What it does
Analyzes Azure resource groups and generates Mermaid architecture diagrams that visualize resource relationships, configurations, and data flows. Use this skill when you need to understand how Azure resources within a resource group connect to each other or create documentation of your infrastructure topology.
Generated from the current SKILL.md.
Frequently asked
Does this skill work with Azure CLI or does it require MCP tools?
The skill prefers Azure MCP tools for resource discovery and analysis, but falls back to Azure CLI commands (like `az resource list`) when MCP isn't available.
Can this skill analyze resources across multiple resource groups?
No. The skill analyzes a single resource group at a time. Cross-resource-group dependencies are noted in diagram annotations but not fully visualized.
What happens if I have a resource group with 50+ resources?
The skill can generate multiple diagrams split by layer (Network, Compute, Data, Security) to keep diagrams readable rather than creating one overwhelmingly large diagram.
Does this skill modify or delete any Azure resources?
No. The skill is read-only and only analyzes and visualizes existing resources. It never modifies or deletes anything.
What diagram format does this skill output?
Mermaid diagrams in markdown files, using subgraphs to group resources by layer (Network, Compute, Data, Security) with labeled connections showing data flow and dependencies.
