azure-identity-rust

azure-identity-rust is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from benjaminasterA/antigravity-awesome-skills. It costs 0 tokens per session (792 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Rust library for authenticating applications with Microsoft Azure through Microsoft Entra ID, formerly called Azure Active Directory. It includes credentials for developer tools, managed identities, service principals, and other deployment setups.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when Rust code connects to Azure services such as Key Vault and needs authentication through Azure CLI, Azure Developer CLI, managed identity, or service principals.
Why use it?
It avoids implementing separate login flows for local development and deployed applications. The selected credential can be passed to Azure service clients.

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-identity-rust 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 8d 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 Identity SDK for Rust

Authentication library for Azure SDK clients using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).

Installation

cargo add azure_identity

Environment Variables

# Service Principal (for production/CI)
AZURE_TENANT_ID=<your-tenant-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>

# User-assigned Managed Identity (optional)
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<managed-identity-client-id>

DeveloperToolsCredential

The recommended credential for local development. Tries developer tools in order (Azure CLI, Azure Developer CLI):

use azure_identity::DeveloperToolsCredential;
use azure_security_keyvault_secrets::SecretClient;

let credential = DeveloperToolsCredential::new(None)?;
let client = SecretClient::new(
    "https://my-vault.vault.azure.net/",
    credential.clone(),
    None,
)?;

Credential Chain Order

Order Credential Environment
1 AzureCliCredential az login
2 AzureDeveloperCliCredential azd auth login

Credential Types

Credential Usage
DeveloperToolsCredential Local development - tries CLI tools
ManagedIdentityCredential Azure VMs, App Service, Functions, AKS
WorkloadIdentityCredential Kubernetes workload identity
ClientSecretCredential Service principal with secret
ClientCertificateCredential Service principal with certificate
AzureCliCredential Direct Azure CLI auth
AzureDeveloperCliCredential Direct azd CLI auth
AzurePipelinesCredential Azure Pipelines service connection
ClientAssertionCredential Custom assertions (federated identity)

ManagedIdentityCredential

For Azure-hosted resources:

use azure_identity::ManagedIdentityCredential;

// System-assigned managed identity
let credential = ManagedIdentityCredential::new(None)?;

// User-assigned managed identity
let options = ManagedIdentityCredentialOptions {
    client_id: Some("<user-assigned-mi-client-id>".into()),
    ..Default::default()
};
let credential = ManagedIdentityCredential::new(Some(options))?;
