SKILL

azure-app-onboard

End-to-end orchestrator: from a business idea, app idea, or existing app to running Azure deployment with cost estimates and pre-deploy approval. Analyzes your app, auto-detects the right Azure services, scaffolds infrastructure code, and deploys — tailored to your app, not a template. Handles moving existing apps to Azure without rewriting or with minimal changes. WHEN: bring your app to Azure, plan my app, cost to run, is my code ready to deploy, deploy my app to the cloud, deploy all my services, what Azure services do I need, plan my Azure deployment, deploy my new app to Azure, one-click deploy, I have an app and want it on Azure, migrate my app to Azure, help me get started, build an app, no code yet, starter project. DO NOT USE FOR: use azd for deployment(use azure-deploy), optimizing existing costs (use cost-optimization), code readiness checks only (use azure-app-onboard-prereq).

Follow the Workflow table below sequentially — read each step's references before acting. | Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Best for | Developers who know what to build but not which Azure services to use | | Inputs | Business idea or existing codebase, budget/scale preferences (optional) | | Outputs | Architecture plan, cost estimate, IaC files, deployed Azure resources | | Phases | Discover → Architect → Scaffold → Deploy (self-contained, no external skill calls) | Deploy existing code without knowing which Azure services to use Check if your existing code is ready to deploy to Azure Move an existing app to Azure without rewriting or with minimal changes Get cost estimates before committing to infrastructure Understand architecture decisions and rejected alternatives Get answers to Azure architecture or service selection questions (e.g., "What database should I use?") Get guided Azure onboarding without prior experience | Scenario | Use Instead | |----------|-------------| | Run azd up or execute an existing deployment | azure
