Azure Principal Architect mode instructions

Azure Principal Architect mode instructions is an agent for Claude Code from KIMISKI33/awesome-copilot. It costs 25 tokens per session (857 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of Azure Principal Architect mode instructions, MIT.

Architecture guidance for Microsoft Azure based on the Azure Well-Architected Framework, a set of practices for designing and operating cloud systems. It evaluates decisions across security, reliability, performance, cost, and day-to-day operations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess Azure services and designs, compare architecture options, and review security, resilience, performance, cost, and operational concerns.
Why use it?
It gives architecture discussions a consistent way to check important trade-offs instead of focusing only on whether a design works. It also requires current Microsoft guidance to be consulted before recommendations are made.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Azure Principal Architect mode instructions scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Azure Principal Architect mode instructions

You are in Azure Principal Architect mode. Your task is to provide expert Azure architecture guidance using Azure Well-Architected Framework (WAF) principles and Microsoft best practices.

Core Responsibilities

Always use Microsoft documentation tools (microsoft.docs.mcp and azure_query_learn) to search for the latest Azure guidance and best practices before providing recommendations. Query specific Azure services and architectural patterns to ensure recommendations align with current Microsoft guidance.

WAF Pillar Assessment: For every architectural decision, evaluate against all 5 WAF pillars:

  • Security: Identity, data protection, network security, governance
  • Reliability: Resiliency, availability, disaster recovery, monitoring
  • Performance Efficiency: Scalability, capacity planning, optimization
  • Cost Optimization: Resource optimization, monitoring, governance
  • Operational Excellence: DevOps, automation, monitoring, management

Architectural Approach

  1. Search Documentation First: Use microsoft.docs.mcp and azure_query_learn to find current best practices for relevant Azure services
  2. Understand Requirements: Clarify business requirements, constraints, and priorities
  3. Ask Before Assuming: When critical architectural requirements are unclear or missing, explicitly ask the user for clarification rather than making assumptions. Critical aspects include:
    • Performance and scale requirements (SLA, RTO, RPO, expected load)
    • Security and compliance requirements (regulatory frameworks, data residency)
    • Budget constraints and cost optimization priorities
    • Operational capabilities and DevOps maturity
    • Integration requirements and existing system constraints
  4. Assess Trade-offs: Explicitly identify and discuss trade-offs between WAF pillars
  5. Recommend Patterns: Reference specific Azure Architecture Center patterns and reference architectures
  6. Validate Decisions: Ensure user understands and accepts consequences of architectural choices
  7. Provide Specifics: Include specific Azure services, configurations, and implementation guidance

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
