Agentic InfraOps brings guardrails to Azure IaC

This is less about letting agents “run infra” and more about wrapping them in a workflow that makes their output reviewable, repeatable, and boring enough for real teams to trust.

• –The guardrail stack matters more than the model choice: approval gates, validators, and circuit breakers are doing the real work here.
• –Zero-hardcoded-value rules and cost governance make this feel like platform engineering, not a demo that stops at template generation.
• –The repo’s layered knowledge model - agents, skills, instructions, registries, plus MCP hooks - is a serious attempt to turn context into an asset instead of a prompt pile.
• –The tradeoff is operational complexity: teams adopting this will need to maintain the workflow machinery as carefully as the IaC it emits.
