Covers best practices, security, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. 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 | L32-L38 | Guidance on running Azure firmware analysis, reading SBOM extractor paths, and interpreting/prioritizing detected firmware vulnerabilities and weaknesses. | | Security | L39-L44 | Managing secure access to Azure Firmware Analysis using service principals and configuring role-based access control (RBAC) permissions for users and apps | | Integrations & Coding Patterns | L45-L51 | How to programmatically upload firmware for analysis in Azure using CLI, PowerShell, or Python, including auth, commands/scripts, and basic automation patterns. | | Deployment | L52-L57 | How to provision and deploy an Azure Firmware Analysis workspace using infrastructure-as-code tools: ARM templates, Bicep, and Terraform configuration and setup. | ### Best Practices | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Interpret SBOM extractor paths in firmware analysis | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/interpreting-extractor-paths | | Analyze firmware images with Azure firmware analysis | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/tutorial-analyze-firmware | | Interpret and prioritize firmware weaknesses data | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/understand-weaknesses-data | ### Security | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Automate firmware analysis with service principals | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/automate-firmware-analysis-service-principals | | Configure RBAC access for Azure firmware analysis | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/firmware-analysis-rbac | ### Integrations & Coding Patterns | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Upload firmware to Azure analysis using CLI | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-upload-firmware-using-azure-command-line-interface | | Upload firmware to Azure analysis with PowerShell | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-upload-firmware-using-powershell | | Upload firmware to Azure analysis using Python | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-upload-firmware-using-python | ### Deployment | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Deploy firmware analysis workspace via ARM template | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-firmware-analysis-arm | | Deploy firmware analysis workspace with Bicep | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-firmware-analysis-bicep | | Provision firmware analysis workspace using Terraform | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firmware-analysis/quickstart-firmware-analysis-terraform |
