Add Azure App Insights telemetry to ASP.NET Core or Node.js webapps hosted in Azure.
Works with
Supports ASP.NET Core apps (with auto-instrumentation option for App Service) and Node.js apps
Guides you through creating an App Insights resource via Bicep templates or Azure CLI
Provides language-specific code modification guides for C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Python
Requires identifying the app's programming language, framework, and hosting environment before instrumentation begins
AI-first code editor with Composer
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionappinsights-instrumentationExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches appinsights-instrumentation from github/awesome-copilot and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate appinsights-instrumentation. Access via /appinsights-instrumentation in your agent's command palette.
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

This skill enables sending telemetry data of a webapp to Azure App Insights for better observability of the app's health.
Use this skill when the user wants to enable telemetry for their webapp.
The app in the workspace must be one of these kinds
Find out the (programming language, application framework, hosting) tuple of the application the user is trying to add telemetry support in. This determines how the application can be instrumented. Read the source code to make an educated guess. Confirm with the user on anything you don't know. You must always ask the user where the application is hosted (e.g. on a personal computer, in an Azure App Service as code, in an Azure App Service as container, in an Azure Container App, etc.).
If the app is a C# ASP.NET Core app hosted in Azure App Service, use AUTO guide to help user auto-instrument the app.
Manually instrument the app by creating the AppInsights resource and update the app's code.
Use one of the following options that fits the environment.
No matter which option you choose, recommend the user to create the App Insights resource in a meaningful resource group that makes managing resources easier. A good candidate will be the same resource group that contains the resources for the hosted app in Azure.
Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster
Draft PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder presentations
Example
Create executive summary of Q3 roadmap, monthly progress report, feature launch announcement
Save 3-5 hours/week on communication overhead

Steps
Common Pitfalls
✓ Do
✗ Don't
💡 Pro Tips
✓ Use when
Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.
✗ Avoid when
Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.
