Details

From the project README

Azure Advisor

Quick reference

Prefer Azure Advisor MCP tools over Resource Graph or generic ARM tools.

Intent	Tool
Counts, breakdowns, rankings, or top types	`advisor_recommendation_summary`
Individual recommendations or affected resources	`advisor_recommendation_list`
Complete, dismiss, postpone, or reactivate	`advisor_recommendation_update`
Browse recommendation types	`advisor_metadata_list`
Get one type by ID	`advisor_metadata_get`
Retrieve remediation	`advisor_remediation_get`, then `azure-advisor-actionability`

Workflow

Identify subscription or service-group scope. Resource-group scope requires a subscription.
Reuse known scope and identifiers; ask only for missing values.
Use summary for aggregates and list for records. Never count a capped list.
Present only returned data, including truncation, access limitations, and errors.

Route requests to fix one recommendation to the azure-advisor-actionability skill. Otherwise choose the tool from the table, including summary or list for service retirements.

Safety

Confirm before recommendation-state updates. The actionability skill owns remediation safeguards.
