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
summaryfor aggregates andlistfor 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.
