What it does

Azure Web Pubsub is an agent skill from MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Expert knowledge for Azure Web PubSub development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when building WebSocket/MQTT apps, using Socket.IO, configuring event routing, geo-replication, or chat workloads, and other Azure Web PubSub related development tasks. Not for Azure SignalR Service (use azure-signalr-service), Azure Event Hubs (use azure-event-hubs), Azure Service…

Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k 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 Backend & APIs, covering Realtime and WebSockets and Design patterns. It works with Azure Web PubSub, Azure Event Hubs, Azure Service Bus and Microsoft Azure. 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

  • Building WebSocket/MQTT apps
  • Using Socket.IO
  • Configuring event routing
  • Geo-replication

Example prompts

  • “/azure-web-pubsub”

Requirements

  • 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.com
    • github.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 Web Pubsub loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 141 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,143 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~141
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.2k

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.

Azure Web PubSub Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Web PubSub. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. 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), use read_file with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., [security.md](security.md)), use read_file on the linked reference file

IMPORTANT for Agent: If metadata.generated_at is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If mcp_microsoftdocs tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

  • Preferred: Use mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch with query string from=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown.
  • Fallback: Use fetch_webpage with query string from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.

How do I install Azure Web Pubsub in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills --skill azure-web-pubsub -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/azure-web-pubsub in MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills) into .claude/skills/azure-web-pubsub in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Azure Web Pubsub in Codex?

Run `npx skills add MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills --skill azure-web-pubsub -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/azure-web-pubsub in MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills) into .agents/skills/azure-web-pubsub in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Azure Web Pubsub in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add MicrosoftDocs/Agent-Skills --skill azure-web-pubsub -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-web-pubsub, .gemini/skills/azure-web-pubsub, .github/skills/azure-web-pubsub and .opencode/skills/azure-web-pubsub in your project.

What does Azure Web Pubsub need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Azure Web Pubsub is instructions for the agent only. Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires network access. Uses mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage to retrieve documentation..

Does Azure Web Pubsub access the network?

SKILL.md names 2 domains. As links in the text: learn.microsoft.com and github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Azure Web Pubsub safe to install?

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.

What licence does Azure Web Pubsub use?

Azure Web Pubsub is published under the CC-BY-4.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Azure Web Pubsub use?

About 4.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 17k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Azure Web Pubsub?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Azure Web Pubsub: Azure Messaging Webpubsub Java (microsoft/skills, 3.1k stars), Azure Messaging Webpubsubservice Py (microsoft/skills, 3.1k stars), Kui Framework (abersheeran/kui, 297 stars) and Azure Event Hubs Python SDK Guide (microsoft/skills, 3.1k stars).
