Investigate failing Azure apps with your SRE Agent. Analyze KQL with your own sources, read your Inbox, and prepare Teams updates from the same chat.

Install

In GitHub Copilot, open Customize → Plugins and install Azure SRE Agent from the awesome-copilot marketplace. If the marketplace is missing, add it first:

copilot plugin marketplace add github/awesome-copilot
copilot plugin install azure-sre-agent@awesome-copilot

Reopen Copilot and start a new chat. Requires Azure CLI signed in and access to the resources you use.

Try it

Ask Open SRE Agent Canvas. Choose an agent and app, then Diagnose with SRE Agent, or open an existing investigation. Browse Threads and inspect the selected Active thread. For a shared agent, use External URL or Resource ID. The star saves Favorites without connecting.

Choose Connect This Thread to continue an investigation in this Copilot conversation. For your own sources, open Connectors → Add Connector; no SRE Agent is required.

What you can do

  • Investigations: diagnose apps, read evidence, start a New thread, and continue a connected investigation from chat.
  • KQL: open an exact query in chat, explain or refine it, then approve a bounded read against your own Kusto, Logs or workspace-backed App Insights.
  • Private Connectors: reuse authorized cloud connections or registered MCP providers. Kusto also accepts a known cluster URL and database.
  • Inbox and Teams: read your Inbox without changing mail; preview Teams channel updates and real mentions before approving a post.
  • Evidence sharing: review the destination investigation and redacted results before sending. Sharing results does not grant source access.
  • Automation: inspect scheduled tasks and HTTP triggers.

Opening a query or adding a connector does not read content, send messages, or approve an SRE execution.

Copilot CLI

Compatible Copilot CLI extension runtimes expose this plugin's registered sre_personal_* tools directly, without Azure MCP. The visual panel and SRE investigation actions need a canvas-capable host. See usage and CLI support for the supported tool path and limits.

Usage data

Usage telemetry is enabled by default to help improve this plugin. It sends basic usage data and, when available, your numeric GitHub user ID to the usage metrics service. Prompts, tool inputs/outputs and credentials are excluded.

You can disable usage telemetry. Copilot's own telemetry is separate.

Prompts to try
