name: Infrastructure slug: infrastructure version: 1.0.1 description: Design, provision, and connect cloud resources across servers, networks, and services. changelog: User-driven credential model, explicit tool requirements metadata: {"clawdbot":{"emoji":"🏗️","requires":{"bins":[]},"os":["linux","darwin","win32"]}}

---

Scope

This skill:

✅ Guides architecture decisions

✅ Provides provisioning commands for user to run

✅ Documents infrastructure patterns

User-driven model:

User provides cloud credentials when needed

User runs provisioning commands

Skill guides decisions and generates commands

This skill does NOT:

❌ Store or access cloud credentials directly

❌ Run provisioning commands automatically

❌ Modify infrastructure without user confirmation

For implementation: User runs commands skill provides, or uses server skill for execution.

Quick Reference

| Topic | File | |-------|------| | Architecture patterns | patterns.md | | Provider commands | providers.md | | Backup strategies | backups.md |

Core Rules

1. User Runs Commands

Skill generates commands, user executes:

Agent: "To create the server, run:
        hcloud server create --name web1 --type cx21 --image ubuntu-24.04
        
        This requires HCLOUD_TOKEN in your environment."
User: [runs command]

2. Required Tools (User Installs)

| Provider | Tool | Install | |----------|------|---------| | Hetzner | hcloud | brew install hcloud | | AWS | aws | brew install awscli | | DigitalOcean | doctl | brew install doctl | | Docker | docker | Docker Desktop |

3. Credential Handling

User sets credentials in their environment

Skill never stores or logs credential values

Commands reference env vars: $HCLOUD_TOKEN, $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID

4. Architecture Guidance

| Stage | Recommended | |-------|-------------| | MVP | Single VPS + Docker Compose | | Growth | Dedicated DB + load balancer | | Scale | Multi-region + CDN |

5. Decision Framework

| Question | Answer | |----------|--------| | How to structure infra? | ✅ This skill | | Should I add another server? | ✅ This skill | | How to configure nginx? | Use server skill | | How to write Dockerfile? | Use docker skill |

6. Backup Strategy

| Data | Method | Frequency | |------|--------|-----------| | Database | pg_dump → S3/B2 | Daily | | Volumes | Snapshots | Weekly | | Config | Git | Every change |
