What it does

  • Azure MCP server configured and authenticated
  • GitHub MCP server configured and authenticated
  • Target GitHub repository identified
  • Azure resources deployed (IaC files optional but helpful)
  • Prefer Azure MCP tools (azmcp-) over direct Azure CLI when available
  • Execute azmcp-bestpractices-get to get some of the latest Azure optimization guidelines. This may not cover all scenarios but provides a foundation.
  • Use these practices to inform subsequent analysis and recommendations as much as possible
