azure-sdk-for-net: Skill for Claude Code

.github/skills/azsdk-common-pipeline-analysis/SKILL.md

azsdk-common-pipeline-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Azure/azure-sdk-for-net. It costs 192 tokens per session (1,071 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for analyzing Azure SDK CI/CD pipeline failures, where automated builds and tests run. It turns raw failure data into a structured diagnosis with likely causes, affected files, and repair instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a pipeline, build, or test check fails to classify each failure and identify relevant files and lines. It can also retrieve detailed test results and pipeline artifacts when the Azure SDK tools are available.
Why use it?
It helps separate code problems from infrastructure issues such as timeouts or crashed build agents. It explains what needs fixing without changing files itself.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

This is Azure/azure-sdk-for-net's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on azure-sdk-for-net itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything azure-sdk-for-net configures →

About the project

Azure SDK for .NET is a repository containing the actively developed C# libraries that applications use to work with Azure services. It is for .NET developers building software that connects to Azure storage, management, and other cloud services.

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

azsdk-common-pipeline-analysis 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 13d 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.

Pipeline Analysis

This skill analyzes Azure SDK CI/CD pipeline failures and provides a structured diagnosis including root cause, affected files, and concrete instructions for how to fix each issue. It does NOT apply fixes - it tells you exactly what's wrong and how to resolve it.

Rules

  • Load this skill before running azsdk_analyze_pipeline — the tool returns raw failure data that this skill interprets and formats per output format.
  • Requires the azure-sdk-mcp server; without it, inspect logs in the Azure DevOps UI.
  • Analysis-only: never edit files or apply fixes — use azsdk-common-pipeline-fixer for changes.
  • Run azsdk_analyze_pipeline first, then categorize each failure and cite specific files/lines.
  • For infrastructure failures (network timeouts, agent crashes, throttling), recommend retry, not code changes.

MCP Tools

Tool Purpose
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_analyze_pipeline Analyze pipeline failure (logs + test results)
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_get_pipeline_llm_artifacts Download test result artifacts from pipeline
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_get_failed_test_run_data Full details for every failure in one artifact file
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_get_failed_test_case_data Full details for a single failing test in a file
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_get_pr_checks Get pipeline/check results linked to a PR
azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_get_pipeline_status Get pipeline run status

Steps

  1. Identify - Get the build ID, pipeline URL, or PR link (use the PR link when triggered from a PR comment).
  2. Analyze - Run azsdk_analyze_pipeline. It returns failed_pipeline_tasks (log errors from failed steps) and failed_pipeline_tests, a lightweight index of failed tests grouped by artifact file. Each entry has artifact_file_path, platform, and failed_test_titles — titles only, no error text, to keep the response small.
  3. Fetch failure details - Fetch failure details lazily so you don't overload context: call azsdk_get_failed_test_run_data with the parameter failedTestRunsPath set to artifact_file_path once per file to get every failure in it. Or call azsdk_get_failed_test_case_data with failedTestRunsPath set to artifact_file_path and testCaseTitle set to one exact title from failed_test_titles. Prefer the per-file call when triaging a whole file's failures.
  4. Categorize each failure: test, build/compilation, validation/lint, or infrastructure.
  5. Diagnose - Give each failure's root cause and affected file(s)/line(s), and note if several share one root cause. See failure patterns.
  6. Report - Use the output format: root cause, affected files, per-failure fix + verify command, and fixable vs infrastructure. Recommend azsdk-common-pipeline-fixer to apply fixes.

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.
