Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned microsoft/azure-skills at 9bb168c343.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to deploy resources and applications within Microsoft Azure. It can automate tasks such as creating resource groups, deploying virtual machines, and configuring networking components based on provided templates or configurations. The skill streamlines the deployment process, reducing manual effort and potential errors.

When to use it

  • Automating infrastructure setup for new projects in Azure.
  • Deploying application code to Azure App Services or Virtual Machine Scale Sets.
  • Creating and managing Azure resources as part of a larger automation workflow.
  • Replicating environments (e.g., development, staging, production) using consistent configurations.

Key capabilities

  • Resource Group Management: Create, delete, and manage resource groups.
  • Virtual Machine Deployment: Deploy virtual machines based on pre-defined images or custom configurations.
  • Networking Configuration: Configure Virtual Networks, Subnets, and Network Security Groups.
  • Application Deployment: Deploy applications to Azure App Services or other supported services.

Example prompts

  • "Create a resource group named 'my-resource-group' in the 'eastus' region."
  • "Deploy a virtual machine using the Ubuntu 20.04 image and assign it a public IP address."
  • “Deploy my application code to Azure App Service.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires appropriate Azure credentials and permissions for the AI agent to access and manage resources.
  • Deployment templates or configurations must be valid and compatible with the target Azure environment.
