  • Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets.

Install with your agent

Agent handoff

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.

  1. Download the package from Yavira.
  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Azure Identity SDK for Python

Authentication library for Azure SDK clients using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).

Installation

pip install azure-identity

Environment Variables

# Service Principal (for production/CI) AZURE_TENANT_ID=<your-tenant-id> AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id> AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret> # User-assigned Managed Identity (optional) AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<managed-identity-client-id>

DefaultAzureCredential

The recommended credential for most scenarios. Tries multiple authentication methods in order: from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential from azure.storage.blob import BlobServiceClient # Works in local dev AND production without code changes credential = DefaultAzureCredential() client = BlobServiceClient( account_url="https://<account>.blob.core.windows.net", credential=credential )

Customizing DefaultAzureCredential

# Exclude credentials you don't need credential = DefaultAzureCredential( exclude_environment_credential=True, exclude_shared_token_cache_credential=True, managed_identity_client_id="<user-assigned-mi-client-id>" # For user-assigned MI ) # Enable interactive browser (disabled by default) credential = DefaultAzureCredential( exclude_interactive_browser_credential=False )

ManagedIdentityCredential

For Azure-hosted resources (VMs, App Service, Functions, AKS): from azure.identity import ManagedIdentityCredential # System-assigned managed identity credential = ManagedIdentityCredential() # User-assigned managed identity credential = ManagedIdentityCredential( client_id="<user-assigned-mi-client-id>" )

ClientSecretCredential

For service principal with secret: from azure.identity import ClientSecretCredential credential = ClientSecretCredential( tenant_id=os.environ["AZURE_TENANT_ID"], client_id=os.environ["AZURE_CLIENT_ID"], client_secret=os.environ["AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET"] )

AzureCliCredential

Uses the account from az login: from azure.identity import AzureCliCredential credential = AzureCliCredential()

ChainedTokenCredential

Custom credential chain: from azure.identity import ( ChainedTokenCredential, ManagedIdentityCredential, AzureCliCredential ) # Try managed identity first, fall back to CLI credential = ChainedTokenCredential( ManagedIdentityCredential(client_id="<user-assigned-mi-client-id>"), AzureCliCredential() )

Getting Tokens Directly

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential credential = DefaultAzureCredential() # Get token for a specific scope token = credential.get_token("https://management.azure.com/.default") print(f"Token expires: {token.expires_on}") # For Azure Database for PostgreSQL token = credential.get_token("https://ossrdbms-aad.database.windows.net/.default")

Async Client

from azure.identity.aio import DefaultAzureCredential from azure.storage.blob.aio import BlobServiceClient async def main(): credential = DefaultAzureCredential() async with BlobServiceClient( account_url="https://<account>.blob.core.windows.net", credential=credential ) as client: # ... async operations pass await credential.close()

Best Practices

Use DefaultAzureCredential for code that runs locally and in Azure Never hardcode credentials β€” use environment variables or managed identity Prefer managed identity in production Azure deployments Use ChainedTokenCredential when you need a custom credential order Close async credentials explicitly or use context managers Set AZURE_CLIENT_ID for user-assigned managed identities Exclude unused credentials to speed up authentication

Category context

Agent frameworks, memory systems, reasoning layers, and model-native orchestration.
