## AI interpretation — verify before relying

Provides ARM (Azure Resource Management) extensions to Azure Core, including authentication policies and HTTP logging specific to Azure management plane operations.

Designed as a transitive dependency for Azure SDKs but can be used directly for ARM-specific authentication and logging policies. Low install friction with minimal dependencies.
