SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It prevents unreliable, overcomplicated, and insecure hosting setups by turning vague infrastructure needs into a complete, practical deployment plan and configuration set.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Requirement-to-architecture translation: Reads .planning/infra-requirements.md (from /infra-grill) and extracts scale, geography, budget, reliability, complexity, and existing stack drivers.
  • Opinionated platform selection with migration clarity: Chooses hosting, database, storage, CDN, auth, email, monitoring, CI/CD, and scheduled tasks using simple decision trees prioritized for solo/small teams, with explicit migration paths.
  • Configuration + documentation output: Generates platform-ready config files and an INFRA_DECISIONS.md document that explains every choice in plain English, including cost projections and security checklist items.
  • Use case: When you’re starting a new project or changing platforms, you can go from requirements to a full hosting blueprint (e.g., Vercel + Neon + R2 + Sentry + GitHub Actions) without hand-wiring every decision.

Quick Start

Run /infra-grill to create .planning/infra-requirements.md, then ask the AI to execute /infra-architect to generate INFRA_DECISIONS.md and the hosting configuration files.

Frequently Asked Questions about infra-architect

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design hosting infrastructure from project requirements?

To design hosting infrastructure from project requirements, you input structured needs covering scale, budget, and geography. The system processes these drivers to output a complete hosting architecture, platform-ready configuration files, and an INFRA_DECISIONS.md document explaining every choice in plain English.

What is included in a complete cloud infrastructure architecture blueprint?

A complete cloud infrastructure architecture blueprint includes app hosting, database, file storage, CDN, auth, email, monitoring, CI/CD, and scheduled background tasks. It also provides explicit migration paths, cost projections, and a security checklist.

How do I generate CI/CD and monitoring configuration files for a new deployment?

You generate CI/CD and monitoring configuration files by feeding structured infrastructure requirements into an architecture generator. It applies opinionated decision trees optimized for small teams to produce platform-ready configs alongside an INFRA_DECISIONS.md document with cost projections.

What is the best way to choose a cloud platform for a solo developer or small team?

The best way to choose a cloud platform for a small team is using decision trees that prioritize simplicity and practical scaling. This approach evaluates your specific reliability, complexity, and budget drivers to select an opinionated stack like Vercel, Neon, and R2 with clear migration paths.

Do I need a requirements file before generating an infrastructure deployment plan?

Yes, you need a requirements file before generating an infrastructure deployment plan. The system requires reading a structured `.planning/infra-requirements.md` file to extract scale, geography, budget, and existing stack drivers needed to produce accurate hosting configurations.

When should I not use an automated infrastructure architecture generator?

You should not use an automated infrastructure architecture generator if your project lacks defined requirements or involves highly custom, non-standard platform dependencies. The tool relies on structured input and opinionated decision trees tailored for typical app hosting, database, and CI/CD scaling scenarios.
