azure-devops-cli
We need to translate the given English text into Thai. The text describes an agent skill for managing Azure DevOps resources via CLI. We must preserve the name "azure-devops-cli" if it appears, but it does not appear in the provided text. The text includes technical terms like Azure DevOps, CLI, PAT tokens, JMESPath, etc. We should keep those as is or translate if appropriate? The instruction says "Preserve product names, protocol names, URLs, numbers, and technical terms." So we keep Azure DevOps, CLI, PAT, JMESPath, etc. Also numbers like 2.81.0+ should be preserved. The translation should be natural Thai. Let's break down the text: "Manage Azure DevOps resources including projects, repos, pipelines, builds, work items, and service endpoints via CLI. Covers six major domains: Repos and PRs, Pipelines and Builds, Boards and Work Items, Variables and Agents, Organization and Security, and Advanced Usage patterns Requires Azure CLI 2.81.0+ with the azure-devops
