entra-app-registration
**WORKFLOW SKILL** — Guides Microsoft Entra ID app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and MSAL integration. WHEN: "create app registration", "register Azure AD app", "configure OAuth", "add API permissions", "generate service principal", "MSAL example", "Entra ID setup". DO NOT USE FOR: Azure RBAC (azure-rbac), Key Vault audits (azure-compliance), resource security scanning (azure-compliance).

Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is an excellent skill description that hits all the key criteria. It provides specific capabilities, rich natural trigger terms, explicit when/when-not guidance, and clear boundaries against related skills. The 'DO NOT USE FOR' section with named alternative skills is a particularly strong differentiator.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, MSAL integration. Also includes negative boundaries (Azure RBAC, Key Vault audits, resource security scanning) which further clarify scope. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (guides app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, MSAL integration) and 'when' (explicit WHEN clause with trigger phrases). Also includes a 'DO NOT USE FOR' section that further clarifies boundaries. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'create app registration', 'register Azure AD app', 'configure OAuth', 'add API permissions', 'generate service principal', 'MSAL example', 'Entra ID setup'. These are realistic phrases users would naturally use. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive with explicit 'DO NOT USE FOR' clauses referencing specific other skills (azure-rbac, azure-compliance), which directly minimizes conflict risk. The domain is clearly scoped to Entra ID/OAuth/MSAL. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-organized skill that excels at progressive disclosure and conciseness, serving as an effective hub document that routes to detailed references. Its main weaknesses are the lack of any inline executable code or commands (everything actionable is deferred) and the absence of validation checkpoints in the multi-step workflow. Adding even one concrete CLI command or code snippet and explicit verification steps would significantly improve it.
Suggestions
Add at least one concrete, executable example inline — e.g., the Azure CLI command to register an app (`az ad app create --display-name 'MyApp'`) — so the skill body itself is actionable without loading references.
Add explicit validation checkpoints to the Core Workflow, e.g., 'Verify registration: `az ad app show --id <app-id>`' after step 1, and 'Test token acquisition before deploying' after step 5.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is lean and well-structured. The opening sentence about Entra ID being 'Microsoft's cloud identity and access-management service' is borderline unnecessary but brief enough not to be penalizing. Everything else earns its place — rules are crisp, the workflow is a numbered summary, and details are deferred to references. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides clear structural guidance (5-step workflow, rules, library names) but lacks any executable code or concrete commands directly in the SKILL.md. All actionable content is deferred to reference files. While the references are well-signaled, the body itself reads more as a table of contents than an actionable guide. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 5-step core workflow is clearly sequenced and logically ordered, but there are no explicit validation checkpoints or feedback loops (e.g., 'verify the app registration succeeded before proceeding to configure authentication'). For a multi-step process involving credential creation and security-sensitive operations, the absence of validation steps caps this at 2. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Excellent progressive disclosure structure. The SKILL.md serves as a clear overview with well-signaled, one-level-deep references. The reference index table at the bottom provides easy navigation with 'When to Load' guidance. Content is appropriately split between the overview and detailed reference files. | 3 / 3 |
