Astro Deployment
Production deployment for Astro 6 across all major platforms — Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, and Node.js.
Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)
Before ANY implementation, use TeamCreate to spawn 3 agents:
- fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase - Analyze astro.config.mjs, output mode, and existing adapter
- fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert - Verify adapter docs via Context7/Exa for target platform
- mcp__context7__query-docs - Check Astro 6 adapter compatibility and breaking changes
After implementation, run fuse-ai-pilot:sniper for validation.
Overview
When to Use
- Deploying Astro to Cloudflare Workers with D1/KV/R2 bindings
- Configuring Vercel Serverless or Edge runtime with image CDN
- Setting up Netlify Edge Functions
- Running Astro as standalone Node.js server
- Implementing ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration) patterns
- Configuring edge middleware for auth/redirects
Adapter Matrix
| Platform | Package | Runtime | Notes |
|---|
| Cloudflare | @astrojs/cloudflare v13+ | workerd | Astro 6: astro dev runs on workerd |
| Vercel | @astrojs/vercel | Node/Edge | Image CDN built-in |
| Netlify | @astrojs/netlify | Edge | Deno-based edge functions |
| Node.js | @astrojs/node | Node | Standalone server mode |
Core Concepts
Output Modes
output: 'static' — Full SSG, no adapter neededoutput: 'server' — Full SSR, adapter required- Per-page: Mix with
export const prerender = true/false
Cloudflare Astro 6
Astro 6 runs astro dev on workerd — same runtime as production. Enables D1, KV, R2 bindings in local dev via platformProxy. No more simulation gaps. Requires @astrojs/cloudflare v13+ and Node.js 22+.
ISR Pattern
Astro has no native ISR. Implement with platform caching: Cloudflare KV as cache layer, or Vercel's Cache-Control with stale-while-revalidate.
Skew Protection
On Vercel, enable skew protection to prevent asset mismatches between old client and new server during deployments.

| Topic | Reference | When to Consult |
|---|
| Cloudflare | cloudflare-adapter.md | Workers, D1, KV, R2, wrangler |
| Vercel | vercel-adapter.md | Serverless, Edge, Image CDN |
| Netlify | netlify-adapter.md | Edge Functions, forms |
| Node.js | node-adapter.md | Standalone, Express integration |
| ISR Patterns | isr-patterns.md | Cache strategies, revalidation |
| Edge Middleware | edge-middleware.md | Auth, redirects, A/B testing |
Templates
Best Practices
- Match adapter to platform early - Switching adapters mid-project is painful
- Cloudflare: use v13+ for Astro 6 - Required for workerd local dev
- Node.js 22+ for Astro 6 - Drops Node 18/20 support
- Per-page prerender - Mix static and SSR for optimal performance
- Test bindings locally - Cloudflare platformProxy enables local D1/KV/R2
