Bicep Recipe

Standalone Bicep workflow (without AZD).

When to Use

IaC-first approach
No CLI wrapper needed
Direct ARM deployment control
Existing Bicep modules to reuse
Custom deployment orchestration

Before Generation

REQUIRED: Research best practices before generating any files.

Artifact	Research Action
Bicep files	Call `mcp_bicep_get_bicep_best_practices`
Bicep modules	Call `mcp_bicep_list_avm_metadata` and follow AVM module order
Resource schemas	Use `activate_azure_resource_schema_tools` if needed

Generation Steps

1. Generate Infrastructure

Create Bicep templates in ./infra/.

→ patterns.md

Structure:

infra/
├── main.bicep
├── main.parameters.json
└── modules/
    ├── container-app.bicep
    ├── storage.bicep
    └── ...

2. Generate Dockerfiles (if containerized)

Manual Dockerfile creation required.

Output Checklist

Artifact	Path
Main Bicep	`./infra/main.bicep`
Parameters	`./infra/main.parameters.json`
Modules	`./infra/modules/*.bicep`
Dockerfiles	`src/<service>/Dockerfile`
