azure-env-builder
[Alpha] Experimental Azure environment builder for infrastructure and deployment design. Use when building Azure infrastructure, generating Bicep with AVM modules, deploying apps to App Service/AKS/Container Apps, or designing Hub-Spoke, AKS, and AI Foundry architectures.
Best use case
azure-env-builder is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Teams using azure-env-builder should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.
