This skill provides expert guidance for Azure AI Immersive Reader. Covers best practices, limits & quotas, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.
> IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., L35-L120), use read_file with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., security.md), use read_file on the linked reference file
> IMPORTANT for Agent: If metadata.generated_at is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If mcp_microsoftdocs tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide
This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:
mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch with query string from=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown.fetch_webpage with query string from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.| Category | Lines | Description |
|----------|-------|-------------|
| Best Practices | L33-L37 | Guidance on improving Immersive Reader performance by caching authentication tokens, including token reuse patterns and reducing auth overhead. |
| Limits & Quotas | L38-L42 | Supported languages and feature availability for Immersive Reader (e.g., which languages work with read-aloud, translation, and other capabilities). |
| Security | L43-L49 | Configuring Immersive Reader security: creating the resource with Entra auth, managing Entra role assignments, and setting cookie policy and user consent. |
| Configuration | L50-L56 | Configuring Immersive Reader behavior: read-aloud voice/speed, translation languages and behavior, and storing/managing per-user reading and language preferences. |
| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L57-L66 | Implementing Immersive Reader in web/iOS apps: launch flows, JS SDK usage, HTML/MathML prep, custom buttons, multi-resource setups, and Vision Read integration. |
