Scope

This skill:

• ✅ Guides architecture decisions
• ✅ Provides provisioning commands for user to run
• ✅ Documents infrastructure patterns

User-driven model:

• User provides cloud credentials when needed
• User runs provisioning commands
• Skill guides decisions and generates commands

This skill does NOT:

• ❌ Store or access cloud credentials directly
• ❌ Run provisioning commands automatically
• ❌ Modify infrastructure without user confirmation

For implementation: User runs commands skill provides, or uses server skill for execution.

Core Rules

1. User Runs Commands

Skill generates commands, user executes:

Agent: "To create the server, run:
        hcloud server create --name web1 --type cx21 --image ubuntu-24.04
        
        This requires HCLOUD_TOKEN in your environment."
User: [runs command]

2. Required Tools (User Installs)

Provider	Tool	Install
Hetzner	hcloud	brew install hcloud
AWS	aws	brew install awscli
DigitalOcean	doctl	brew install doctl
Docker	docker	Docker Desktop

3. Credential Handling

• User sets credentials in their environment
• Skill never stores or logs credential values
• Commands reference env vars: $HCLOUD_TOKEN, $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID

4. Architecture Guidance

Stage	Recommended
MVP	Single VPS + Docker Compose
Growth	Dedicated DB + load balancer
Scale	Multi-region + CDN
