# Azure Lighthouse Skill This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Lighthouse. Covers decision making, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities. ## How to Use This Skill > **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](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](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/mcp/blob/main/README.md) This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content: - **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown. - **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown. ## Category Index | Category | Lines | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| | Decision Making | L33-L39 | Guidance on when and how to use Azure Lighthouse: multi-tenant enterprise setups, ISV SaaS patterns, comparing Lighthouse vs managed apps, and designing Managed Service offers. | | Security | L40-L47 | Managing secure access in Azure Lighthouse: roles, tenants, AOBO, PIM eligible authorizations, and recommended security controls/practices for cross-tenant management. | | Configuration | L48-L60 | Configuring and managing Azure Lighthouse delegations: onboarding via ARM/policy, updating/removing access, deploying/using policies (incl. built-ins), remediation with managed identities, and monitoring changes. | | Integrations & Coding Patterns | L61-L68 | Cross-tenant integration patterns for managing Arc servers, Sentinel workspaces, Migrate projects, and Monitor Logs at scale using Azure Lighthouse. | | Deployment | L69-L72 | Guidance for packaging, publishing, and managing Azure Lighthouse managed service offers in Azure Marketplace, including requirements, steps, and configuration details. | ### Decision Making | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Apply Azure Lighthouse in ISV SaaS scenarios | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/isv-scenarios | | Choose between Azure Lighthouse and managed applications | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/managed-applications | | Design Managed Service offers for Azure Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/managed-services-offers | ### Security | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Apply CSP AOBO and Lighthouse security controls | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/cloud-solution-provider | | Implement recommended security practices for Azure Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/recommended-security-practices | | Use tenants, users, and roles with Azure Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/concepts/tenants-users-roles | | Configure eligible authorizations with Azure Lighthouse and PIM | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/create-eligible-authorizations | ### Configuration | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Configure policy remediation with managed identities via Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/deploy-policy-remediation | | Monitor Azure Lighthouse delegation changes via activity logs | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/monitor-delegation-changes | | Onboard customers to Azure Lighthouse with ARM | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/onboard-customer | | Delegate all subscriptions in a management group with policy | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/onboard-management-group | | Deploy Azure Policy across tenants with Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/policy-at-scale | | Remove Azure Lighthouse delegations and access | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/remove-delegation | | Update Azure Lighthouse delegations and role assignments | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/update-delegation | | Use Azure Lighthouse ARM templates and samples | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/samples/ | | Use built-in Azure Policy definitions for Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/samples/policy-reference | ### Integrations & Coding Patterns | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Integrate Azure Lighthouse with Azure Arc at scale | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/manage-hybrid-infrastructure-arc | | Manage Microsoft Sentinel workspaces at scale with Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/manage-sentinel-workspaces | | Manage Azure Migrate projects across tenants with Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/migration-at-scale | | Use Azure Monitor Logs across tenants via Lighthouse | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/monitor-at-scale | ### Deployment | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Publish Azure Lighthouse Managed Service offers | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lighthouse/how-to/publish-managed-services-offers |
