Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
cosmosdb_list_accountsA

List all Azure Cosmos DB accounts in the current subscription.

The subscription is resolved automatically — first from the AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID environment variable, then from the active 'az login' session. If neither is available, an error is returned with instructions.

cosmosdb_list_databasesA

List all databases in an Azure Cosmos DB account.

Returns a sorted JSON array of database names. The account can be given as a short name (e.g. my-cosmos-account) or as a full endpoint URL — the https:// prefix and .documents.azure.com suffix will be added automatically if missing.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_list_containersA

List all containers in a Cosmos DB database.

Returns a sorted JSON array of container names. The account can be given as a short name or full endpoint URL.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_get_container_infoA

Get metadata for a Cosmos DB container.

Returns partition key path, indexing policy, default TTL, unique key policy, and system properties (_self, _etag, _ts). The account can be given as a short name or full endpoint URL.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_query_itemsA

Run a SQL query against a Cosmos DB container and return results.

Uses Cosmos DB SQL API syntax, e.g.: SELECT * FROM c WHERE c.status = 'active' SELECT c.id, c.name FROM c ORDER BY c._ts DESC

max_items is capped at 1000. Cross-partition queries are enabled automatically. Use cosmosdb_query_items_to_file instead if the result set may be large.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_query_items_to_fileA

Run a SQL query against a Cosmos DB container and save results to a file.

Results are written to output_file as a JSON array. Only the item count is returned in context — use this variant when the result set may be large to avoid filling the context window. max_items is capped at 1000.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_count_itemsA

Count items in a Cosmos DB container, with an optional filter.

where accepts a SQL WHERE clause body (without the WHERE keyword), e.g.: c.status = 'active' c.createdAt > '2025-01-01'

If where is omitted, counts all items in the container. Returns a JSON object with a 'count' field.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_read_itemA

Read a single item from a Cosmos DB container by ID and partition key.

Returns the full item document as JSON. Both item_id and partition_key are required — Cosmos DB requires the partition key for efficient point reads.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_upsert_itemA

Insert or replace an item in a Cosmos DB container.

The item must include an 'id' field. If an item with the same id and partition key already exists it will be replaced; otherwise a new item is created. Returns the stored item document (including system fields) as JSON.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

cosmosdb_delete_itemA

Delete an item from a Cosmos DB container.

THIS IS DESTRUCTIVE — the item cannot be recovered after deletion. Both item_id and partition_key are required.

key_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Cosmos DB account key. If the variable is set, key-based auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_list_namespacesA

List all Azure Service Bus namespaces in the current subscription.

The subscription is resolved automatically — first from the AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID environment variable, then from the active 'az login' session. If neither is available, an error is returned with instructions.

servicebus_list_queuesA

List all queues in an Azure Service Bus namespace.

Returns a sorted JSON array of queue names. The namespace can be given as a short name (e.g. shdapps-dev1-eus2-sbn) or as a fully qualified hostname — the .servicebus.windows.net suffix will be appended automatically if missing.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_list_topicsA

List all topics in an Azure Service Bus namespace.

Returns a sorted JSON array of topic names. If include_subscriptions is true, returns a JSON object mapping each topic name to a sorted array of its subscription names. The namespace can be given as a short name or fully qualified hostname.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_send_messageA

Send a single message to an Azure Service Bus queue or topic.

The namespace can be given as a short name or fully qualified hostname.

scheduled_enqueue_time accepts an ISO 8601 string (e.g. '2026-03-05T10:00:00Z'). If provided, the message will be enqueued at that time rather than immediately.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_send_batchA

Send multiple messages to an Azure Service Bus queue or topic in a single batch.

Each message in the 'messages' array should have:

  • body (string, required): the message content

  • session_id (string, optional)

  • correlation_id (string, optional)

  • application_properties (object, optional): key/value map of custom properties

  • scheduled_enqueue_time (string, optional): ISO 8601 time to enqueue the message

The entire batch is delivered in a single send operation. Useful for seeding test data.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_peek_messagesA

Non-destructively peek at messages in an Azure Service Bus queue.

Messages are not locked or consumed — this is a read-only operation. Returns message bodies and metadata (sequence number, enqueue time, properties). max_count is capped at 100. For session-enabled queues, provide a session_id to peek a specific session. If session_id is omitted on a session-enabled queue, the next available session is accepted, peeked, and immediately released. Use servicebus_peek_messages_to_file instead if message bodies may be large.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_peek_messages_to_fileA

Non-destructively peek at messages in an Azure Service Bus queue, saving bodies to a file.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_peek_dlqA

Messages are not locked or consumed — this is a read-only operation. Returns message bodies, dead letter reason, error description, and other metadata. max_count is capped at 100. Use servicebus_peek_dlq_to_file instead if message bodies may be large.

connection_string_env_var: name of the environment variable holding the Service Bus connection string. If the variable is set, connection-string auth is used; otherwise DefaultAzureCredential is used.

servicebus_peek_dlq_to_fileB

Non-destructively peek at messages in the dead letter queue for an Azure Service Bus queue, saving bodies to a file.
