Create SKILL.md with architecture overview, token API guidance (get_token vs get_token_info), MSAL three-tier integration model, sync/async split rules, DefaultAzureCredential chain details, managed identity backends, and common pitfalls. Includes reference docs for credential taxonomy, authentication flows, cross-cutting behaviors, and testing patterns. Registers azure-identity in the find-package-skill registry.

What
Add a package-specific skill for
azure-identityand register it in thefind-package-skillregistry.Why
azure-identityis entirely hand-authored (no TypeSpec, no code generation) with complex internal architecture: MSAL integration, managed identity environment dispatching, theDefaultAzureCredentialchain, and strict async parity requirements. AI agents applying generic SDK patterns to this package make common mistakes (e.g., missing async mirrors, breaking the DAC chain order, bypassing MSAL, hardcoding authority URLs).This skill encodes the tribal knowledge agents need to work on the package correctly.
