Sample Repos

If the launch wizard already selected a sample, skip the picker and clone that sample directly (see the table below). Otherwise, present this exact picker via vscode_askQuestions:

{
  "questions": [{
    "header": "Sample project",
    "question": "Which sample would you like to start with?",
    "options": [
      { "label": "AKS Store Demo", "description": "Microservices app — 4 services (Node.js, Go, Rust) + MongoDB + RabbitMQ", "recommended": true },
      { "label": "Azure Voting App", "description": "Simple two-container app — Python/Flask + Redis" },
      { "label": "Contoso Real Estate", "description": "Full-stack JavaScript — Next.js + Fastify + PostgreSQL" }
    ]
  }]
}

After the user picks, clone with run_in_terminal:

Sample	Clone command
AKS Store Demo	git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/aks-store-demo.git
Azure Voting App	git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/azure-voting-app-redis.git
Contoso Real Estate	git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/contoso-real-estate.git

After cloning, do a quick structure scan to confirm the profile — the paths below are the expected layout, but samples change. Use search/codebase to verify each service's build context, Dockerfile path, and entry-point file actually exist before relying on them. Then present the (corrected) profile and confirm it via vscode_askQuestions ("Looks good, continue to Configure" recommended). Skip the Discovery questions — but never skip this structure check — then go straight to Phase 2.

AKS Store Demo (monorepo, services under src/): store-front (Node.js, :8080, context src/store-front), order-service (Node.js, :3000, context src/order-service), product-service (Go, :3002, context src/product-service), makeline-service (Rust, :3001, context src/makeline-service). Each service dir is its own build context and ships a Dockerfile. Deps: MongoDB, RabbitMQ. Has K8s manifests, GitHub Actions.

Azure Voting App (Azure-Samples/azure-voting-app-redis): azure-vote (Python/Flask, :80). Build context azure-vote/, Dockerfile azure-vote/Dockerfile, entry point azure-vote/azure-vote/main.py — note the nested dir, a classic flat-structure trap. Deps: Redis. Has K8s manifests. No GitHub Actions.

Contoso Real Estate (monorepo, packages under packages/): portal (Next.js, :3000, context packages/portal), api (Fastify, :3001, context packages/api). Deps: PostgreSQL. Partial Dockerfiles (generate the missing ones), no K8s manifests, has GitHub Actions.
