# Azure Pipelines

> Expert knowledge for Azure Pipelines development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when setting up YAML CI/CD, service connections/Key Vault, self-hosted agents, IIS/Kubernetes deploys, or Git integrations, and other Azure Pipelines related development tasks. Not for Azure DevOps (use azure-devops), Azure Boards (use azure-boards), Azure Repos (use azure-repos), Azure Test Plans (use azure-test-plans).

# Azure Pipelines Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Pipelines. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

## How to Use This Skill

> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: Use the **Category Index** below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., `L35-L120`), use `read_file` with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., `[security.md](security.md)`), use `read_file` on the linked reference file

This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:
- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch`. Returns Markdown.
- **Fallback**: Use `WebFetch`. Returns Markdown.

## Category Index

| Category | Lines | Description |
|----------|-------|-------------|
| Troubleshooting | L33-L43 | Diagnosing and fixing Azure Pipelines issues: service connection/auth problems, web app deployments, triggers, queued-but-not-starting runs, and analyzing logs/run failures. |
| Best Practices | L44-L54 | Best practices for faster, reliable pipelines: caching, cross-platform scripts, handling flaky tests, parallel test execution (incl. VSTest), Test Impact Analysis, and UI test configuration. |
| Decision Making | L55-L61 | Guides for migrating CI/CD pipelines to Azure Pipelines, including from Jenkins/Travis and from classic UI pipelines to YAML, with patterns, pitfalls, and safe migration steps. |
| Architecture & Design Patterns | L62-L69 | Guidance on end-to-end CI/CD and DevOps architectures for Azure: baseline pipeline patterns, Web App deployment design, and IaaS/VM-focused DevTest and production pipelines. |
| Limits & Quotas | L70-L81 | Limits, quotas, and planning for Microsoft/GitHub-hosted agents, parallel jobs, concurrency, image deprecations, run retention, and handling large Universal Packages in Azure Pipelines. |
| Security | L82-L133 | Securing Azure Pipelines: agent auth, service connections, secrets/Key Vault, permissions and approvals, secure variables/templates, code scanning, policy gates, and protected resources. |
| Configuration | L134-L497 | Configuring Azure Pipelines: YAML/classic triggers, stages, jobs, variables, agents, containers, environments, artifacts, and detailed setup for built-in deployment/build/test tasks. |
| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L498-L525 | Patterns and examples for integrating Azure Pipelines with languages, tools, and services (Git, Key Vault, ServiceNow, Slack, ARM, Selenium), plus scripting, variables, and package caching. |
| Deployment | L526-L585 | End-to-end deployment with Azure Pipelines: agent setup (self-hosted/scale set/deployment groups), CI/CD for apps/containers/DBs, and using built-in tasks for IIS, Kubernetes, VMs, and Azure services. |
