What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
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.

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 |
