Azure Functions

This one pulls Azure Functions documentation on demand when you're building serverless apps, troubleshooting runtime errors, or configuring triggers and bindings. It covers the practical stuff: diagnosing AZFD/AZFW error codes, setting up HTTP and queue triggers, working with Durable Functions workflows, securing endpoints with VNets and managed identity, and deploying through containers or CI/CD pipelines. The skill indexes topics by category with line ranges, then fetches current Microsoft docs over the network when you need details. Useful when you're past the basics and need to debug storage connection issues, figure out scaling limits across Consumption and Flex plans, or wire up integrations with Event Grid, Cosmos DB, or OpenAI bindings without hunting through docs yourself.
