foundry-sdk SKILL.md skillA

foundry-sdk from jnpiyush/agentx is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/foundry-sdk@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Implement agentic applications with the Microsoft Foundry SDKs. Use when coding against Microsoft Foundry project clients, agent operations, evaluations, datasets, indexes, tracing, or SDK-driven tool wiring rather than only high-level architecture guidance.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Foundry SDK

> WHEN: Writing implementation code against Microsoft Foundry SDKs or Azure AI Projects clients for agents, evaluations, datasets, indexes, connections, tracing, or SDK-managed tools.

## When to Use

- Creating agents programmatically from a Foundry project client
- Wiring Foundry tools such as file search, MCP, Azure AI Search, or Azure Functions
- Running evaluation jobs, datasets, and indexes from code
- Listing or validating model deployments and project connections
- Enabling SDK-level tracing and Azure Monitor observability

## Decision Tree

```
Working with Microsoft Foundry?
+- Architecture and model strategy only?
|  - Use azure-foundry
+- Need implementation against SDK clients and APIs?
|  - Use foundry-sdk
+- Building agents with Agent Framework abstraction?
|  - Combine foundry-sdk with ai-agent-development
+- Need evaluation jobs, datasets, indexes, or connections?
|  - Use foundry-sdk with ai-evaluation
-- Need deployment/operational portal workflows?
   - Use Azure MCP operational guidance alongside this skill
```

## Core Rules

1. Use Entra ID and project endpoints; do not hardcode secrets or long-lived keys when SDK auth supports credentials.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/foundry-sdk@sha256:f3e41680195ba0ea

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
