Frequently asked questions

What is the Azure CLI MCP server?

The Azure CLI MCP server is an Cloud Platforms Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI agents execute Azure commands for cloud management. It exposes Azure CLI's capabilities as tools the AI can call directly from your editor or CLI.

How do I install Azure CLI MCP with Claude Code?

The fastest way is the MCPizy CLI: run `mcpizy install azure-cli` and MCPizy will add the server to your `.claude.json` automatically. You can also install it manually by adding an entry under `mcpServers` in `.claude.json` with the command `npx -y azure-cli-mcp` and restarting Claude Code.

Is Azure CLI MCP free?

Yes. The Azure CLI MCP server is free and open source. You may still need a Azure CLI account or API key to connect the server to the underlying service, but the MCP layer itself has no MCPizy subscription cost.

Does Azure CLI MCP work with Cursor and Windsurf?

Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor (via `.cursor/mcp.json`), Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot Chat, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. The same install command targets all of them; only the config file path differs.

What can I do with Azure CLI MCP?

Once installed, your AI agent can execute Azure commands for cloud management directly inside your conversation. Typical use cases include asking Claude Code or Cursor to run Azure CLI operations, inspect results, chain Azure CLI with other MCP servers (see our Workflow Recipes), and automate repetitive cloud platforms tasks without leaving your editor.
