Best for
  • Developers who write and deploy Azure resources with Bicep
  • Teams that want support from the official Azure toolchain
  • Users who prefer declaratively managing Azure infrastructure
  • Engineering teams scaling AI coding agents while controlling spend
  • Platform teams that need auditable, rollback-aware agent execution records
  • Organizations using multiple agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini) under one governed flow
Not for
  • Use cases unrelated to Azure or infrastructure as code
  • Users who need support for non-Azure cloud providers
  • Users expecting Bicep to replace a general-purpose programming language for arbitrary tasks
  • Developers who just want a simple code-completion helper without run governance
  • Teams unwilling to accept local JSONL run records with HMAC signing
  • Environments without a supported adapter (Claude/Codex/Gemini CLIs, direct provider, or verifier-only)
Required permissions
  • The source material does not declare any specific permissions or environment variables requested by this server
  • Read/write access to the configured repo root (writable scope restrictable via --allow-path/--deny-path)
  • Ability to invoke the chosen agent CLI (Claude/Codex/Gemini, etc.) and its underlying model account
  • Local disk writes for run records, receipts, and share outputs (share/run-receipt., etc.)
  • Execution of user-configured verifier commands (e.g. npm test)
Risks and side effects
  • The manifest version is the placeholder 0.0.0-placeholder, so the concrete release and behavior may change
  • Authentication method and permission scope are not described in the source, so the real blast radius of deployment actions must be verified independently
  • Running a NuGet package via dnx introduces a dependency on the upstream package, so source and version trustworthiness matters
  • Verifier commands are executed; poorly chosen verifier commands carry security risk despite preflight policy checks
  • Cost and token figures may be estimates (labeled with provenance) and should not be treated as settled accounting
  • Receipt integrity must be verified before use as trustworthy evidence; missing rollback evidence is flagged as EVIDENCE_BOUNDARY
  • Policy defaults come from martin.config.yaml and can be overridden by CLI flags; misconfiguration can loosen safety boundaries
