Remote Work & Azure Offloading FAQs

Question 1

Can I specify a specific Azure region for execution?

Accepted Answer

Question 2

How does the skill determine the size of the Azure VM?

The skill analyzes your task description for keywords like 'simple,' 'complex,' or 'intensive' to automatically recommend a VM size ranging from 8GB to 256GB of RAM.

Question 3

How do I retrieve my code changes after remote execution?

Accepted Answer

Once the task is complete, the skill creates a remote Git branch within the 'remote-exec/' namespace, which you can then fetch and merge into your local repository.

Is it safe to use this skill with repositories containing secrets?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes a safety check that blocks remote execution if hardcoded secrets are detected, prompting you to use .env files or environment variables instead.

In the event of a timeout, the Azure VM is preserved for inspection, allowing you to connect manually using 'azlin connect' to investigate logs and state.
