azure-storage
Unified access to Azure blob storage, file shares, queues, tables
by microsoftFree
Description
azure-storage is an agent skill from Microsoft's azure-skills collection that gives an AI agent working knowledge of Azure Storage services. It covers five service types: Blob Storage for objects, files, backups and static content; File Shares for SMB access and lift-and-shift; Queue Storage for asynchronous messaging and task queues; Table Storage for NoSQL key-value data, where the skill notes Cosmos DB may be a better fit; and Data Lake for big data analytics with a hierarchical namespace. For each service the skill lists the matching Azure CLI command group, such as az storage blob, az storage file, az storage queue, az storage table and az storage fs. When the Azure MCP server is enabled, the skill prefers its storage tools. It also answers questions about storage access tiers such as hot and cool. It suits developers who need to pick a storage service or run common storage tasks from an agent. The skill is listed on skills.sh.…
