azure-cloud-hsmExpert knowledge for Azure Cloud Hsm development including troubleshooting, best practices, limits & quotas, security, and integrations & coding patterns.
Azure Cloud Hsm is an agent skill from MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Expert knowledge for Azure Cloud Hsm development including troubleshooting, best practices, limits & quotas, security, and integrations & coding patterns. Use when configuring Cloud HSM auth/networking, PKCS11 apps, X.509 cert storage, capacity limits, or cluster issues, and other Azure Cloud Hsm related development tasks. Not for Azure Dedicated HSM (use azure-dedicated-hsm), Azure Payment Hsm (use azure-payment-hsm), Azure Key Vault (use azure-key-vault), Azure Attestation (use azure-attestation).
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Requires network access. Uses mcpmicrosoftdocs:microsoftdocsfetch or fetchwebpage to retrieve documentation.
It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Microsoft Azure and Azure Key Vault. The repository describes itself as: Curated Agent Skills for Microsoft & Azure – giving AI coding assistants structured, real-time expertise from Microsoft Learn docs. The licence is CC-BY-4.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ba74e8f. 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.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
learn.microsoft.comgithub.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Requires network access. Uses mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage to retrieve documentation.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Azure Cloud Hsm loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 130 tokens; SKILL.md has 428 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.
