Pipeline Troubleshooting
MCP Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_analyze_pipeline | Analyze pipeline failure |
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_verify_setup | Verify local environment |
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_package_build_code | Reproduce build locally |
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_package_run_check | Run validation checks |
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_package_pack | Create SDK packages |
Prerequisites: azure-sdk-mcp server required. Without MCP, view pipeline logs in Azure DevOps UI.
Steps
- Identify — Get build ID, run
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_analyze_pipeline. Categorize failure. - Analyze — See failure patterns for common causes.
- Reproduce — Verify setup, then run
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_package_build_codeorazure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_package_run_check. - Fix — Apply fixes for code or TypeSpec issues.
- Verify — Confirm fix locally, push, monitor re-run.
Examples
- "My pipeline build 12345 failed, help debug it"
- "Reproduce CI failure locally"
Troubleshooting
If azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_analyze_pipeline returns no data, verify build ID and MCP. Without MCP, check pipeline logs in Azure DevOps UI.
