≈54 tokens for metadata: the name and description. ≈305 when used: this file. ≈14 more on demand in 1 file.

Description uses 2.7% of example budget

Before choosing a Skill, your Agent reads its name and description. All available Skills share that space.

  • A shorter description leaves more room for other Skills. This entry exceeds our 1% size suggestion.

In our Claude Code example, all Skill names and descriptions share 8,000 characters. This Skill uses ≈215 characters, or 2.7%.

The 1% threshold is a size suggestion. Longer descriptions can still fit.

Your model, settings, and other Skills decide how much text your Agent can read.

Example settings and source

The example uses a 200k-token context and default Claude Code settings. The count includes the name, description, separators, and when_to_use when present. Codex also counts local file paths.

Skit's source and limits: Codex 0.160.1, Claude Code 2.1.292.

Azure Advisor

Quick reference

Prefer Azure Advisor MCP tools over Resource Graph or generic ARM tools.

Intent Tool
Counts, breakdowns, rankings, or top types advisor_recommendation_summary
Individual recommendations or affected resources advisor_recommendation_list
Complete, dismiss, postpone, or reactivate advisor_recommendation_update
Browse recommendation types advisor_metadata_list
Get one type by ID advisor_metadata_get
Retrieve remediation advisor_remediation_get, then azure-advisor-actionability

Workflow

  1. Identify subscription or service-group scope. Resource-group scope requires a subscription.
  2. Reuse known scope and identifiers; ask only for missing values.
  3. Use summary for aggregates and list for records. Never count a capped list.
  4. Present only returned data, including truncation, access limitations, and errors.

Route requests to fix one recommendation to the azure-advisor-actionability skill. Otherwise choose the tool from the table, including summary or list for service retirements.

Safety

Confirm before recommendation-state updates. The actionability skill owns remediation safeguards.
