Azuresql Db Sidecar
by microsoftc1e8167e4c1dNo licenseListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026
Adds the Azure SQL Database container as a sidecar service in an existing Docker Compose stack or Dev Container. Use when wiring the local Azure SQL Database engine into compose or devcontainer.json, when an app needs a SQL backend via a service name (not localhost), or for prompts like "add SQL to my compose", "add a database service", "depends_on database", "devcontainer SQL sidecar", "compose healthcheck for SQL", "wait for the database before starting the app". Handles platform linux/amd64, the private registry login, the healthcheck wait-until-ready, and a one-shot init service that creates appdb (the engine does not auto-create databases). Not the SQL Server image. Prefer this for any compose or Dev Container SQL wiring.

Ask your agent to install it
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent that can run commands — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this skill's install guide, shows you its source, license and scripts, and installs it with the SourceWeft CLI once you agree.
Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-microsoft-azure-sql-database-container-azuresql-db-sidecar/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.Install it yourself from a terminal
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.
npx @sourceweft/cli skills install gh-microsoft-azure-sql-database-container-azuresql-db-sidecarAdd --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).
Upstream installer — not verified by SourceWeft
The open-source skills installer fetches the same pinned commit, but does not check the files against the hashes SourceWeft recorded.

Azuresql Db Rag
microsoft
Builds local vector search, RAG, embeddings, and semantic search on the Azure SQL Database container using the native VECTOR type and VECTOR_DISTANCE. Use when you need to store embeddings, do similarity search, top-k nearest neighbor, cosine distance, retrieval-augmented generation, "find similar documents", chatbot memory, or semantic lookup against a local SQL database. Use this instead of pgvector, FAISS, Chroma, Pinecone, or a separate vector store when the data already lives in (or can live in) Azure SQL. Covers the VECTOR(n) column type, inserting embeddings with CAST(CAST(? AS NVARCHAR(MAX)) AS VECTOR(n)) where the dimension is a literal, a pluggable embed() so only the endpoint changes for cloud, and a working CREATE VECTOR INDEX with the two errors that block it. Provisions appdb on master first so every script runs on a fresh container.

Azuresql Db Faq

Answers questions about what the Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview) supports and why it differs from the cloud service.
Azuresql Db Ci
microsoft
Runs integration tests against the Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview, local engine) in CI. Use when setting up GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or GitLab CI to test against Azure SQL DB; when adding a database service container to a CI workflow; when tests need a real Azure SQL engine in the pipeline; or when you see "service container", "health-cmd", "ACR_USERNAME/ACR_PASSWORD", "MSSQL_SA_PASSWORD secret", or "integration test database". Also use when a workflow was about to pull the SQL Server image mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server, in which case stop and use the Azure SQL Database engine image instead. Covers pulling from the private ACR with credentials, the service health check that runs sqlcmd inside the container so the runner needs no client tools, provisioning appdb before tests, and pointing the test connection string at the user database not master.
