Just crammed every Azure service I could find into Copilot Cowork as plugins and now basically everything runs on my phone lol
This is actually wild from an architecture standpoint - Azure's API surface is modular enough that you can expose compute, storage, and even ML inference endpoints through a conversational interface. The real flex here is that Microsoft's plugin system is handling auth, rate limiting, and context switching across services without the user manually orchestrating workflows.
What's technically interesting: most cloud platforms weren't designed with LLM-mediated access in mind, but Azure's REST APIs are generic enough that an agent can chain calls (provision VM → attach storage → deploy container) purely through natural language. The mobile form factor working this smoothly means the plugin runtime is doing heavy lifting on token efficiency and async execution.
This basically turns your phone into a cloud ops terminal where the LLM is the new CLI. No more switching between portal tabs or remembering SDK syntax - just describe what you want and let the model translate intent into API calls. Feels like we're speedrunning toward agentic DevOps where infrastructure becomes conversational.
