3> **AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE — MANDATORY COMPLIANCE**
4>
5> **PREREQUISITE**: The **azure-validate** skill **MUST** be invoked and completed with status `Validated` BEFORE executing this skill.
6 
7> **⛔ STOP — PREREQUISITE CHECK REQUIRED**
8> Before proceeding, verify BOTH prerequisites are met:
9>
10> 1. **azure-prepare** was invoked and completed → `.azure/deployment-plan.md` exists
11> 2. **azure-validate** was invoked and passed → plan status = `Validated`
12>
13> If EITHER is missing, **STOP IMMEDIATELY**:
14> - No plan? → Invoke **azure-prepare** skill first
15> - Status not `Validated`? → Invoke **azure-validate** skill first
16>
17> **⛔ DO NOT MANUALLY UPDATE THE PLAN STATUS**
18>
19> You are **FORBIDDEN** from changing the plan status to `Validated` yourself. Only the **azure-validate** skill is authorized to set this status after running actual validation checks. If you update the status without running validation, deployments will fail.
20>
21> **DO NOT ASSUME** the app is ready. **DO NOT SKIP** validation to save time. Skipping steps causes deployment failures. The complete workflow ensures success:
