What it does

Azure Appconfiguration Java is an agent skill from microsoft/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Azure App Configuration SDK for Java. Centralized application configuration management with key-value settings, feature flags, and snapshots. Triggers: "ConfigurationClient java", "app configuration java", "feature flag java", "configuration setting java", "azure config java".

Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/examples.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Microsoft Azure and Java. The repository describes itself as: Skills, MCP servers, Custom Agents, Agents.md for SDKs to ground Coding Agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • DevOps & Cloud work in your project

Example prompts

  • “ConfigurationClient java”
  • “app configuration java”
  • “feature flag java”
  • “/azure-appconfiguration-java”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use labels — Separate configurations by environment (Dev, Staging, Production)
  2. Use snapshots — Create immutable snapshots for releases
  3. Feature flags — Use for gradual rollouts and A/B testing
  4. Secret references — Store sensitive values in Key Vault
  5. Conditional requests — Use ETags for optimistic concurrency
  6. Read-only protection — Lock critical production settings
  7. Use Entra ID — Preferred over connection strings
  8. Async client — Use for high-throughput scenarios

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 354361d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are java, xml and bash).

    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

    Also links to:

    • github.com
    • central.sonatype.com
    • aka.ms

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS

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

Context cost

Azure Appconfiguration Java loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 277 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~9.9k

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.

Configuration Setting Operations

Create Setting (Add)

Creates only if setting doesn't exist:

java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.ConfigurationSetting;

ConfigurationSetting setting = configClient.addConfigurationSetting(
    "app/database/connection", 
    "Production", 
    "Server=prod.db.com;Database=myapp"
);
Create or Update Setting (Set)

Creates or overwrites:

java
ConfigurationSetting setting = configClient.setConfigurationSetting(
    "app/cache/enabled", 
    "Production", 
    "true"
);
Get Setting
java
ConfigurationSetting setting = configClient.getConfigurationSetting(
    "app/database/connection", 
    "Production"
);
System.out.println("Value: " + setting.getValue());
System.out.println("Content-Type: " + setting.getContentType());
System.out.println("Last Modified: " + setting.getLastModified());
Conditional Get (If Changed)
java
import com.azure.core.http.rest.Response;
import com.azure.core.util.Context;

Response<ConfigurationSetting> response = configClient.getConfigurationSettingWithResponse(
    setting,      // Setting with ETag
    null,         // Accept datetime
    true,         // ifChanged - only fetch if modified
    Context.NONE
);

if (response.getStatusCode() == 304) {
    System.out.println("Setting not modified");
} else {
    ConfigurationSetting updated = response.getValue();
}
Update Setting
java
ConfigurationSetting updated = configClient.setConfigurationSetting(
    "app/cache/enabled", 
    "Production", 
    "false"
);
Conditional Update (If Unchanged)
java
// Only update if ETag matches (no concurrent modifications)
Response<ConfigurationSetting> response = configClient.setConfigurationSettingWithResponse(
    setting,     // Setting with current ETag
    true,        // ifUnchanged
    Context.NONE
);
Delete Setting
java
ConfigurationSetting deleted = configClient.deleteConfigurationSetting(
    "app/cache/enabled", 
    "Production"
);
Conditional Delete
java
Response<ConfigurationSetting> response = configClient.deleteConfigurationSettingWithResponse(
    setting,     // Setting with ETag
    true,        // ifUnchanged
    Context.NONE
);

List and Filter Settings

List by Key Pattern

    .setKeyFilter("app/*");

PagedIterable<ConfigurationSetting> settings = configClient.listConfigurationSettings(selector);
for (ConfigurationSetting s : settings) {
    System.out.println(s.getKey() + " = " + s.getValue());
}
List by Label
java
SettingSelector selector = new SettingSelector()
    .setKeyFilter("*")
    .setLabelFilter("Production");

PagedIterable<ConfigurationSetting> settings = configClient.listConfigurationSettings(selector);
List by Multiple Keys
java

    .setKeyFilter("app/database/connection");

PagedIterable<ConfigurationSetting> revisions = configClient.listRevisions(selector);
for (ConfigurationSetting revision : revisions) {
    System.out.println("Value: " + revision.getValue() + ", Modified: " + revision.getLastModified());
}

Feature Flags

Create Feature Flag
java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting;
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.FeatureFlagFilter;
import java.util.Arrays;

FeatureFlagFilter percentageFilter = new FeatureFlagFilter("Microsoft.Percentage")
    .addParameter("Value", 50);

FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting featureFlag = new FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting("beta-feature", true)
    .setDescription("Beta feature rollout")
    .setClientFilters(Arrays.asList(percentageFilter));

FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting created = (FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting)
    configClient.addConfigurationSetting(featureFlag);
Get Feature Flag
java
FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting flag = (FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting)
    configClient.getConfigurationSetting(featureFlag);

System.out.println("Feature: " + flag.getFeatureId());
System.out.println("Enabled: " + flag.isEnabled());
System.out.println("Filters: " + flag.getClientFilters());
Update Feature Flag
java
featureFlag.setEnabled(false);
FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting updated = (FeatureFlagConfigurationSetting)
    configClient.setConfigurationSetting(featureFlag);

Secret References

Create Secret Reference
java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting;

SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting secretRef = new SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting(
    "app/secrets/api-key",
    "https://myvault.vault.azure.net/secrets/api-key"
);

SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting created = (SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting)
    configClient.addConfigurationSetting(secretRef);
Get Secret Reference
java
SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting ref = (SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting)
    configClient.getConfigurationSetting(secretRef);

System.out.println("Secret URI: " + ref.getSecretId());

Read-Only Settings

Set Read-Only
java
ConfigurationSetting readOnly = configClient.setReadOnly(
    "app/critical/setting", 
    "Production", 
    true
);
Clear Read-Only
java
ConfigurationSetting writable = configClient.setReadOnly(
    "app/critical/setting", 
    "Production", 
    false
);

Snapshots

Create Snapshot
java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.ConfigurationSnapshot;
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.ConfigurationSettingsFilter;
import com.azure.core.util.polling.SyncPoller;
import com.azure.core.util.polling.PollOperationDetails;

List<ConfigurationSettingsFilter> filters = new ArrayList<>();
filters.add(new ConfigurationSettingsFilter("app/*"));

SyncPoller<PollOperationDetails, ConfigurationSnapshot> poller = configClient.beginCreateSnapshot(
    "release-v1.0",
    new ConfigurationSnapshot(filters),
    Context.NONE
);
poller.setPollInterval(Duration.ofSeconds(10));
poller.waitForCompletion();

ConfigurationSnapshot snapshot = poller.getFinalResult();
System.out.println("Snapshot: " + snapshot.getName() + ", Status: " + snapshot.getStatus());
Get Snapshot
java
ConfigurationSnapshot snapshot = configClient.getSnapshot("release-v1.0");
System.out.println("Created: " + snapshot.getCreatedAt());
System.out.println("Items: " + snapshot.getItemCount());
List Settings in Snapshot
java
PagedIterable<ConfigurationSetting> settings = 
    configClient.listConfigurationSettingsForSnapshot("release-v1.0");

for (ConfigurationSetting setting : settings) {
    System.out.println(setting.getKey() + " = " + setting.getValue());
}
Archive Snapshot
java
ConfigurationSnapshot archived = configClient.archiveSnapshot("release-v1.0");
System.out.println("Status: " + archived.getStatus()); // archived
Recover Snapshot
java
ConfigurationSnapshot recovered = configClient.recoverSnapshot("release-v1.0");
System.out.println("Status: " + recovered.getStatus()); // ready
List All Snapshots
java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.SnapshotSelector;

SnapshotSelector selector = new SnapshotSelector().setNameFilter("release-*");
PagedIterable<ConfigurationSnapshot> snapshots = configClient.listSnapshots(selector);

for (ConfigurationSnapshot snap : snapshots) {
    System.out.println(snap.getName() + " - " + snap.getStatus());
}

Labels

List Labels
java
import com.azure.data.appconfiguration.models.SettingLabelSelector;

configClient.listLabels(new SettingLabelSelector().setNameFilter("*"))
    .forEach(label -> System.out.println("Label: " + label.getName()));

Async Operations

java
ConfigurationAsyncClient asyncClient = new ConfigurationClientBuilder()
    .connectionString(connectionString)
    .buildAsyncClient();

// Async list with reactive streams
asyncClient.listConfigurationSettings(new SettingSelector().setLabelFilter("Production"))
    .subscribe(
        setting -> System.out.println(setting.getKey() + " = " + setting.getValue()),
        error -> System.err.println("Error: " + error.getMessage()),
        () -> System.out.println("Completed")
    );

Error Handling

java
import com.azure.core.exception.HttpResponseException;

try {
    configClient.getConfigurationSetting("nonexistent", null);
} catch (HttpResponseException e) {
    if (e.getResponse().getStatusCode() == 404) {
        System.err.println("Setting not found");
    } else {
        System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
    }
}

Best Practices

  1. Use labels — Separate configurations by environment (Dev, Staging, Production)
  2. Use snapshots — Create immutable snapshots for releases
  3. Feature flags — Use for gradual rollouts and A/B testing
  4. Secret references — Store sensitive values in Key Vault
  5. Conditional requests — Use ETags for optimistic concurrency
  6. Read-only protection — Lock critical production settings
  7. Use Entra ID — Preferred over connection strings
  8. Async client — Use for high-throughput scenarios
