Is this agent skill safe to install?

  • Gen Agent Trust Hubpass

    This skill provides a comprehensive workflow for deploying Python applications to Azure App Service using the Azure CLI and Azure Developer CLI. It follows security best practices by excluding sensitive local configuration files during deployment and implements robust sanitization for resource naming. The technical patterns identified are consistent with standard cloud management and deployment tasks.

What does this agent skill do?

Python on Azure App Service — Code Deploy

Deploys Python (Flask, Django, FastAPI, generic) code to Azure App Service Linux (P0v3, Python 3.14). Creates RG + Plan + Web App if missing. Hand off to azure-prepare for VNet, Key Vault, databases, or IaC.

MCP tools used: mcp_azure_mcp_subscription_list, mcp_azure_mcp_group_list, mcp_azure_mcp_appservice, mcp_azure_mcp_azd (when azure.yaml is present).

Workflow

  1. Resolve context — smart defaults, minimal prompts. Only the app name is interactive; RG (<app>-rg), Plan (<app>-plan), region (current az default or eastus2), subscription are derived. create-app.md §1.
  2. Detect framework (advisory, never blocks). detect.md.
  3. Choose path — azure.yaml host: appservice → deploy-azd.md; else deploy-azcli.md.
  4. Ensure RG → Plan (P0v3 --is-linux) → Web App (--runtime "PYTHON:3.14") exist. On transient ARM errors, follow transient-retry.md. create-app.md.
  5. Set startup — Flask/Django: none (Oryx auto-detects). FastAPI: always python -m uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0. Other: warn. startup-commands.md.
  6. Set SCM_DO_BUILD_DURING_DEPLOYMENT=true.
  7. Deploy — azd deploy or az webapp deploy --type zip --track-status false.
  8. STOP. Print the post-deploy message (post-deploy-message.md) and end the turn.

Hard rules

  • ⛔ NO POST-DEPLOY VERIFICATION — after deploy returns, do not run az webapp log tail, curl, Invoke-WebRequest, or any health probe. App Service needs 2–3 min to warm; a quiet log or early 5xx is not failure.
  • ⛔ SHELL SAFETY — for --runtime always use "PYTHON:3.14" (colon). Never "PYTHON|3.14" (pipe is a shell operator).
  • ⛔ NEVER az webapp up — deprecated. Use Step 7 commands.
  • ✅ URL FORMAT — present endpoints as https://... URLs.

Error Handling

See errors.md for the full symptom → cause → fix matrix. Quick triage: missing plan/app → re-run Step 4; container ping timeout on 8000 → fix startup (Step 5); ModuleNotFoundError after deploy → ensure Step 6 ran, redeploy.
