Broken foundry-managed-skills symlink in Microsoft Foundry plugin

Author: charendtCreated Jun 26, 2026Updated Aug 18, 2026

Problem

The foundry-managed-skills skill symlink under the Microsoft Foundry plugin appears to be broken, so the foundry-managed-skills skill cannot be used from the plugin.

Broken symlink:

.github/plugins/microsoft-foundry/skills/foundry-managed-skills -> ../../azure-skills/skills/foundry-managed-skills

Reference from blame: https://github.com/microsoft/skills/blame/d90b88817b73e328fa73f4d0a413aa96d10a4d0d/.github/plugins/microsoft-foundry/skills/foundry-managed-skills

GitHub API reports this path as a symlink with target:

../../azure-skills/skills/foundry-managed-skills

Impact

Because the symlink target no longer resolves, consumers cannot use the foundry-managed-skills skill through .github/plugins/microsoft-foundry/skills/.
