Install Azure-focused GitHub Copilot plugins that help you build Hosted Skills, inspect Azure resources, diagnose apps with SRE Agent, review cost health, and create canvas apps.
Add the production marketplace once:
copilot plugin marketplace add microsoft/azure-dev-toolsThen install the plugin you need:
copilot plugin install azure-functions-hosted-skills@azure-dev-tools
copilot plugin install azure-resources-query@azure-dev-tools
copilot plugin install azure-cost-health-check@azure-dev-tools
copilot plugin install azure-sre-agent@azure-dev-tools
copilot plugin install canvas-authoring@azure-dev-toolsYou can also open GitHub Copilot Customize > Plugins, use the marketplace
gear to add microsoft/azure-dev-tools (marketplace ID azure-dev-tools), and
select a plugin. Fully quit and reopen GitHub Copilot after installation, then
start a fresh chat.
The marketplace follows this repository's default branch. Immutable tags are the reproducible install points:
| Plugin | What it does | Production status |
|---|---|---|
| Azure Functions Hosted Skills | Build and run local Hosted Skills or invoke supported functions in an existing Function App. | Marketplace candidate 0.5.3 is on main; its immutable 0.5.3 tag is not published. azure-functions-hosted-skills-latest still points to 0.5.2. |
| Azure Resources Query | Find and inspect Azure resources with read-only Resource Graph queries. | Marketplace candidate 0.1.3 is on main; its immutable 0.1.3 tag is not published. azure-resources-query-latest still points to 0.1.2. |
| Canvas Authoring | Add toolkit setup and starter apps to the native create-canvas workflow. |
0.1.1 is tagged; canvas-authoring-latest points to that release. Skill-only plugin, with no canvas panel. |
| Azure Cost Health Check | Review spend, forecasts, budgets, alerts, recommendations, and AI billing. | Marketplace candidate 0.4.4 is under review; its immutable 0.4.4 tag is not published. azure-cost-health-check-latest still points to 0.4.3. |
| Azure SRE Agent | Connect to your SRE Agent, diagnose failing apps, and investigate threads. | Marketplace candidate 0.2.6; its immutable tag is not published yet. |
Marketplace installation and native App canvas discovery must be confirmed in GitHub Copilot after the production PR merges; a source package alone does not establish that the listing is live.
Hosted Skills

Resources Query
Show my Function Apps in Development.
Cost Health Check
Open Azure Cost Health Check in real mode for my subscription.
