Summary
The Azure Compliance agent skill provides comprehensive security auditing by assessing Azure resource configurations against best practices, identifying misconfigured or orphaned resources, and monitoring Key Vault keys, secrets, and certificates for expiration. This agent skill is designed for DevOps engineers, security professionals, and Azure administrators who need to ensure their cloud environments adhere to compliance standards and best practices. It is an emerging or highly specialized skill with limited adoption so far within the o-mega.ai registry. This agent skill leverages the `azqr` tool to conduct comprehensive Azure Quick Review scans, validating resource configurations against established best practices and identifying orphaned or misconfigured resources. Furthermore, it audits Key Vaults by listing and inspecting keys, secrets, and certificates to find expiring items or those lacking expiration dates. This skill is narrowly focused on auditing and compliance, and should not be used for resource deployment, cost analysis, or active security hardening.
Skill Definition
Quick Reference
| Property | Details |
|---|---|
| Best for | Compliance scans, security audits, Key Vault expiration checks |
| Primary capabilities | Comprehensive Resources Assessment, Key Vault Expiration Monitoring |
| MCP tools | azqr, subscription and resource group listing, Key Vault item inspection |
When to Use This Skill
- Run azqr or Azure Quick Review for compliance assessment
- Validate Azure resource configuration against best practices
- Identify orphaned or misconfigured resources
- Audit Key Vault keys, secrets, and certificates for expiration
Skill Activation Triggers
Activate this skill when user wants to:
- Check Azure compliance or best practices
- Assess Azure resources for configuration issues
- Run azqr or Azure Quick Review
- Identify orphaned or misconfigured resources
- Review Azure security posture
- "Show me expired certificates/keys/secrets in my Key Vault"
- "Check what's expiring in the next 30 days"
- "Audit my Key Vault for compliance"
- "Find secrets without expiration dates"
- "Check certificate expiration dates"
Prerequisites
- Authentication: user is logged in to Azure via
az login - Permissions to read resource configuration and Key Vault metadata

MCP Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
mcp_azure_mcp_extension_azqr | Run azqr compliance scans |
mcp_azure_mcp_subscription_list | List available subscriptions |
mcp_azure_mcp_group_list | List resource groups |

Assessment Workflow
- Select scope (subscription or resource group) for Comprehensive Resources Assessment.
- Run azqr and capture output artifacts.
- Analyze Scan Results and summarize findings and recommendations.
- Review Key Vault Expiration Monitoring output for keys, secrets, and certificates.
- Classify issues and propose remediation or fix steps for each finding.
Priority Classification
| Priority | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Critical | Immediate remediation required for high-impact exposure |
| High | Resolve within days to reduce risk |
| Medium | Plan a resolution in the next sprint |
| Low | Track and fix during regular maintenance |
Error Handling
| Error | Message | Remediation |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication required | "Please login" | Run az login and retry |
| Access denied | "Forbidden" | Confirm permissions and fix role assignments |
| Missing resource | "Not found" | Verify subscription and resource group selection |
Best Practices
- Run compliance scans on a regular schedule (weekly or monthly)
- Track findings over time and verify remediation effectiveness
- Separate compliance reporting from remediation execution
- Keep Key Vault expiration policies documented and enforced
