What it does
Deploy Diagnostics is an agent skill from EmeaAppGbb/spec2cloud. Diagnose and resolve Azure deployment failures by analyzing error output, checking Azure resource state, and suggesting fixes. Use when azd provision fails, azd deploy fails, smoke tests fail against live deployment, container images fail to push/pull, or any Phase 6 deployment error occurs. Trigger on deployment errors, infrastructure failures, or post-deploy smoke test failures.
Its SKILL.md is about 510 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 Testing & QA, covering QA and bug reports, Deployment and Containers. It works with Microsoft Azure. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Azd provision fails
- Azd deploy fails
- Smoke tests fail against live deployment
- Container images fail to push/pull
Example prompts
- “/deploy-diagnostics”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Parse error output — Identify the error type from AZD stdout/stderr
- Classify the error — Match against known patterns (see below)
- Check resource state — Verify Azure resource health if accessible
- Suggest fix — Provide specific remediation
- Verify fix — After applying, re-run the failed command
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e76618. 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:
az
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use az, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
Deploy Diagnostics loads about 511 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 101 tokens; SKILL.md has 126 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Known Failure Patterns
| Pattern | Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Quota exceeded | QuotaExceeded in error | Change region or request quota increase |
| Name conflict | ConflictError or DNS taken | Use a different environmentName |
| Image pull failure | ImagePullBackOff | Verify ACR push succeeded and identity has AcrPull role |
