How long does the integration take?

Change one base URL in an OpenAI-compatible client, or install the Python or TypeScript SDK; the quickstart routes a first request in a few minutes.

Will this lock us into another vendor?

No. The router is Apache-2.0 open source, your provider keys stay yours, and the API is OpenAI-compatible, so leaving is a change of base URL.

What happens when a provider fails?

The router falls back to the next model your policy allows and records the fallback in the trace, so an outage costs a retry, not an incident.

Azure Portal Search Link Builder

Quick Reference

Item	Value
Script	`references/Invoke-PortalSearchNav.ps1`
Resource map	`references/resource-types.json`
Prerequisite	`Az.Accounts` PowerShell module
Auth	Interactive Microsoft sign-in (`Connect-AzAccount`), or device-code with `-UseDeviceAuthentication`

When to Use This Skill

User asks to find where in the Azure portal to perform an operation on a supported Container Service, Arc-enabled Kubernetes, or Compute resource.
User wants a portal deep link for a specific blade/menu item.
User provides a resource URL or ARM resource ID and a natural-language search query.

Workflow

Collect resource link (portal URL or bare ARM resource ID) and search query from the user.
Run references/Invoke-PortalSearchNav.ps1 -ResourceUrl '<link>' -Query '<query>'.
The script signs in (browser by default; pass -UseDeviceAuthentication in headless/CLI environments), calls the search API, and prints portal deep links always rooted at https://portal.azure.com.

See references/README.md for full parameter reference and API details.

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Fix
Resource type not enabled	`armProvider` not in `references/resource-types.json`	Confirm the type is in the enabled-provider list
401 from API	Invalid token, or wrong tenant selected	Re-run and select the account with access to the target subscription's tenant
Empty results	No matching navigation item for the query	Try a different search term
`Az.Accounts` not found	Module not installed	`Install-Module Az.Accounts -Scope CurrentUser`
Browser sign-in fails (no window handle)	Headless/CLI environment	Re-run with `-UseDeviceAuthentication`

Install azure-search-nav and it becomes one more candidate the router can pick - when it fits.

A listing is a routing target with a manifest: what it does, which domains it covers, what it costs and who publishes it. Once installed it sits beside your own models and tools, is scored like any other candidate for each request, and shows up in the trace when it wins. Ratings come from workspaces that installed it, one per account.
