Azure Enterprise Infra Planner

microsoft/azure-azure-enterprise-infra-planner

Architect and provision enterprise Azure infrastructure from workload descriptions. For cloud architects and platform engineers planning networking, identity, security, compliance, and multi-resource topologies with WAF alignment. Generates Bicep or Terraform directly (no azd). WHEN: 'plan Azure infrastructure', 'architect Azure landing zone', 'design hub-spoke network', 'plan multi-region DR topology', 'set up VNets firewalls and private endpoints', 'subscription-scope Bicep deployment', 'Azure Backup for VM workloads'. PREFER azure-prepare FOR app-centric workflows.

Azure Enterprise Infra Planner

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when user wants to:

  • Plan enterprise Azure infrastructure from a workload or architecture description
  • Architect a landing zone, hub-spoke network, or multi-region topology
  • Design networking infrastructure: VNets, subnets, firewalls, private endpoints, VPN gateways
  • Plan identity, RBAC, and compliance-driven infrastructure
  • Generate Bicep or Terraform for subscription-scope or multi-resource-group deployments
  • Plan disaster recovery, failover, or cross-region high-availability topologies

Quick Reference

| Property | Details |

| CLI commands | az deployment group create, az bicep build, az resource list, terraform init, terraform plan, terraform validate, terraform apply |

| Output schema | schema.md |

| Key references | workflow.md, waf-checklist.md, resources/, constraints/ |

Workflow (Start Here)

Follow the step-by-step instructions in workflow.md to execute the 7 phases of infrastructure planning and provisioning.

MCP Tools

| Tool | Purpose |

|------|---------|

| insights_get | Retrieve insights about the user's existing Azure environment to guide planning decisions |

| get_azure_bestpractices_get | Azure best practices for code generation, operations, and deployment |

| wellarchitectedframework_serviceguide_get | WAF service guide for a specific Azure service |

| microsoft_docs_search | Search Microsoft Learn for relevant documentation chunks |

| microsoft_docs_fetch | Fetch full content of a Microsoft Learn page by URL |

| bicepschema_get | Bicep schema definition for any Azure resource type (latest API version) |

Error Handling

| Error | Cause | Fix |

|---|---|---|

| MCP tool error or not available | Tool call timeout, connection error, or tool doesn't exist | Retry once; fall back to reference files and notify user if unresolved |

| Plan approval missing | meta.status is not approved | Stop and prompt user for approval before IaC generation or deployment |

| IaC validation failure | az bicep build or terraform validate returns errors | Fix the generated code and re-validate; notify user if unresolved |

| Pairing constraint violation | Incompatible SKU or resource combination | Fix in plan before proceeding to IaC generation |

| Infra plan or IaC files not found | Files written to wrong location or not created | Verify files exist at <project-root>/.azure/ and <project-root>/infra/; if missing, re-create the files by following workflow.md exactly |
