Summary

Deploy, evaluate, fine-tune, and manage Foundry agents end-to-end with azd: hosted agent scaffold/run/deploy, prompt agent create, batch eval, continuous eval, prompt optimizer, Agent Optimizer scaffold, agent.yaml, dataset curation from traces, model fine-tuning (SFT/DPO/RFT). U

1	# Microsoft Foundry Skill
2
3	This skill helps developers work with Microsoft Foundry resources, covering model discovery and deployment, complete dev lifecycle of AI agent, evaluation workflows, and troubleshooting.
4
5	## Pre-Execution Requirements
6
7	Before using Foundry MCP operations, call the Azure MCP `foundry` tool and inspect the available Foundry MCP tools and related parameters. Treat this as the discovery/help step for MCP-based workflows.
8
9	## Sub-Skills
10
11	> MANDATORY: Before executing ANY workflow-specific steps, you MUST read the corresponding sub-skill document. Do not call workflow-specific MCP tools for a workflow without reading its skill document. This applies even if you already know the MCP tool parameters — the skill document contains required workflow steps, pre-checks, and validation logic that must be followed. This rule applies on every new user message that triggers a different workflow, even if the skill is already loaded.
12
13	> MANDATORY: Before executing ANY azd command, you MUST read [azd-guidance](foundry-agent/azd-guidance/azd-guidance.md) and strictly follow the shared rules defined in it, especially the `AZURE_DEV_USER_AGENT` setting rules.
14
15	This skill includes specialized sub-skills for specific workflows. Use these instead of the main skill when they match your task:
16
17	\| Sub-Skill \| When to Use \| Reference \|
18	\|-----------\|-------------\|-----------\|
19	\| deploy \| Deploy hosted agents to Foundry, smoke-test a deployment, create or update prompt agents, and manage agent versions and multi-environment deploys. \| [deploy](foundry-agent/deploy/deploy.md) \|
20	\| cicd \| Set up a CI/CD deployment pipeline for a Foundry agent. \| [cicd](foundry-agent/cicd/cicd.md) \|
21	\| invoke \| Send messages to an agent, single or multi-turn conversations \| [invoke](foundry-agent/invoke/invoke.md) \|
22	\| routine \| Schedule or event-trigger Foundry agents with routines; use `azd` for CRUD, enable/disable, manual dispatch, and viewing past runs, or define routines in `azure.yaml`. \| [routine](foundry-agent/routine/routine.md) \|
23	\| invocations-ws \| Build, deploy, and connect to hosted agents that speak the `invocations_ws` duplex WebSocket protocol — voice agents, real-time streams, and signaling for out-of-band media transports. \| [invocations-ws](foundry-agent/invocations-ws/invocations-ws.md) \|
24	\| observe \| Evaluate agent quality, run batch evals, analyze failures, optimize prompts, improve agent instructions, compare versions, set up CI/CD monitoring, and enable continuous production evaluation \| [observe](foundry-agent/observe/observe.md) \|
25	\| trace \| Query traces, analyze latency/failures, correlate eval results to specific responses via App Insights `customEvents` \| [trace](foundry-agent/trace/trace.md) \|
26	\| troubleshoot \| View hosted agent logs, query telemetry, diagnose failures \| [troubleshoot](foundry-agent/troubleshoot/troubleshoot.md) \|
27	\| create (quick start) \| Create a new hosted Foundry agent from scratch end-to-end — scaffold, provision or use an existing Foundry project, deploy, and smoke-test. Opinionated happy-path that accepts common overrides (language, region, sample, topic, existing project, existing model). For anything not covered by the quickstart, use create. \| [create/quick-start-hosted.md](foundry-agent/create/quick-start-hosted.md) \|
28	\| create \| Use when the standard end-to-end happy path doesn't fit — lifting existing agent code into the project, deploying outside the default code path, wiring connections at scaffold time, advanced setup, A2A (Agent2Agent), or recovering from a failed quickstart run. \| [create](foundry-agent/create/create-hosted.md) \|
29	\| agent-optimizer \| Make existing Python hosted-agent code optimization-ready, configure eval.yaml, run Agent Optimizer jobs, apply candidates locally, and deploy through azd after revie
