Azure Observability Services
Services
| Service | Use When | MCP Tools | CLI |
|---------|----------|-----------|-----|
| Azure Monitor | Metrics, alerts, dashboards | azure__monitor | az monitor |
| Application Insights | APM, distributed tracing | azure__applicationinsights | az monitor app-insights |
| Log Analytics | Log queries, KQL | azure__kusto | az monitor log-analytics |
| Alerts | Notifications, actions | - | az monitor alert |
| Workbooks | Interactive reports | azure__workbooks | - |
MCP Server (Preferred)
When Azure MCP is enabled:
Monitor
azure__monitorwith commandmonitor_metrics_query- Query metricsazure__monitorwith commandmonitor_logs_query- Query logs with KQL
Application Insights
azure__applicationinsightswith commandapplicationinsights_component_list- List App Insights resources
Log Analytics
azure__kustowith commandkusto_cluster_list- List clustersazure__kustowith commandkusto_query- Execute KQL queries
If Azure MCP is not enabled: Run /azure:setup or enable via /mcp.
CLI Reference
# List Log Analytics workspaces
az monitor log-analytics workspace list --output table
# Query logs with KQL
az monitor log-analytics query \
--workspace WORKSPACE_ID \
--analytics-query "AzureActivity | take 10"
# List Application Insights
az monitor app-insights component list --output table
# List alerts
az monitor alert list --output table
# Query metrics
az monitor metrics list \
--resource RESOURCE_ID \
--metric "Percentage CPU"
Common KQL Queries
// Recent errors
AppExceptions
| where TimeGenerated > ago(1h)
| project TimeGenerated, Message, StackTrace
| order by TimeGenerated desc
// Request performance
AppRequests
| where TimeGenerated > ago(1h)
| summarize avg(DurationMs), count() by Name
| order by avg_DurationMs desc
// Resource usage
AzureMetrics
| where TimeGenerated > ago(1h)
| where MetricName == "Percentage CPU"
| summarize avg(Average) by Resource
Monitoring Strategy
| What to Monitor | Service | Metric/Log | |-----------------|---------|------------| | Application errors | App Insights | Exceptions, failed requests | | Performance | App Insights | Response time, dependencies | | Infrastructure | Azure Monitor | CPU, memory, disk | | Security | Log Analytics | Sign-ins, audit logs | | Costs | Cost Management | Budget alerts |

aiskillstore/graphql
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
GraphQL gives clients exactly the data they need - no more, no less. One endpoint, typed schema, introspection. But the flexibility that makes it powerful also makes it dangerous. Without proper controls, clients can craft queries that bring down your server. This skill covers schema design, resolvers, DataLoader for N+1 prevention, federation for microservices, and client integration with Apollo/urql. Key insight: GraphQL is a contract. The schema is the API documentation. Design it carefully.
