Proposed fix: [Azure model router] Custom routing with Anthropic Claude models fails with 'InvalidResourceProperties' unless Claude is deployed in the same Foundry account with a matching SKU
Recommended action: Deploy the Claude models from the Foundry catalog into the same account (matching SKU) first, then reference them in routing.models.
Option: Deploy Claude first [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Azure OpenAI (Microsoft Foundry) / Model router custom deployment
Steps:
1. Deploy each Claude model in the same Foundry account/SKU
2. Retry the model router deployment
Expected: Router deployment succeeds
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
