Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided Assessment: Walks through infrastructure choices using a resolution cascade (Argument > Adoption > Assessment).
  • Automated Adoption: Writes or updates infrastructure decisions directly into adoption files.
  • Decision Recording: Creates formal ADRs for infrastructure choices.
  • Use Case: When starting a new project, this Skill helps determine the most suitable cloud provider, CI/CD tools, and deployment patterns based on project needs and existing guidelines.

FAQPage Schema
How do I define an infrastructure strategy for a new project?

To define an infrastructure strategy, this Skill evaluates cloud providers, CI/CD pipelines, deployment patterns, and IaC approaches against project context, then records the chosen decisions in adoption files and ADRs.

What is the best way to document cloud adoption and deployment decisions?

The best way to document cloud adoption decisions is to use a resolution cascade that writes directly to adoption files and generates formal ADRs, ensuring infrastructure choices are recorded idempotently.

How does the resolution cascade work for evaluating infrastructure choices?

The resolution cascade evaluates infrastructure choices by prioritizing Arguments, then existing Adoption files, and finally Assessment rules to propose cloud, CI/CD, and deployment patterns based on project context.

Do I need existing infrastructure guidelines to use this infrastructure assessment?

You do not need existing infrastructure guidelines, as the assessment reads available project context to propose cloud and CI/CD decisions, filling in gaps where prior adoption documentation is missing.

Can I automate creating ADRs for CI/CD and cloud provider selections?

You can automate creating ADRs for CI/CD and cloud provider selections by running this Skill, which records infrastructure decisions formally in ADRs and updates adoption files during the assessment workflow.

Are there limitations when defining IaC approach and deployment patterns automatically?

A limitation when defining the IaC approach automatically is that the Skill requires adherence to the agentskills.io standard for idempotent workflow execution, meaning it operates within that specific structured automation framework.
