## Description

Assess and improve the reliability posture of PaaS Applications (Azure Functions and Azure App Service). Scans deployed resources for zone redundancy, ZRS storage, health probes, and multi-region failover. Presents a feature-pivoted checklist, then drives staged remediation (CLI or IaC patches) end-to-end with user confirmation. WHEN: \"assess reliability\", \"check reliability\", \"zone redundant\", \"multi-region failover\", \"high availability\", \"disaster recovery\", \"single points of failure\", \"reliability posture\", \"resiliency\".

# Azure Reliability Assessment & Configuration

## Quick Reference

| Property | Details |
|---|---|
| Best for | Reliability posture assessment, zone redundancy enablement, multi-region failover setup |
| Primary capabilities | Reliability assessment table, Zone Redundancy Configuration, Multi-Region IaC Generation |
| Supported services | Azure Functions, App Service (Container Apps planned for a future version) |
| MCP tools | Azure Resource Graph queries, Azure CLI commands |

## When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when user wants to:
- "Assess my Function app's reliability"
- "Assess my Web app's reliability"
- "Check the reliability of my resource group" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Is my app zone redundant?" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Is my app service plan zone redundant?" 
- "Make my app zone redundant" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Make my app service plan zone redundant"
- "Set up multi-region failover for my app" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Check my reliability posture"
- "Find single points of failure" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Enable high availability for my app" (App Service and Functions resources only)
- "Check disaster recovery readiness"
- "Improve my app's resilience" (App Service and Functions resources only)

> **Scope note:** This skill currently covers **Azure Functions and Azure App Service** only. If the user asks about Azure Container Apps reliability, acknowledge that support is planned but not yet available, and only proceed with the parts that apply to App Service and Functions resources in scope.

## Prerequisites

- Authentication: user is logged in to Azure via `az login`
- Permissions: Reader access on target subscription/resource group (for assessment)
- Permissions: Contributor access (for configuration changes)
- Azure Resource Graph extension: `az extension add --name resource-graph`
