Azure Messaging SDK Troubleshooting
Quick Reference
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Services | Azure Event Hubs, Azure Service Bus |
| MCP Tools | mcp_azure_mcp_eventhubs, mcp_azure_mcp_servicebus |
| Best For | Diagnosing SDK connection, auth, and message processing issues |
When to Use This Skill
- SDK connection failures, auth errors, or AMQP link errors
- Idle timeout, connection inactivity, or slow reconnection after disconnect
- AMQP link detach or detach-forced errors
- Message lock lost, message lock expired, lock renewal failures, or batch lock timeouts
- Session lock lost, session lock expired, or session receiver errors
- Event processor or message handler stops processing
- Duplicate events or checkpoint offset resets
- SDK configuration questions (retry, prefetch, batch size, receive batch behavior)
MCP Tools
| Tool | Command | Use |
|------|---------|-----|
| mcp_azure_mcp_eventhubs | Namespace/hub ops | List namespaces, hubs, consumer groups |
| mcp_azure_mcp_servicebus | Queue/topic ops | List namespaces, queues, topics, subscriptions |
| mcp_azure_mcp_monitor | logs_query | Query diagnostic logs with KQL |
| mcp_azure_mcp_resourcehealth | get | Check service health status |
| mcp_azure_mcp_documentation | Doc search | Search Microsoft Learn for troubleshooting docs |
Diagnosis Workflow
- Identify the SDK and version — Check the prompt for SDK and version clues; if not stated, proceed with diagnosis and ask later if needed
- Check resource health — Use
mcp_azure_mcp_resourcehealthto verify the namespace is healthy - Review the error message — Match against language-specific troubleshooting guide
- Look up documentation — Use
mcp_azure_mcp_documentationto search Microsoft Learn for the error or topic - Check configuration — Verify connection string, entity name, consumer group
- Recommend fix — Apply remediation, citing documentation found
Connectivity Troubleshooting
See Service Troubleshooting Guide for ports, WebSocket fallback, IP firewall, private endpoints, and service tags.

Use when deploying an existing web application or API to an already-running Azure Kubernetes Service cluster. Detects the framework, generates a Dockerfile and Kubernetes manifests, validates against AKS Deployment Safeguards, and deploys with verification. WHEN: deploy app to AKS, deploy to existing AKS cluster, containerize app for Kubernetes, generate K8s manifests for Azure, set up CI/CD for AKS, my AKS deployment is failing safeguard checks, I have a Django/Express/Spring Boot app to run on AKS. DO NOT USE FOR: creating or provisioning an AKS cluster (use azure-kubernetes), assessing migration to AKS Automatic (use azure-kubernetes-automatic-readiness), or deploying to non-AKS targets like Web Apps, Container Apps, or Functions.
