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.

Authentication — Python SDK Quick Reference

Condensed from azure-identity-py. Full patterns (async, ChainedTokenCredential, token caching, all credential types) in the azure-identity-py plugin skill if installed.

Install

pip install azure-identity

Quick Start

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

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()

Best Practices

  • Use DefaultAzureCredential for local development only (CLI, PowerShell, VS Code). In production, use ManagedIdentityCredential — see auth-best-practices.md
  • Never hardcode credentials — use environment variables or managed identity
  • Prefer managed identity in production Azure deployments
  • Use ChainedTokenCredential when you need a custom credential order
  • Close async credentials explicitly or use context managers
  • Set AZURE_CLIENT_ID env var for user-assigned managed identities
  • Exclude unused credentials to speed up authentication

    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.
