# foundry-models (stub)

> **Minimal stub** — pointer to the upstream [`microsoft/skills`](https://github.com/microsoft/skills)
> skill. Install on demand; do not vendor the full body (avoids context rot).

**Install the full skill:**

```bash
npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill foundry-models
```

**Maps to:** Scenario model selection and the AI Grounding model-comparison scripts.

**Before implementing:** use the `foundry-mcp` MCP server to browse the live model catalog and the
`azure` MCP server for capacity/quota in your region. Compare model families on cost/latency/quality,
write effective system instructions, then reproduce Playground behavior in code via the Inference SDK.
