What problem does it solve? Engineering agents often lack durable domain knowledge when recommending Azure DevOps implementations, leading to shallow or outdated advice. This Skill provides a self-contained, chapter-indexed knowledge base of 25 engineering books across 12 domains so an agent can ground its recommendations in established patterns before proposing CI/CD, Kubernetes, or platform designs. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Two-Stage Retrieval: Search the machine-readable chapter-index.json (331 chapters with summaries, topics, concepts, and search terms), then open only the exact chapter sections needed instead of loading entire books. - Domain Application Checklists: Twelve domain files (CI/CD design patterns, Kubernetes platform, GitOps delivery, .NET engineering, AI agent engineering, and more) translate book concepts into Azure DevOps assessment and architecture guidance. - Evidence and Citation Discipline: Enforces a source hierarchy where live customer evidence and current first-party documentation outrank book patterns, with mandatory stub-and-chapter citation labels. - Use Case: When asked to design environment approvals and pipeline templates in Azure Pipelines, the agent searches the chapter index, loads the relevant CI/CD chapters, and cites them as Book pattern (2491, ch. 3) while verifying current behavior against Microsoft documentation. ## Quick Start Use the domain-context skill to find book-backed guidance on structuring Azure Pipelines YAML templates with environment approvals and cite the supporting chapters.
