Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
windows_first
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily through the exclusive use of PowerShell for Azure Resource Graph (ARG) query examples, without providing equivalent Bash or Linux shell examples. Additionally, the use of PowerShell syntax (e.g., | %{ ... }) in Azure CLI command pipelines suggests a Windows-first approach, which may not work as written on Linux or macOS shells. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns, and scheduling examples reference crontab but do not show Linux-native command-line usage.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash/sh examples alongside PowerShell for ARG queries, using az graph query or equivalent.
  • Replace PowerShell pipeline syntax (| %{ ... }) with Bash-compatible syntax (e.g., xargs or while read loops) for Azure CLI commands.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for all CLI commands and queries.
  • Include notes or examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for command scheduling and scripting.
  • Where possible, use generic Azure CLI syntax that works on all platforms, or provide both Windows and Linux variants.
