APIOps Deployment Skill
Provides Infrastructure as Code (Bicep/Terraform) templates and CI/CD pipeline patterns for deploying Azure API Management following APIOps principles and phased deployment strategies.
When to Use This Skill
Activate this skill when users need:
- Infrastructure deployment: Generate Bicep/Terraform for APIM, Front Door, VNet, supporting services
- CI/CD pipelines: Create GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps workflows for APIOps
- Environment promotion: Implement dev → test → prod deployment workflows
- Configuration management: Environment-specific parameters (dev/test/prod)
- Disaster recovery: Backup/restore procedures, blue-green deployments
- Phased rollout: Follow deployment planning guide with 7 phases over 17 weeks

Create and edit architecture diagrams using Draw.io MCP (`drawio/create_diagram`) with reliable Azure and AWS icon rendering guidance and troubleshooting. Supports Azure2 and AWS4 icon libraries. Requires Python 3 and internet access to refresh icon catalogs (periodic, not per-run).
13api-security-review
Reviews Azure API Management configurations for security vulnerabilities, OWASP API Security Top 10 compliance, VNet Internal mode validation, Private Link verification, and Azure Security Benchmark alignment. Use when performing security audits, pre-deployment validation, or compliance reviews.
13architecture-design
Design Azure cloud architectures from requirements and generate High-Level Design (HLD) documentation with service selection, patterns, cost estimates, and WAF alignment. Use this when asked to design or architect Azure solutions.
13waf-assessment
Assess Azure architectures against Well-Architected Framework (WAF) five pillars - Reliability, Security, Cost Optimization, Operational Excellence, and Performance Efficiency. Provide scores and recommendations.
11azure-apim-architecture
Analyzes and explains Azure API Management architecture decisions for enterprise API marketplace implementations using VNet Internal mode, Front Door, hybrid authentication, and multi-environment strategies. Use when discussing APIM component selection, network topology, cost optimization, or comparing alternatives like workspaces vs instances, VNet Internal vs External mode, or Front Door vs Application Gateway.
11cost-optimization
Analyze Azure architectures for cost optimization opportunities, provide savings recommendations, and calculate ROI for improvements.
