What it does

Azure Usage is an agent skill from fcakyon/claude-codex-settings. This skill should be used when user asks to "query Azure resources", "list storage accounts", "manage Key Vault secrets", "work with Cosmos DB", "check AKS clusters", "use Azure MCP", or interact with any Azure service.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management and MCP servers. It works with Microsoft Azure, Model Context Protocol, Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Key Vault. The repository describes itself as: Battle-tested Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor configs, plugins, hooks and agents with Kimi, MiniMax and GLM API support. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks to query Azure resources
  • List storage accounts
  • Manage Key Vault secrets
  • Work with Cosmos DB

Example prompts

  • “query Azure resources”
  • “list storage accounts”
  • “manage Key Vault secrets”
  • “/azure-usage”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a035b4e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • az

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com
    • learn.microsoft.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Azure Usage loads about 461 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 122 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~461

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
