Deploy to AKS
Use when: deploying a web app/API to AKS; containerizing for Kubernetes; generating manifests; AKS CI/CD; DS001–DS013 failures.
Not for: provisioning clusters (azure-kubernetes), AKS Automatic readiness (azure-kubernetes-automatic-readiness), non-AKS targets.
Workflow
Requires: existing AKS cluster, az login, kubectl configured. Follow phases/quick-deploy.md. On failure: references/rollback.md.
