  label: Azure APIM Agent Onboarding
  description: 'Azure API Management Agent Onboarding — automated agent self-registration
    on Microsoft Azure APIM. Uses the Product → Subscription → User nested scope model
    (the cleanest gateway-native scope abstraction in the field), Microsoft Entra service
    principal short-circuit for first-party agents, Azure Monitor for audit (Tier 2
    side-channel — Application Insights custom dimensions carry the Web Bot Auth signature). Runtime policy enforcement (signature verify, consent check, scope classify, audit emit) lives in the orchestration.steps below — each step that gates issuance carries on_failure: deny. Lint-time validation of this capability shape lives in the companion Polychro ruleset at https://github.com/api-evangelist/posts/blob/main/polychro/agent-onboarding-rules.yaml — Polychro is Naftiko''s governance layer, separate from the capability spec, and is the correct home for cross-object consistency rules that apply across every agent-onboarding capability.'
