What it does

Azure Caf Sync is an agent skill from aztfmod/terraform-provider-azurecaf. Fetch the latest CAF abbreviations page from Microsoft Learn and compare against resourceDefinition.json official.slug values. Reports drift where the provider's slug differs from the official CAF slug. Triggers on: weekly scheduled audit, manual sync check.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Microsoft Azure. The repository describes itself as: Terraform provider for the Terraform platform engineering for Azure. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • : weekly scheduled audit
  • Manual sync check

Example prompts

  • “/azure-caf-sync”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Fetch CAF abbreviations
  2. Extract current provider slugs
  3. Compare
  4. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ac74615. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • learn.microsoft.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Azure Caf Sync loads about 464 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 74 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~464

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Azure CAF Sync

Procedure

1. Fetch CAF abbreviations

Use Microsoft Docs MCP tools (microsoft_docs_fetch) to fetch the latest version:

URL: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/ready/azure-best-practices/resource-abbreviations

Extract all rows from the abbreviation table: resource name, abbreviation (slug), resource provider namespace.

2. Extract current provider slugs
bash
python3 -c "
import json
with open('resourceDefinition.json') as f:
    resources = json.load(f)
for r in resources:
    official = r.get('official', {})
    ns = official.get('resource_provider_namespace', '')
    official_slug = official.get('slug', '')
    print(f'{r[\"name\"]}|{r[\"slug\"]}|{official_slug}|{ns}')
" > /tmp/caf-current.txt
3. Compare

For each resource in the provider that has an official.resource_provider_namespace:

  • Find the matching entry in the CAF abbreviations page
  • Compare the provider's slug against the official CAF abbreviation
  • Flag mismatches
4. Report
## CAF Slug Drift Report

### Mismatches (<count>)
| Resource | Provider Slug | Official CAF Slug | Namespace |
|----------|--------------|-------------------|-----------|
| <name>   | <current>    | <official>        | <ns>      |

### New in CAF (not in provider) (<count>)
| Resource | CAF Slug | Namespace |
|----------|----------|-----------|
| <name>   | <slug>   | <ns>      |

### Summary
- Resources checked: <count>
- Matches: <count>
- Mismatches: <count>
- New resources in CAF: <count>
