Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter (.NET)

Overview

This public intake copy packages

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet

https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter (.NET) Centralized API inventory and governance SDK for managing APIs across your organization.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Environment Variables, Authentication, Error Handling, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
• Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Azure API Center SDK for .NET. Centralized API inventory management with governance, versioning, and discovery.
• Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
• Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
• Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

7. Create Environment

ApiCenterEnvironmentCollection environments = workspace.GetApiCenterEnvironments();

{
    Title = "Production",
    Description = "Production environment",
    Kind = ApiCenterEnvironmentKind.Production,

    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "team": {
            "type": "string",
            "title": "Owning Team"

        },
        "dataClassification": {

            "enum": ["public", "internal", "confidential"],
            "title": "Data Classification"
        }
    },
    "required": ["team"]
}
""";

    .GetApiCenterWorkspaceResource(workspaceResourceId)
    .GetAsync();

await foreach (ApiCenterApiResource api in workspace.GetApiCenterApis())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"API: {api.Data.Title}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Kind: {api.Data.Kind}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Stage: {api.Data.LifecycleStage}");
    
    // List versions
    await foreach (ApiCenterApiVersionResource version in api.GetApiCenterApiVersions())
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"  Version: {version.Data.Title}");
    }
}

// List environments
await foreach (ApiCenterEnvironmentResource env in workspace.GetApiCenterEnvironments())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Environment: {env.Data.Title} ({env.Data.Kind})");
}

// List deployments
await foreach (ApiCenterDeploymentResource deployment in workspace.GetApiCenterDeployments())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Deployment: {deployment.Data.Title}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  State: {deployment.Data.State}");
}

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Organize with workspaces — Group APIs by team, domain, or product
• Use metadata schemas — Define custom properties for governance
• Track lifecycle stages — Keep API status current (design → production → deprecated)
• Document environments — Include onboarding instructions and portal URIs
• Version consistently — Use semantic versioning for API versions
• Import specifications — Upload OpenAPI/GraphQL specs for discovery
• Link deployments — Connect APIs to their runtime environments

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated

SKILL.md

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
