Routes Azure VM and Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS) requests to the right workflow.
Disambiguate with azure-prepare: if the user wants to deploy an application (Docker service, web app, API, serverless workload), route to azure-prepare. vm-creator is for bare VM/VMSS infrastructure only.
Azure compute intent?
├── Recommend / compare / price a VM or VMSS → VM Recommender
├── Create / provision / deploy a VM or VMSS → VM Creator
├── Can't connect / RDP / SSH / port refused → VM Troubleshooter

Routing rule: read the matched workflow file before any reference file. The workflow owns the step-by-step guidance; references are looked up on demand.
| Workflow | File | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| VM Recommender | vm-recommender.md | User asks which VM/VMSS to choose, wants pricing, or wants to compare options |
| VM Creator | vm-creator.md | User wants to provision a bare VM or VMSS (not an app deployment) |
| VM Troubleshooter | vm-troubleshooter.md | User can't connect, RDP/SSH refused, black screen, needs password reset |
| Capacity Reservation | capacity-reservation.md | User needs to reserve / guarantee VM capacity (CRG create / associate / disassociate) |
| Essential Machine Management | essential-machine-management.md | User asks about EMM / machine enrollment / monitor |
