Azure Enterprise Infra Planner

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when user wants to:

• Plan enterprise Azure infrastructure from a workload or architecture description
• Architect a landing zone, hub-spoke network, or multi-region topology
• Design networking infrastructure: VNets, subnets, firewalls, private endpoints, VPN gateways
• Plan identity, RBAC, and compliance-driven infrastructure
• Generate Bicep or Terraform for subscription-scope or multi-resource-group deployments
• Plan disaster recovery, failover, or cross-region high-availability topologies

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Fix
MCP tool error or not available	Tool call timeout, connection error, or tool doesn't exist	Retry once; fall back to reference files and notify user if unresolved
Plan approval missing	meta.status is not approved	Stop and prompt user for approval before IaC generation or deployment
IaC validation failure	az bicep build or terraform validate returns errors	Fix the generated code and re-validate; notify user if unresolved
Pairing constraint violation	Incompatible SKU or resource combination	Fix in plan before proceeding to IaC generation
Infra plan or IaC files not found	Files written to wrong location or not created	Verify files exist at <project-root>/.azure/ and <project-root>/infra/; if missing, re-create the files by following workflow.md exactly
