Best For Diagnosing SDK connection, auth, and message processing issues

When to Use This Skill

  • SDK connection failures, auth errors, or AMQP link errors
  • Idle timeout, connection inactivity, or slow reconnection after disconnect
  • AMQP link detach or detach-forced errors
  • Message lock lost, message lock expired, lock renewal failures, or batch lock timeouts

  2. Check resource health — Use mcpazuremcp_resourcehealth to verify the namespace is healthy
  3. Review the error message — Match against language-specific troubleshooting guide
  4. Look up documentation — Use mcpazuremcp_documentation to search Microsoft Learn for the error or topic
  5. Check configuration — Verify connection string, entity name, consumer group
  6. Recommend fix — Apply remediation, citing documentation found
