# Azure Artifact Signing Skill This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Artifact Signing. Covers best practices, decision making, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. 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 > **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) This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content: - **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown. - **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown. ## Category Index | Category | Lines | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| | 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. | | Decision Making | L38-L43 | Pricing and SKU selection for Azure Artifact Signing and guidance to migrate from DGSSv2, including plan changes and transition steps. | | Security | L44-L51 | RBAC roles, identity validation lifecycle, Windows code integrity policy signing, and access control for secure use of Azure Artifact Signing | | 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. | | Integrations & Coding Patterns | L57-L60 | Configuring Artifact Signing with supported tools and workflows (e.g., CI/CD systems, package managers), including setup steps and patterns for integrating signing into build and release pipelines. | ### Best Practices | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Apply certificate lifecycle practices in Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/concept-certificate-management | ### Decision Making | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Choose and change Artifact Signing pricing SKUs | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-change-sku | | Migrate from DGSSv2 to Azure Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-device-guard-signing-service-migration | ### Security | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Understand Artifact Signing resources and RBAC roles | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/concept-resources-roles | | Manage Artifact Signing identity validation lifecycle | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-renew-identity-validation | | Sign Windows code integrity policies with Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-sign-ci-policy | | Assign Azure RBAC roles for Artifact Signing access | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/tutorial-assign-roles | ### Configuration | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Configure diagnostic settings and log routing for Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-sign-history | ### Integrations & Coding Patterns | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Configure supported signing integrations for Artifact Signing | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/artifact-signing/how-to-signing-integrations |
