microsoft-docs
Search official Microsoft documentation across Azure, .NET, Agent Framework, Aspire, VS Code, and GitHub.
- Primary tool covers learn.microsoft.com via three commands: search concepts and guides, find code samples by language, and fetch full page content
- Includes CLI fallback (
mslearncommand) when MCP server is unavailable, with JSON output option for scripting - Routes Aspire, VS Code, GitHub, and Agent Framework queries to specialized tools (Aspire MCP, Context7) since their docs live outside Learn
- Supports specific queries with version, intent, and language context for precise results across polyglot Microsoft ecosystems
