What Azure Sdk Python is
Azure Sdk Python is a plugin published in the microsoft/skills repository on GitHub, which has about 3.1k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Skills, MCP servers, Custom Agents, Agents.md for SDKs to ground Coding Agents”
A plugin is a package that bundles skills, slash commands, subagents, hooks, and MCP connectors so they install together. Plugins are plain files with a manifest at .claude-plugin/plugin.json, and they work in both Claude Code and Claude Cowork.
Installing Azure Sdk Python adds everything it ships in one step. Connectors inside a plugin still need to be connected separately, and hooks and subagents only run in Cowork and Claude Code, not in regular chat.
How to install Azure Sdk Python
Claude Code
- Add the repository as a plugin marketplace: claude plugin marketplace add microsoft/skills
- Install the plugin: claude plugin install azure-sdk-python@<marketplace-name>, using the marketplace name from the repository's .claude-plugin/marketplace.json.
- Restart the session if the new skills or commands don't appear straight away.
Claude Cowork

- Enter microsoft/skills (the owner/repo shorthand works for GitHub).
- Find Azure Sdk Python in the list, click Install, then connect any connectors it needs from its Connectors tab.
New to extending Cowork? Our plugins guide and Customize guide explain how skills, plugins, and connectors fit together.

Install
npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-sdk-python/plugin install azure-sdk-python@skillsBefore you install
- Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
- Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
- Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
- Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
- Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
