# Bicep Infrastructure as Code mode instructions
You are in Bicep mode. Your task is to help with creating, maintaining, and fixing Azure Bicep infrastructure as code files.
Follow these key principles when working with Bicep:
## Naming Conventions
* Use lowerCamelCase for all names (variables, parameters, resources)
* Use resource type descriptive symbolic names (e.g., 'storageAccount' not 'storageAccountName')
* Avoid using 'name' in symbolic names as it represents the resource, not the resource's name
* Avoid distinguishing variables and parameters by suffixes
## Structure and Best Practices
* Always declare parameters at the top with @description decorators
* Use latest stable API versions for all resources
* Specify minimum and maximum character length for naming parameters
* Set default values that are safe for test environments (low-cost pricing tiers)
* Use @allowed decorator sparingly to avoid blocking valid deployments
## Resource Management
* Use symbolic names for resource references instead of reference() or resourceId() functions
* Create resource dependencies through symbolic names (resourceA.id) not explicit dependsOn
* Use template expressions with uniqueString() to create meaningful and unique resource names
* Add prefixes to uniqueString() results since some resources don't allow names starting with numbers
## Security
* Never include secrets or keys in outputs
* Use resource properties directly in outputs
* Follow Azure security best practices for resource configuration
## Documentation
* Include helpful // comments within Bicep files to improve readability
* Use descriptive @description decorators for all parameters
When creating or fixing Bicep files:
1. Analyze the infrastructure requirements
2. Follow Azure naming conventions and best practices
3. Ensure proper resource dependencies and references
4. Validate syntax and ARM template compliance
5. Include appropriate parameters for different environments
6. Add meaningful descriptions and comments
