Microsoft SQL plugin for Grok Build
Microsoft SQL installable agent plugins for Azure SQL development, operations, local containers, migrations, and Fabric Database Hub workflows. The plugins package focused guidance for supported coding agents and development environments.
How to install Microsoft SQL in Grok Build
1. Add this repo as a plugin marketplace in Grok Build (once per computer):
grok plugin marketplace add microsoft/microsoft-sql2. Install the plugin:
grok plugin install microsoft-azuresqldb-container@microsoft/microsoft-sql --trustReview before you trust it. --trust lets this plugin's hooks, MCP servers and scripts run code on your computer. It's a community repo that neither xAI nor GrokStacks has reviewed, so read its code first.
This repo's marketplace has 5 plugins; we checked microsoft-azuresqldb-container, microsoft-sql, microsoft-sql-fdh. Install another the same way: grok plugin install <name>@microsoft/microsoft-sql --trust (names under 'What it contains'). Then start a new Grok session, or press r in /plugins, to load it.
Inside Grok Build: type /plugins, open the Marketplace tab, press a and add microsoft/microsoft-sql, then select microsoft-azuresqldb-container and press i.

What we checked: on Oct 18, 2026 it installed with grok 1.0.62 and Grok found 75 skills. That's an install check only: we haven't run it in a live Grok session.
