Azure Quotas
This handles Azure quota checks and capacity planning before you deploy resources. It wraps the `az quota` CLI extension to show limits, current usage, and available capacity across regions and resource providers. The included scripts give you a single call to compare vCPU quotas, public IPs, or any other resource across multiple regions, which is useful when you're picking where to stand up new infrastructure. One gotcha it addresses well: ARM resource types don't map 1:1 to quota resource names, so it includes discovery workflows to find the right names. The docs explicitly warn against the REST API and MCP server for quota data since they return misleading "No Limit" values.

Azure Quotas - Service Limits & Capacity Management
AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE — Follow these instructions exactly for quota management and capacity validation.
Overview
What are Azure Quotas?
Azure quotas (also called service limits) are the maximum number of resources you can deploy in a subscription. Quotas:
- Prevent accidental over-provisioning
- Ensure fair resource distribution across Azure
- Represent available capacity in each region
- Can be increased (adjustable quotas) or are fixed (non-adjustable)
Key Concept: Quotas = Resource Availability
If you don't have quota, you cannot deploy resources. Always check quotas when planning deployments or selecting regions.
