MicrosoftDocs/mcpSkill
Find working code samples, verify API signatures, and fix Microsoft SDK errors using official docs. Use whenever the user is writing, debugging, or reviewing code that touches any Microsoft SDK, .NET library, Azure client library, or Microsoft API—even if they don't ask for a "reference." Catches hallucinated methods, wrong signatures, and deprecated patterns. If the task involves producing or fixing Microsoft-related code, this is the right skill.
Why this score
This repo hosts 4 skills, so its 1,949 stars are split between them (about 487 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 77/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 21, 2026 at commit f8ffde185dfd, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
