azuresql-db-ci

azuresql-db-ci is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from microsoft/azure-sql-database-container. It costs 191 tokens per session (3,033 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for running integration tests against the Azure SQL Database engine in a continuous-integration pipeline. Continuous integration automatically builds and tests code after changes, and a service container supplies the database during those tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Add the Azure SQL Database container to GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or GitLab CI, configure access to the private image, wait for the database to be ready, and run application integration tests.
Why use it?
Tests that use a real Azure SQL engine can reveal database problems that a mock or different SQL Server image would miss. Running the same setup in CI makes those checks repeatable for the team.

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

azuresql-db-ci 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 4d 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.

The Azure SQL Database container in CI

Run integration tests against the Azure SQL Database engine (Private Preview) as a CI service container. This is the local Azure SQL engine, not the SQL Server image mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server. SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('EngineEdition') returns 5 and SERVERPROPERTY('Edition') returns 'SQL Azure'. If a workflow was about to use the SQL Server image, stop and use this image instead.

For the full readiness loop, connection model, vectors, seeding, and registry detail, load the azuresql-db-container skill.

Load-bearing facts (inlined)

  • Image: sqldbpreview-dpgaeqhmgphzd4bk.azurecr.io/azure-sql/db-dev:latest (x64, linux/amd64). It lives in a private preview registry; the runner must sign in with ACR_USERNAME / ACR_PASSWORD secrets. Registry and tag are provisional during Private Preview.
  • Platform: the image is x64 only. CI hosted runners are x64, so no --platform flag is needed there. On a non-x64 self-hosted runner, add --platform linux/amd64.
  • Required env: ACCEPT_EULA=Y and a complex MSSQL_SA_PASSWORD (8+ chars, upper/lower/digit/ symbol), kept in a secret. Engine listens on 1433.
  • Provision appdb first. The engine does NOT auto-create databases on connect. You must CREATE DATABASE appdb on a master connection before anything connects with Database=appdb.
  • Prefer the connection string over USE. Avoid USE to switch databases. In a user-database session (the Azure-faithful context where you develop), USE returns Msg 40508, exactly as in Azure SQL Database in the cloud. A master connection is a provisioning session where the Azure statement filter is not enforced, so USE appears to work there, but master is for provisioning only, not application work. Always select the target database in the connection string (Database=appdb, or -d appdb for sqlcmd).
  • master is for provisioning only. Tests run against the user database appdb, never master.
  • No auto-seed. The image does NOT run /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/*.sql (that is a Postgres/MySQL convention, not honored here). Seed by running sqlcmd -d appdb -i seed.sql after provisioning appdb.

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.
