SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Choosing a deployment platform for an MVP is often driven by habit or hype rather than evidence. This Skill replaces guesswork with a structured process: a short interview, parallel web research on six candidate platforms, scored comparison, and anti-bias stress tests, ending in a written infrastructure decision record. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured platform evaluation: Scores Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, Fly.io, Railway, and Render against five agent-friendly criteria (CLI-first ops, managed infrastructure, agent-readable docs, stable deploy API, MCP integration), filtered by your tech stack as a hard constraint. - Anti-bias cross-checks: Runs devil's advocate, pre-mortem, and unknown-unknowns analyses on the top pick before the decision is finalized, surfacing hidden costs and failure modes. - Decision record output: Writes context/foundation/infrastructure.md with the scored comparison, operational story (previews, secrets, rollback, logs), risk register, and stack-specific getting-started steps. - Use Case: After defining your PRD and tech stack, run this Skill to decide between Fly.io and Cloudflare Workers for a Next.js MVP, with fresh pricing research and a documented rationale your team can audit later. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to research and recommend a deployment platform for your MVP using this skill after your tech stack is defined.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I choose a deployment platform for my MVP?▼

Run a structured evaluation: define your tech stack constraints, answer five questions about cost, scale, and team familiarity, then score candidate platforms against criteria like CLI-first operations and managed infrastructure. This Skill automates that process and writes a decision record.

Vercel vs Fly.io vs Cloudflare for MVP deployment?▼

The right choice depends on your stack and constraints. Vercel suits Next.js frontends, Fly.io supports persistent processes and containers, and Cloudflare excels at edge-first serverless. This Skill scores all three plus Netlify, Railway, and Render against your specific requirements.

Can I deploy WebSockets or background workers on serverless platforms?▼

Serverless-only platforms like Vercel and Netlify cannot run persistent connections or long-lived workers. If your app requires WebSockets or background processes, this Skill hard-filters those platforms out and favors container-based options like Fly.io or Railway.

Does this skill configure CI/CD or write Dockerfiles?▼

No. CI/CD pipeline setup, Docker image configuration, and production-scale architecture are explicitly out of scope. The Skill focuses only on researching and documenting the MVP platform decision, including getting-started commands for the chosen platform.

Why does platform research need fresh web searches instead of existing knowledge?▼

Platform pricing, feature availability, and beta status change frequently, so training-data impressions lead to wrong recommendations. The Skill requires live web research on current pricing pages and docs before scoring any platform.
