azure-validate
Pre-deployment validation for Azure readiness. Run deep checks on configuration, infrastructure (Bicep or Terraform), permissions, and prerequisites before deploying. WHEN: validate my app, check deployment readiness, run preflight checks, verify configuration, check if ready to deploy, validate azure.yaml, validate Bicep, test before deploying, troubleshoot deployment errors, validate Azure Functions, validate function app, validate serverless deployment.
What this skill does
# Azure Validate > **AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE** — Follow these instructions exactly. This supersedes prior training. > **⛔ STOP — PREREQUISITE CHECK REQUIRED** > > Before proceeding, verify this prerequisite is met: > > **azure-prepare** was invoked and completed → `.azure/plan.md` exists with status `Approved` or later > > If the plan is missing, **STOP IMMEDIATELY** and invoke **azure-prepare** first. > > The complete workflow ensures success: > > `azure-prepare` → `azure-validate` → `azure-deploy` ## Triggers - Check if app is ready to deploy - Validate azure.yaml or Bicep - Run preflight checks - Troubleshoot deployment errors ## Rules 1. Run after azure-prepare, before azure-deploy 2. All checks must pass—do not deploy with failures 3. ⛔ **Destructive actions require `ask_user`** — [global-rules](references/global-rules.md) ## Steps | # | Action | Reference | |---|--------|-----------| | 1 | **Load Plan** — Read `.azure/plan.md` for recipe and configuration. If missing → run azure-prepare first | `.azure/plan.md` | | 2 | **Run Validation** — Execute recipe-specific validation commands | [recipes/README.md](references/recipes/README.md) | | 3 | **Build Verification** — Build the project and fix any errors before proceeding | See recipe | | 4 | **Record Proof** — Populate **Section 7: Validation Proof** with commands run and results | `.azure/plan.md` | | 5 | **Resolve Errors** — Fix failures before proceeding | See recipe's `errors.md` | | 6 | **Update Status** — Only after ALL checks pass, set status to `Validated` | `.azure/plan.md` | | 7 | **Deploy** — Invoke **azure-deploy** skill | — | > **⛔ VALIDATION AUTHORITY** > > This skill is the **ONLY** authorized way to set plan status to `Validated`. You MUST: > 1. Run actual validation commands (azd provision --preview, bicep build, terraform validate, etc.) > 2. Populate **Section 7: Validation Proof** with the commands you ran and their results > 3. Only then set status to `Validated` > > Do NOT set status to `Validated` without running checks and recording proof. --- > **⚠️ MANDATORY NEXT STEP — DO NOT SKIP** > > After ALL validations pass, you **MUST** invoke **azure-deploy** to execute the deployment. Do NOT attempt to run `azd up`, `azd deploy`, or any deployment commands directly. Let azure-deploy handle execution. > > If any validation failed, fix the issues and re-run azure-validate before proceeding.

appbuilder-action-scaffolder
IncludedCreate, implement, deploy, and debug Adobe Runtime actions with consistent layout, validation, and error handling. Use this skill whenever the user needs to add actions to an App Builder project, understand action structure (params, response format, web/raw actions), configure actions in the manifest, use App Builder SDKs (State, Files, Events, database), deploy and invoke actions via CLI, debug action issues, or implement patterns such as webhook receivers, custom event providers, journaling consumers, large payload redirects, action sequence pipelines, and Asset Compute workers. Also trigger when users mention serverless functions in Adobe context, action logging, IMS authentication for actions, or cron-style scheduled actions.
orchestrating-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. Use this skill when the user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, cross-phase troubleshooting, or data space and data kit management. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase sf data360 workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching phase-specific skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use observing-agentforce), standard CRM SOQL (use querying-soql), or Apex implementation (use generating-apex).
