Diagnosis Workflow

  1. Identify the SDK and version — Check the prompt for SDK and version clues; if not stated, proceed with diagnosis and ask later if needed
  2. Check resource health — Use mcp_azure_mcp_resourcehealth to verify the namespace is healthy
  3. Review the error message — Match against language-specific troubleshooting guide
  4. Look up documentation — Use mcp_azure_mcp_documentation to search Microsoft Learn for the error or topic
  5. Check configuration — Verify connection string, entity name, consumer group
  6. Recommend fix — Apply remediation, citing documentation found

Troubleshooting Guides

Connectivity, SDK, and auth troubleshooting guides are located in the azure-diagnostics skill under troubleshooting/messaging/.
