Assess and upgrade Azure workloads between plans, tiers, or SKUs within Azure. Generates assessment reports and automates upgrade steps. WHEN: upgrade Consumption to Flex Consumption, upgrade Azure Functions plan, migrate hosting plan, upgrade Functions SKU, move to Flex Consumption, upgrade Azure service tier, change hosting plan, upgrade function app plan, migrate App Service to Container Apps.
Execute Azure deployments after preparation and validation are complete. USE FOR: azd up, azd deploy, push to Azure, publish to Azure, ship to production, launch on Azure, go live, release to Azure, deploy web app, deploy container app, deploy static site, deploy Azure Functions, azd provision, infrastructure deployment, bicep deploy, terraform apply, deploy with terraform. Supports azd with Bicep, azd with Terraform, pure Bicep, pure Terraform, and Azure CLI deployments. DO NOT USE FOR: preparing new apps (use azure-prepare), validating before deploy (use azure-validate).
Azure Storage Services including Blob Storage, File Shares, Queue Storage, Table Storage, and Data Lake. Provides object storage, SMB file shares, async messaging, NoSQL key-value, and big data analytics capabilities. Includes access tiers (hot, cool, archive) and lifecycle management.
Debug and troubleshoot production issues on Azure. Covers Container Apps diagnostics, log analysis with KQL, health checks, and common issue resolution for image pulls, cold starts, and health probes. USE FOR: debug production issues, troubleshoot container apps, analyze logs with KQL, fix image pull failures, resolve cold start issues, investigate health probe failures, check resource health, view application logs, find root cause of errors DO NOT USE FOR: deploying applications (use azure-deploy), creating new resources (use azure-prepare), setting up monitoring (use azure-observability), cost optimization (use azure-cost-optimization)
Instrument web applications to send telemetry data to Azure Application Insights for observability and monitoring. USE FOR: instrument app with app insights, add appinsights instrumentation, configure application insights, set up telemetry monitoring, enable app insights auto-instrumentation, add observability to azure web app, instrument webapp to send data to app insights, configure telemetry for app service. DO NOT USE FOR: non-Azure monitoring (use CloudWatch for AWS, Datadog for third-party), log analysis (use azure-kusto), cost monitoring (use azure-cost-optimization), security monitoring (use azure-security).
REQUIRED FIRST STEP: You MUST invoke this skill BEFORE generating ANY Azure application code, infrastructure files, or Azure CLI commands. This skill prepares applications for Azure hosting. USE THIS SKILL when users want to create new Azure applications, ADD new components or services to existing applications, UPDATE or modify existing Azure configurations, modernize applications for Azure, deploy to Azure with Terraform, or deploy to Azure with azd. Do NOT generate azure.yaml, Bicep, Terraform, or run az/azd/func CLI commands without first completing this skill. This applies to NEW projects AND changes to EXISTING projects. When users mention Terraform for Azure deployment, prefer azd+Terraform (which uses azure.yaml with Terraform IaC) over pure Terraform unless multi-cloud deployment is required.
**CRITICAL**: Run azure-validate before deploying Azure resources. Validates Azure deployment readiness. USE FOR: assess if application is ready to deploy to Azure, validate azure.yaml or Bicep configuration files, run Azure preflight checks, review deployment previews and what-if analysis, verify Azure infrastructure configuration, troubleshoot Azure deployment errors. DO NOT USE FOR: creating new applications (use azure-prepare), executing deployments (use azure-deploy).
Identify and quantify cost savings across Azure subscriptions by analyzing actual costs, utilization metrics, and generating actionable optimization recommendations. USE FOR: optimize Azure costs, reduce Azure spending, reduce Azure expenses, analyze Azure costs, find cost savings, generate cost optimization report, find orphaned resources, rightsize VMs, cost analysis, reduce waste, Azure spending analysis, find unused resources, optimize Redis costs. DO NOT USE FOR: deploying resources (use azure-deploy), general Azure diagnostics (use azure-diagnostics), security issues (use azure-security)
Troubleshoot and resolve issues with Azure Messaging SDKs for Event Hubs and Service Bus. Covers connection failures, authentication errors, message processing issues, and SDK configuration problems. USE FOR: event hub SDK error, service bus SDK issue, messaging connection failure, AMQP error, event processor host issue, message lock lost, send timeout, receiver disconnected, SDK troubleshooting, azure messaging SDK, event hub consumer, service bus queue issue, topic subscription error, enable logging event hub, service bus logging, eventhub python, servicebus java, eventhub javascript, servicebus dotnet, event hub checkpoint, event hub not receiving messages, service bus dead letter DO NOT USE FOR: creating Event Hub or Service Bus resources (use azure-prepare), monitoring metrics (use azure-observability), cost analysis (use azure-cost-optimization)
Architect and provision enterprise Azure infrastructure from workload descriptions. For cloud architects and platform engineers planning networking, identity, security, compliance, and multi-resource topologies with WAF alignment. Generates Bicep or Terraform directly (no azd). WHEN: 'plan Azure infrastructure', 'architect Azure landing zone', 'design hub-spoke network', 'plan multi-region DR topology', 'set up VNets firewalls and private endpoints', 'subscription-scope Bicep deployment'. PREFER azure-prepare FOR app-centric workflows.
Plan, create, and configure production-ready Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters. Covers Day-0 checklist, SKU selection (Automatic vs Standard), networking options (private API server, Azure CNI Overlay, egress configuration), security, and operations (autoscaling, upgrade strategy, cost analysis). WHEN: create AKS environment, provision AKS environment, enable AKS observability, design AKS networking, choose AKS SKU, secure AKS.
Azure Observability Services including Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Log Analytics, Alerts, and Workbooks. Provides metrics, APM, distributed tracing, KQL queries, and interactive reports.
