What it does
Azure Quantum is an agent skill from MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Expert knowledge for Azure Quantum development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when using QDK with Python/Q, OpenQASM or hybrid jobs, Rigetti/IonQ targets, QIR jobs, or Bicep/CLI workspace deploys, and other Azure Quantum related development tasks. Not for Azure HDInsight (use azure-hdinsight), Azure Databricks (use azure-databricks), Azure Machine Learning (use…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.6k 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 Development, covering Design patterns and Infrastructure as code. It works with Microsoft Azure, Azure Machine Learning, Databricks and Bicep. 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.
When your agent uses it
- Using QDK with Python/Q
- Rigetti/IonQ targets
- Bicep/CLI workspace deploys
- Other Azure Quantum related development tasks
Example prompts
- “/azure-quantum”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires network access. Uses mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage to retrieve documentation.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ba74e8f. 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
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.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
learn.microsoft.comgithub.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.
Compatibility
Requires network access. Uses mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage to retrieve documentation.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Azure Quantum loads about 2.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 153 tokens; SKILL.md has 772 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.
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.

It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.
How to Use This Skill
IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g.,
L35-L120), useread_filewith the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g.,[security.md](security.md)), useread_fileon the linked reference file
IMPORTANT for Agent: If
metadata.generated_atis more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. Ifmcp_microsoftdocstools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide
This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:
- Preferred: Use
