Deploy Model

Scope — read this first. This skill creates model deployments out-of-band via Azure CLI / MCP / portal. For azd-managed Foundry projects (those scaffolded from azd-ai-starter-basic or via azd ai agent init), declare deployments in azure.yaml services.ai-project.deployments[] instead — azd ai agent init writes the entry from the sample manifest and azd provision creates the deployment through Bicep. See foundry-agent/create/create-hosted.md for the Golden Path. Use this skill only for: (a) Foundry projects not managed by an azd project, (b) ad-hoc deployments outside the azd lifecycle.

Unified entry point for all Azure OpenAI model deployment workflows. Analyzes user intent and routes to the appropriate deployment mode.
