Azure Developer CLI (azd) is a command-line tool for building, deploying, and operating applications on Azure. Developers use it to move through application workflows such as coding, building, deployment, and monitoring with Azure templates and resources. Its catalogue entries help AI agents work with azd and Azure application projects.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00249 | $0.03716 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00100 | $0.01486 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00050 | $0.00743 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00372 |
Grade A, and why
foundry-extension-scenario-suite-run 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 249 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
foundry-extension-scenario-suite-run
Runs the azure.ai.agents extension's interactive CLI scenarios as a full or filtered
sweep and writes an aggregate report. Selection here is by tag / tier, not by a PR diff —
that is the one thing that distinguishes this skill from foundry-extension-scenario-pr-regression.
Tools invoked: cli-interactive-tester MCP tools (list_scenarios, load_scenario,
run_pre_hooks, start_session, send_action, finish_session, run_post_hooks), the
foundry-extension-scenario-worker agent, and ask_user.
Overview
The azure.ai.agents extension ships goal-based scenarios for the
cli-interactive-tester
MCP server under cli/azd/extensions/azure.ai.agents/tests/cli-interactive-tester-scenarios/.
They are never run in CI — they need the tester MCP server, a populated
profile.local.yaml, manual az/gh login, and (for Tier 1b / Tier 2) real Azure resources.
This skill is the opt-in, run-locally flow for running many scenarios at once: the whole
suite, or a subset selected by tags: (a command like cmd:init, a trait like parallel-safe,
or a tier like tier:0). It:
- Resolves the sweep's tag/tier filter from the user's request (or runs everything).
- Enumerates the matching scenarios via
list_scenarios. - Gates Azure cost (Tier 1b / Tier 2), then drives scenarios as their dependencies become ready.
- Writes an aggregate
FINAL-REPORT.md(no PR comment unless the user asks).
It is cost- and side-effect-aware: Tier 0 is free/offline, Tier 1 needs Azure auth but
provisions nothing, Tier 1b (verify-deploy) provisions per-scenario Azure resources, and
Tier 2 incurs Azure cost — Tier 1b and Tier 2 run only after explicit user confirmation.
This skill selects what to run (tag/tier filter) and owns the aggregate report. It does not
re-document how a scenario is driven — that is the executor spec at
cli/azd/extensions/azure.ai.agents/tests/cli-interactive-tester-scenarios/driving-mechanics.md,
which the spawned foundry-extension-scenario-worker agent follows for each scenario. This skill is one of the
two selection strategies behind the foundry-extension-scenario-orchestrator front door; the orchestrator may
dispatch it, or it may trigger directly.
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.

foundry-extension-scenario-suite-run is a skill published in the GitHub repository Azure/azure-dev (570 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 249 tokens to every session and 3,716 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-10.
