Covers best practices, decision making, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.89## How to Use This Skill1011> **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 file1213> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: If `metadata.generated_at` is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If `mcp_microsoftdocs` tools are not available, suggest the user install it: [Installation Guide](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/mcp/blob/main/README.md)1415This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:16- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown.17- **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown.1819## Category Index2021| Category | Lines | Description |22|----------|-------|-------------|23| Best Practices | L33-L37 | Guidance on managing signing certificates end-to-end: rotation, renewal, expiration handling, key protection, and lifecycle policies for Azure Artifact Signing. |24| Decision Making | L38-L43 | Pricing and SKU selection for Azure Artifact Signing and guidance to migrate from DGSSv2, including plan changes and transition steps. |25| Security | L44-L51 | RBAC roles, identities, and validations for Artifact Signing, plus secure signing of Windows code integrity policies and access control configuration. |26| Configuration | L52-L56 | Configuring diagnostic settings for Artifact Signing, enabling and routing logs to destinations like Log Analytics, Storage, and Event Hubs for monitoring and analysis. |27| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L57-L60 | How to integrate Azure Artifact Signing with supported tools and CI/CD systems, configure signing workflows, and apply recommended coding and automation patterns. |2829### Best Practices30| Topic | URL |31|-------|-----|32| Apply certificate lifecycle practices in Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/concept-certificate-management |3334### Decision Making35| Topic | URL |36|-------|-----|37| Choose and change Artifact Signing pricing SKUs | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-change-sku |38| Migrate from DGSSv2 to Azure Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-device-guard-signing-service-migration |3940### Security41| Topic | URL |42|-------|-----|43| Understand Artifact Signing resources and RBAC roles | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/concept-resources-roles |44| Manage Artifact Signing identity validations securely | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-renew-identity-validation |45| Sign Windows code integrity policies with Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-sign-ci-policy |46| Assign Azure RBAC roles for Artifact Signing resources | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/tutorial-assign-roles |4748### Configuration49| Topic | URL |50|-------|-----|51| Configure diagnostic settings and log routing for Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-sign-history |5253### Integrations & Coding Patterns54| Topic | URL |55|-------|-----|56| Configure Artifact Signing integrations for supported tools | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-signing-integrations |
