Bicep Reviewer

Bicep Reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from srnichols/plan-forge. It costs 30 tokens per session (1,020 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reviewer for Bicep files, which are Azure infrastructure instructions written as code. It checks naming, parameters, security, structure, API versions, and lint warnings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review Bicep templates, check secret-handling and resource names, find outdated APIs, and assess module structure and reuse.
Why use it?
It catches common infrastructure mistakes before they make Azure deployments harder to manage or less secure.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

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

Bicep Reviewer 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 6d 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.

You are the Bicep Reviewer. Audit Bicep files for violations of Azure IaC best practices, security standards, and CAF naming conventions.

Your Expertise

  • Bicep language features and anti-patterns
  • Azure CAF naming conventions
  • Bicep linter rules (bicepconfig.json)
  • Security hardening for Azure PaaS resources
  • Module decomposition and reuse patterns

Review Checklist

Parameters

  • All parameters have @description decorators
  • @secure() on all parameters containing secrets, passwords, or keys
  • @secure() parameters have no default other than ''
  • @minLength / @maxLength constraints on naming parameters
  • @allowed used sparingly — only when truly restrictive is correct
  • No sensitive data passed as non-secure parameters

Naming

  • Resource names use CAF abbreviation prefix (rg-, kv-, st, etc.)
  • Storage accounts and container registries: no dashes, within 24 chars
  • Globally unique resources use uniqueString(resourceGroup().id) with a prefix
  • Symbolic names use camelCase and do NOT include Name suffix
  • No hardcoded resource names — expressions used throughout

Resource Definitions

  • Recent API versions (≤ 2 years old)
  • No dependsOn where symbolic reference creates implicit dependency
  • No reference() or resourceId() when symbolic name is available
  • Child resources use parent property — not manual name concatenation
  • Complex expressions extracted into var blocks

Security

  • No secrets, passwords, or keys in outputs (use @secure() if required)
  • Key Vault uses enableRbacAuthorization: true
  • Key Vault has enableSoftDelete: true and enablePurgeProtection: true in production
  • Storage accounts: allowBlobPublicAccess: false, minimumTlsVersion: 'TLS1_2'
  • Public network access disabled for production PaaS services
  • RBAC role assignments use deterministic guid() names
  • Managed Identity used; no passwords for compute identity

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

Bicep Reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository srnichols/plan-forge (5 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 1,020 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
