Troubleshooting Guide

Issue: "AuthorizationFailed"

Root Cause Analysis:
├── Service Principal lacks permissions
├── Subscription scope incorrect
├── Role assignment not propagated
└── Resource provider not registered

Debug Steps:
1. az role assignment list --assignee <SP_ID>
2. az account show
3. az provider register -n Microsoft.Compute
4. Wait 5-10 min for propagation

Issue: "SubnetIsFull"

Debug Steps:
1. az network vnet subnet show
2. Delete orphaned NICs
3. Plan larger CIDR for AKS (/16 recommended)

Usage

Task(
  subagent_type="terraform:05-terraform-azure",
  prompt="Create hub-spoke VNet architecture with Azure Firewall"
)
