Does this skill work with the Azure Developer CLI (azd)?

Yes, it automatically detects 'azure.yaml' files and utilizes 'azd provision --preview' for projects using the Azure Developer CLI workflow.

What is the benefit of running an Azure preflight check?

It identifies syntax errors, resource conflicts, and permission issues before you actually deploy, preventing failed deployments and unintended resource deletions in your Azure environment.

Where can I find the results of the validation process?

The skill generates a comprehensive 'preflight-report.md' file in your project root containing a summary of issues, tool output, and categorized resource changes.

What happens if I don't have full RBAC permissions for validation?

The skill features an intelligent fallback mechanism that attempts validation at the 'ProviderNoRbac' level to provide as much feedback as possible even with limited permissions.

Validates Azure Bicep deployments through syntax checks, what-if analysis, and permission verification to ensure infrastructure changes are safe and successful.

This skill provides a comprehensive pre-deployment validation workflow for Azure infrastructure projects. It automatically detects whether you are using the Azure Developer CLI (azd) or standard Azure CLI, performs deep syntax validation of Bicep templates, and executes 'what-if' operations to preview exactly which resources will be created, modified, or deleted. By checking permissions and identifying potential deployment failures before they occur, it minimizes production risks and deployment errors while generating detailed markdown reports for audit and review.
