What this skill does

Assesses workloads on AWS, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, Heroku, and Spring platforms, then converts supported code and configuration for Azure. It produces an assessment report and migrated files in a separate folder, leaving the source unchanged. Best for Development teams moving supported cloud workloads to Azure and wanting an assessed, code-focused migration.

Add Azure Cloud Migrate to your agent

Review the source and files first. When you are ready, copy the prompt instruction or use the CLI command supported by your environment.

Install with a prompt

Paste this into a compatible coding agent:

add this skill "azure-cloud-migrate" from https://github.com/microsoft/azure-skills

Install with the CLI

Run this command in a controlled environment after reviewing the repository:

npx skills add https://github.com/microsoft/azure-skills --skill azure-cloud-migrate

Skill instructions

Azure Cloud Migrate

This skill handles assessment and code migration of existing cloud workloads to Azure.

Rules

  1. Follow phases sequentially — do not skip
  2. Generate assessment before any code migration
  3. Load the scenario reference and follow its rules
  4. Use mcp_azure_mcp_get_azure_bestpractices and mcp_azure_mcp_documentation MCP tools
  5. Use the latest supported runtime for the target service
  6. Destructive actions require ask_user — functions global-rules | app-service global-rules
  7. Report progress to user — During long-running operations (deployments, image pushes), provide resource-level status updates so the user is never left waiting without feedback — see workflow-details.md
  8. Audit service discovery in app code — Kubernetes DNS names (e.g., http://order-service:3001) do not resolve in Container Apps. During assessment, scan source code for hardcoded hostnames/ports in HTTP clients and flag them for env-var-driven URL injection

No matching scenario? Use mcp_azure_mcp_documentation and mcp_azure_mcp_get_azure_bestpractices tools.

Output Directory

All output goes to <workspace-root-basename>-azure/ at workspace root, where <workspace-root-basename> is the name of the top-level workspace directory itself (NOT a subdirectory within it). Never modify the source directory.

Steps

  1. Create <workspace-root-basename>-azure/ at workspace root
  2. Assess — Analyze source, map services, generate report using the scenario-specific assessment guide → functions assessment | app-service assessment
  3. Migrate — Convert code/config using the scenario-specific migration guide → functions code-migration | app-service code-migration
  4. Ask User — "Migration complete. Test locally or deploy to Azure?"
  5. Hand off to azure-prepare for infrastructure, testing, and deployment

Track progress in migration-status.md — see workflow-details.md.
