azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-javaBuild image analysis applications with Azure AI Vision SDK for Java.
Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java is an agent skill from microsoft/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Build image analysis applications with Azure AI Vision SDK for Java. Use when implementing image captioning, OCR text extraction, object detection, tagging, or smart cropping.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/examples.md`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Computer vision. It works with Azure AI Vision and Java. The repository describes itself as: Skills, MCP servers, Custom Agents, Agents.md for SDKs to ground Coding Agents. The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 354361d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are java, xml and bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
learn.microsoft.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
VISION_KEYAZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALSFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 161 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.
The full file from microsoft/skills at commit 354361d, republished under its MIT licence (© microsoft). 161 words, ~2,183 tokens.

Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java fits situations like: implementing image captioning; OCR text extraction; object detection.
Run `npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.github/plugins/azure-sdk-java/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java in microsoft/skills) into .claude/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

Or copy the skill folder (.github/plugins/azure-sdk-java/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java in microsoft/skills) into .agents/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java, .gemini/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java, .github/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java and .opencode/skills/azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java needs credentials named VISION_KEY and AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS. Our summary lists: A credential in VISION_KEY.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: learn.microsoft.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 8.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 5.5k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Azure AI Vision Imageanalysis Java: Azure AI Vision Reference (MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills, 775 stars), Azure Custom Vision (MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills, 775 stars), ModLens Image Vision Bridge (liustack/modlens, 4.1k stars) and Claude API (Kocoro-lab/Kocoro, 414 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
