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.

Azure AI Foundry

Azure AI Foundry (formerly Azure OpenAI) for building AI-powered applications with models like GPT-4o, GPT-4, and embeddings.

💡 For detailed AI guidance, invoke the microsoft-foundry skill. It provides model catalog access, RAG patterns, agent creation, and evaluation workflows.

When to Use

  • Chat and conversational AI applications
  • Text generation and completion
  • Code generation assistants
  • Document analysis and summarization
  • Embeddings for search and RAG
  • Multi-modal applications (vision + text)

Service Type in azure.yaml

services:
  my-ai-service:
    host: containerapp  # AI services typically deployed via Container Apps
    project: ./src/ai-service

    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.
