The command line has a shortcut in YAML: steps.script.

  workingDirectory: #
  displayName: #
  failOnStderr: #
  env: { string: string } # mapping of environment variables to add

Running batch and .CMD files

Azure Pipelines puts your inline script contents into a temporary batch file (.cmd) in order to run it. When you want to run a batch file from another batch file in Windows CMD, you must use the call command, otherwise the first batch file is terminated. This will result in Azure Pipelines running your intended script up until the first batch file, then running the batch file, then ending the step. Additional lines in the first script aren't run. You should always prepend call before executing a batch file in an Azure Pipelines script step.

Important

You may not realize you're running a batch file. For example, npm on Windows, along with any tools that you install using npm install -g, are actually batch files. Always use call npm <command> to run NPM commands in a Command Line task on Windows.
