Prepare azd-based Azure projects for deployment: generates azure.yaml, infrastructure (Bicep/Terraform), and Dockerfiles for the Azure Developer CLI (azd) workflow. USE ONLY when the user explicitly wants to use azd as the deployment tool, or the project already has an azure.yaml file. DO NOT USE FOR: non-azd deployments, Python App Service code-only deploys (use python-appservice-deploy), or cross-cloud migration (use azure-cloud-migrate). WHEN: prepare app for azd, create azure.yaml, set up azd infrastructure, modernize app for Azure with azd, deploy with azd, function app, timer trigger, service bus trigger, event-driven function, managed identity, generate Bicep, generate Terraform, create and deploy to Azure.

App Configuration — Python SDK Quick Reference

Condensed from azure-appconfiguration-py. Full patterns (feature flags, snapshots, read-only settings, async client, labels) in the azure-appconfiguration-py plugin skill if installed.

Install

pip install azure-appconfiguration azure-identity

Quick Start

Auth: DefaultAzureCredential is for local development. See auth-best-practices.md for production patterns.

from azure.appconfiguration import AzureAppConfigurationClient
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
client = AzureAppConfigurationClient(base_url="https://<name>.azconfig.io", credential=DefaultAzureCredential())

Best Practices

  • Use labels for environment separation (dev, staging, prod)
  • Use key prefixes for logical grouping (app:database:, app:cache:)
  • Make production settings read-only to prevent accidental changes
  • Create snapshots before deployments for rollback capability
  • Use Entra ID instead of connection strings in production
  • Refresh settings periodically in long-running applications
  • Use feature flags for gradual rollouts and A/B testing

    This skill includes security considerations related to the processing of untrusted project files and the retrieval of external development templates. While these operations are essential for modernizing and preparing Azure applications, they represent a surface area for indirect prompt injection and depend on the integrity of external template repositories.
