Research Azure naming constraints and CAF abbreviations for a given resource type. Use when you need to look up the official CAF slug, naming rules (length, scope, valid characters), and derive validation/cleaning regex patterns for an Azure resource. Triggers on: CAF abbreviation lookup, Azure naming rules research, resource naming constraints.

Azure Naming Research
Procedure
1. Look up CAF abbreviation
Query the CAF abbreviations page for the official slug and resource provider namespace:
URL: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/ready/azure-best-practices/resource-abbreviations
Prefer Microsoft Docs MCP tools (microsoft_docs_search, microsoft_docs_fetch) when available.
Search by:
- Terraform resource name without
azurerm_prefix (e.g., "container app") - Resource provider namespace if known
- Common name (e.g., "Container Apps")
Extract: CAF abbreviation (slug), resource display name, resource provider namespace.
If not found, the resource is out-of-doc — set "out_of_doc": true in the JSON entry and omit official.slug and official.resource_provider_namespace.
2. Look up Azure naming rules
Query the naming rules page for constraints:
URL: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-name-rules
Find the section matching the resource provider namespace from step 1. Extract: scope, length (min-max), valid characters.
3. Derive field values
See references/regex-patterns.md for the regex conversion tables.
- scope mapping: "globally unique"→
"global", "resource group"→"resourceGroup", "within parent"→"parent", "subscription"→"subscription" - dashes:
trueif hyphens allowed - lowercase:
trueif only lowercase letters allowed - validation_regex and regex: Use the pattern tables in the reference file. Both MUST use escaped double quotes:
"\"pattern\""
Never guess at constraints — mark as UNKNOWN if not verifiable.
