foundry-iq
Foundry IQ knowledge bases. WHEN: make local or Blob documents searchable; create/diagnose KBs; triage unsupported connectors or multi-source KB creation/reconfiguration; connect existing KB to agents (including multi-source KBs); create/reuse a Search service; retrieve from an existing knowledge base with citations; no brand words needed. Read its procedure before query/target questions. NOT: other KB providers, repository-file search, classic Azure AI Search index/query/app work, generic agent creation.

This skill provides a suite of tools for managing Microsoft Foundry IQ knowledge bases and Azure AI Search services. It is engineered with a strong emphasis on security, incorporating mechanisms such as OS-level resource limits and Python audit hooks to isolate document processing tasks. Additionally, it features robust handling of sensitive data through active redaction and input validation to prevent the exposure of credentials.

What does this agent skill do?
Foundry IQ
Read one procedure before questions/actions; invocation is not a read.
Read the owning procedure before blocked/unsupported responses too.
Before mutation plans/approval, successfully read its required pre-action references, selected
branches only. Do not reload successful reads. On failure, try only permitted
bounded exact-path reads with any supported reader; never bypass restrictions
or search broadly. If still unavailable: blocked: reference-unavailable, name
missing references and inability to plan. Never invent requirements/plans.
Failures first.
Cleanup and receipt-backed execution go directly to their lifecycle/producer owner; do not reopen Search intake, provisioning or hardening.
Before expensive service discovery, reuse supplied resource/intent; otherwise ask one early USE EXISTING / FIND CANDIDATES / CREATE NEW choice. Only FIND enumerates; supplied identity uses exact/minimum scoped resolution. CREATE checks its proposed name, not existing-service inventories. Preserve these answers across source/KB/CU/model handoffs; selection is not write approval.
Searchable docs: KB + validated retrieval. Confirm intent once; KS-only must be explicit. Child success is not KB completion. Unclear/compound/mode/completion: read.
Route by requested operation, not existing KB source count. Connecting an existing KB with two or more sources, without changing the KB, uses Connect. Read-only operations use their owning procedure and actual helper constraints; this does not add retrieval modes or supported source kinds. Explicit unsupported provisioning or multi-source KB creation/reconfiguration uses Diagnose and stops before discovery, even when connecting an agent is also requested. Do not silently execute only the supported part of a compound request. If existing-KB connection versus KB creation/reconfiguration is unclear, read intent-routing and clarify that scope before Azure discovery. Never infer KB mutation.
| Outcome | Read |
|---|---|
| Cleanup | Plan cleanup |
| Failure/drift | Diagnose |
| Unsupported connector provisioning / multi-source KB creation or reconfiguration | Diagnose |
| Connect | Connect |
| Read KB | Query |
| Search only | Search |
| File KS only | File |
| Blob/ADLS KS only | Blob |
| Searchable/KB | KB |
Generic agents: microsoft-foundry.
Reads: no approval; approve unchanged plans before writes.
Hide hashes. No Search/Storage keys, scope widening, guessed identity/boundaries,
drift repair or joint cleanup/creation approval. Acceptance != success.
How can the creator link this skill?
