- 01Deployment and performance troubleshooting
- 02File layout and network tuning guidance
- 03Architecture and capacity planning references
- 04Security configuration and storage quota guidance
- 05Client, CSI, and data integration setup
Use cases
- 01Investigate cluster deployment or performance issues
- 02Plan filesystem capacity and performance
- 03Configure clients and the AKS CSI Driver
- 04Move data between Blob Storage and Lustre
MCP support
It can fetch remote Microsoft documentation through mcp_microsoftdocs tools; the README does not describe how the skill itself uses MCP.
Install
Copy the command and run it in a terminal.
npx skills add https:/After installing, type/azure-managed-lustrein Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

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
mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetchwith query stringfrom=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown. - Fallback: Use
fetch_webpagewith query stringfrom=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.
