Design scalable and cost-effective Azure architectures using Bicep infrastructure-as-code templates. The tool helps gather requirements, recommend patterns, generate IaC templates, optimize costs, and configure CI/CD pipelines for services like AKS, App Service, and Cosmos DB.

Design, analyze, and refine Azure infrastructure through natural language prompts, generate interactive architecture diagrams locally with bundled scripts, and produce deployable Bicep templates to automate infrastructure-as-code workflows.

Conducts a multistep preflight validation for Azure Bicep deployments, covering syntax checks, what-if previews, permission verification, and report generation so teams can confidently run azd or az deployments with known outcomes.

This agent guides users in selecting the optimal Azure role assignment that strictly adheres to the principle of least privilege. Given a set of desired permissions, it utilizes specialized tools to either identify a suitable built-in role or generate a custom role definition. Finally, it provides actionable code snippets, including CLI commands and Bicep templates, ensuring proper and secure role assignment.

Automates updating Azure Verified Modules referenced in Bicep files to their latest released versions, guiding scan, version comparison, documentation checks, and validation workflows while limiting reports to non-breaking changes.

Design, create, review, migrate, or troubleshoot Azure Developer CLI (azd) projects using current Microsoft guidance. Use for azd, azure.yaml, AZD templates, Bicep or Terraform under infra, AZD environments and secrets, hooks, deployment workflows, and azd-managed CI/CD.

Learn to deploy Azure infrastructure using ARM templates and Bicep. Bicep offers cleaner syntax and modular deployment capabilities compared to raw JSON. This skill covers creating virtual networks, virtual machines, and storage accounts with managed identities. It includes managing dependencies and validating deployments before execution. Essential for DevOps engineers working with Azure-native Infrastructure as Code.

Automate deployment of containerized frontend and backend applications to Azure Container Apps using Azure Developer CLI. Supports remote builds, managed identity, Bicep infrastructure, and idempotent hooks. Ensures secure authorization and environment variable management for production environments.
