, URI-embedded passwords, and PII so they never appear in the thread or in any deliverable. This is a cross-cutting guardrail invoked by the output-producing skills, not a runbook step.microsoft/sre-agent170
Running DemoRun break/fix demo scenarios with browser verification. Use when asked to demo, break the app, or show the SRE Agent working.microsoft/sre-agent170
Servicenow Change ManagementUse whenever a Zava Learning investigation produces a durable fix that needs change management — after a GitHub PR is opened for an Infrastructure-as-Code or application code root cause, raise a ServiceNow Change Request referencing the PR and attach the RCA report. The single owner of ServiceNow Change Request and attachment operations.microsoft/sre-agent170
Ticketing Pr ValidationValidate ticket reservation pull requests using repository evidence and optional read-only production baselines.microsoft/sre-agent170
Zava Audit ReportUse to package a completed Zava Learning weekly governance audit (NSG / network security, RBAC / least-privilege, or cloud cost) into a single branded, downloadable PowerPoint deck in the Zava house style. The calling audit agent passes its findings (a list of rows with severity) and a short posture summary; this skill renders the deck, applies redaction, and returns the attachment download link. Produces the artifact; it does not send it.microsoft/sre-agent170
Zava ReportingUse to package a completed Zava Learning incident analysis for the audience. First present a branded in-thread executive summary (markdown with the before/after visuals inline), then produce the downloadable deliverables — a PowerPoint deck, an HTML email, and a Teams notification — using the Zava corporate template. The calling agent may narrow this to a subset (e.g. only the HTML report). Produces content and artifacts; it does not send them. Assembles the output of rca-analysis, evidence-befomicrosoft/sre-agent170

Code ReviewReview a pull request in this repository (the vscode-containers / Container Tools extension) when the automated reviewer has already supplied the diff and changed files. Checks localization, async/resource correctness, TypeScript conventions, command-line construction, telemetry, settings, and cross-platform issues distilled from this repo's review history. For an on-demand review by PR number, URL, or current branch, use review-pr instead.microsoft/vscode-containers139
Review PrReview a specific vscode-containers pull request on demand from the CLI (or any interactive agent), the way a Container Tools maintainer would. Use when asked to review a PR by number, URL, or "the current branch", to produce a written review and, only when explicitly asked, post comments on the PR. Fetches the PR with the GitHub CLI and applies the shared review rubric.microsoft/vscode-containers139
KqlKQL language expertise for writing correct, efficient Kusto queries using the Fabric RTI MCP tools. Covers syntax gotchas, join patterns, dynamic types, datetime pitfalls, regex patterns, serialization, memory management, result-size discipline, and advanced functions (geo, vector, graph). USE THIS SKILL whenever writing, debugging, or reviewing KQL queries — even simple ones — because the gotchas section prevents the most common errors that waste tool calls and cause expensive retry cascades.
