Individual skill

deploy-model

Unified Azure OpenAI model deployment skill with intelligent intent-based routing. Handles quick preset deployments, fully customized deployments (version/SKU/capacity/RAI policy), and capacity discovery across regions and projects. USE FOR: deploy model, deploy gpt, create deployment, model deployment, deploy openai model, set up model, provision model, find capacity, check model availability, where can I deploy, best region for model, capacity analysis. DO NOT USE FOR: listing existing deployments (use foundry_models_deployments_list MCP tool), deleting deployments, agent creation (use agent/create), project creation (use project/create).

# Deploy Model

> **Scope — read this first.** This skill creates model deployments **out-of-band** via Azure CLI / MCP / portal. For azd-managed Foundry projects (those scaffolded from `azd ai agent init`), declare deployments in `azure.yaml services.ai-project.deployments[]` instead — `azd ai agent init` writes the entry from the sample manifest and `azd provision` creates the deployment through Bicep. See [foundry-agent/create/create-hosted.md](../../foundry-agent/create/create-hosted.md) for the Golden Path. Use this skill only for: (a) Foundry projects not managed by an azd project, (b) ad-hoc deployments outside the azd lifecycle.

Unified entry point for all Azure OpenAI model deployment workflows. Analyzes user intent and routes to the appropriate deployment mode.
