Microsoft's Foundry Toolkit is a VS Code extension that brings the entire AI development workflow into one place. It provides access to a model catalog (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama, and more), an interactive prompt playground, low-code and pro-code agent creation, an agent inspector for debugging, fine-tuning, evaluation metrics, telemetry, and deployment to Azure — all without leaving the editor. The extension also integrates with GitHub Copilot via a Foundry skill that guides developers through setup and agent development. The walkthrough covers installing the extension, connecting an Azure subscription, creating a Foundry project and resource group, and navigating the extension's resource management panel.
