Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit 1a63e5f, the one we checked, or the latest version.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity, and Claude Code for Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Pinned to commit 1a63e5f, the one we checked.

From your project's root folder:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&
  git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/microsoft/skills.git "$tmp" &&
  git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin 1a63e5f771987a9a13e9f0571823dc1e80741583 &&
  git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- .github/plugins/azure-skills/skills/python-appservice-deploy &&
  git -C "$tmp" checkout -q 1a63e5f771987a9a13e9f0571823dc1e80741583 &&
  mkdir -p .claude/skills &&
  mkdir .claude/skills/python-appservice-deploy &&
  cp -R "$tmp"/.github/plugins/azure-skills/skills/python-appservice-deploy/. .claude/skills/python-appservice-deploy/ &&
  rm -rf "$tmp"

If Claude Code was already running and this created the skills folder, run /reload-skills.

Or install the azure plugin it ships in. Installs the latest version, not the one we checked. Installs everything in the plugin, including any hooks, MCP servers and scripts our check doesn't cover.

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit 1a63e5f. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

What it can touch: Shell, network or credentials

  • Runs shell commands

    Its instructions or files give the agent commands to run on your computer.

  • Reaches the network

    It sends or fetches data over the internet, for example with curl, an HTTP library or a package install.

  • Names web addresses

    It mentions outside web addresses the agent may visit. We list them but don't follow them.

  • Bundles scripts

    The folder holds code files the agent may run.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit 1a63e5f · 26 Oct 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit 1a63e5f on 26 Oct 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

  • Agent Skills specPasses

    The open format from agentskills.io, held to what the strictest agents enforce, so one folder loads everywhere.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/create-app.md (134 lines) and references/deploy-azcli.md (113 lines). B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude CodePasses

    Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/create-app.md (134 lines) and references/deploy-azcli.md (113 lines). B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude apps & API uploadPasses

    Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.

    • Note

      The description is 281 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4

      Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/create-app.md (134 lines) and references/deploy-azcli.md (113 lines). B5
