Prepare cloud deployment files with Autohand Code is a cloud-readiness workflow that prepares application packaging, infrastructure files, environment configuration, permissions notes, and validation steps before deployment. ### At a glance | Question | Answer | | --- | --- | | Best for | apps moving from local development to managed cloud hosting, container apps, function apps, and Terraform or Bicep preparation | | Primary inputs | Target cloud platform and service type; Build command, runtime, environment variables, and secrets; Infrastructure preference, permissions, and deployment constraints | | Autohand Code returns | Deploy-ready infrastructure and app packaging with validation and permission notes. | | Avoid when | the app architecture, target platform, or deployment owner is undecided | ### How Autohand Code handles this workflow 1. Inspects app runtime, build output, ports, storage, and dependencies. 2. Generates infrastructure and packaging files that match the target platform. 3. Documents required environment values and permissions. 4. Returns validation commands before any deploy is attempted. ### Best inputs - Target cloud platform and service type - Build command, runtime, environment variables, and secrets - Infrastructure preference, permissions, and deployment constraints ### Strong prompt autohand -p "Prepare this app for cloud deployment with infrastructure files, config, and validation steps" ### Autohand Code CLI options - Use `/skills use azure-prepare` or the matching cloud preparation skill for platform-specific files. - Run `autohand -p "Prepare this app for cloud deployment with infrastructure files, config, and validation steps"` with the target service. - Use `/plan` when app code, infrastructure, and secrets need owner review. ### Review before accepting Review generated infrastructure, app packaging, env handling, permissions notes, and pre-deploy validation commands. ### Source and validation signals Autohand AI maintains this workflow as first-party product guidance for Autohand Code.
