What it does
|

Unified Azure cost-management skill: queries historical costs, forecasts future spending, and optimizes resources across subscriptions, resource groups, and tags to reduce waste.

Overview

Part of Microsoft's official Azure Skills Plugin — a 20-skill package paired with the Azure MCP Server (200+ tools, 40+ services) and Foundry MCP. The azure-cost skill unifies queries for past cost, forecasts future spending, and drives waste-reduction across subscriptions, resource groups, and tags.

Key Features

  • Historical cost analysis grouped by subscription, resource group, tag, or service
  • Forward-looking cost forecasts for budget planning
  • Optimization recommendations that surface wasted or idle resources
  • Works with the Azure MCP Server so queries run against live Azure billing data

Who is this for?

Engineering leads, FinOps teams, and platform owners chasing cloud cost efficiency on Azure. Especially valuable when investigating spike in monthly spend, planning next-quarter budgets, or hunting orphaned resources that escaped lifecycle policies.
