Tools

Tool	Use For
`microsoft_docs_search`	Find documentation—concepts, guides, tutorials, configuration
`microsoft_docs_fetch`	Get full page content (when search excerpts aren't enough)

When to Use

Understanding concepts — "How does Cosmos DB partitioning work?"
Learning a service — "Azure Functions overview", "Container Apps architecture"
Finding tutorials — "quickstart", "getting started", "step-by-step"
Configuration options — "App Service configuration settings"
Limits & quotas — "Azure OpenAI rate limits", "Service Bus quotas"
Best practices — "Azure security best practices"

Query Effectiveness

Good queries are specific:

# ❌ Too broad
"Azure Functions"
✅ Specific

"Azure Functions Python v2 programming model"
"Cosmos DB partition key design best practices"
"Container Apps scaling rules KEDA"

Include context:

Version when relevant (
```
.NET 8
```
,
```
EF Core 8
```
)
Task intent (
```
quickstart
```
,
```
tutorial
```
,
```
overview
```
,
```
limits
```
)
Platform for multi-platform docs (
```
Linux
```
,
```
Windows
```
)

When to Fetch Full Page

Fetch after search when:

Tutorials — need complete step-by-step instructions
Configuration guides — need all options listed
Deep dives — user wants comprehensive coverage
Search excerpt is cut off — full context needed

Why Use This

Accuracy — live docs, not training data that may be outdated
Completeness — tutorials have all steps, not fragments
Authority — official Microsoft documentation
