Routes Azure VM and Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS) requests to the right workflow.
When to Use This Skill
- User wants to recommend, compare, or price a VM or VMSS
- User wants to create, provision, or deploy a VM or VMSS
- User asks about Capacity Reservation Groups (CRG) — reserve, guarantee capacity, pre-provision
- User asks about Essential Machine Management (EMM) — machine enrollment, monitor
Disambiguate with azure-prepare: if the user wants to deploy an application (Docker service, web app, API, serverless workload), route to azure-prepare. vm-creator is for bare VM/VMSS infrastructure only.
Routing
Mandatory workflow-first routing: never route directly to references/* files. First classify the user intent below, open the matched workflow file, then load only the reference files that workflow requests. Reference files are supporting material, not entry points. If the intent is unclear, ask a clarifying question to disambiguate between the workflows.
