Multi-step deployment agent for full-stack apps. Build → Test → GitHub → Cloudflare Pages with human approval at each step.

personAuthor: sherajdevhubclawhub

deploy-agent

Deploy full-stack applications via a multi-step workflow with human approval at each stage.

Quick Start

# Install via ClawdHub
clawdhub install deploy-agent

# Initialize a new deployment
deploy-agent init my-app

# Check status
deploy-agent status my-app

# Continue through steps
deploy-agent continue my-app

Workflow Steps

| Step | Command | Description | Requires Approval | |------|---------|-------------|-------------------| | 1 | deploy-agent init <name> | Start deployment | ✅ Design phase | | 2 | deploy-agent build <name> | Build app | ✅ Before testing | | 3 | deploy-agent test <name> | Test locally | ✅ Before GitHub | | 4 | deploy-agent push <name> | Push to GitHub | ✅ Before Cloudflare | | 5 | deploy-agent deploy <name> | Deploy to Cloudflare | ✅ Final |

Commands

Initialize Deployment

deploy-agent init my-app

Creates a new deployment state and waits for design input.

Check Status

deploy-agent status my-app

Shows current step, approvals, and deployment info.

Continue

deploy-agent continue my-app

Get guidance on what to do next in the current step.

Build (Step 2)

deploy-agent build my-app

After designing with C.R.A.B, run this to build the app.

Test (Step 3)

deploy-agent test my-app

Verify the app is running locally before pushing.

Push to GitHub (Step 4)

deploy-agent push my-app [repo-name]

Creates GitHub repo and pushes code. Default repo name = app name.

Deploy to Cloudflare (Step 5)

deploy-agent deploy my-app [custom-domain]

Deploys to Cloudflare Pages. Default domain: {name}.sheraj.org

Cancel

deploy-agent cancel my-app

Aborts and cleans up the deployment.

List

deploy-agent list

Shows all active deployments.

Example Session

# Start new deployment
$ deploy-agent init my-blog
🚀 Deployment initialized: my-blog
Step 1: Design your app with C.R.A.B

# ... design phase with C.R.A.B ...

$ deploy-agent build my-blog
🚀 Build complete! Step 2: Local Testing
Start dev server: cd my-blog && npm run dev

# ... test locally ...

$ deploy-agent push my-blog
🚀 GitHub repository ready!
Say 'deploy-agent deploy my-blog' to deploy to Cloudflare

$ deploy-agent deploy my-blog my-blog.sheraj.org
🎉 Deployment complete!
App live at: https://my-blog.sheraj.org

State Management

State stored in: ~/.clawdbot/skills/deploy-agent/state/{deployment-name}.json

{
  "name": "my-blog",
  "step": 5,
  "status": "deployed",
  "created_at": "2026-01-18T08:00:00Z",
  "repo_url": "https://github.com/user/my-blog",
  "domain": "https://my-blog.sheraj.org"
}

Requirements

| Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | gh | GitHub repo creation and management | | wrangler | Cloudflare Pages deployment | | git | Version control | | jq | JSON parsing (for state management) |

Configuration

Cloudflare token should be configured in ~/.wrangler.toml:

[account]
api_token = "your-cloudflare-token"

Notes

  • Each deployment is independent
  • State persists across sessions
  • Human approval required at each major step
  • Use "cancel" to abort anytime

Next.js + Cloudflare D1 Deployment Guide

This section covers common pitfalls and fixes for deploying Next.js apps with D1 on Cloudflare Pages.

Pre-Deployment Checklist

| Check | Command | Fix if Failed | |-------|---------|---------------| | Next.js version | npm list next | npm install next@15.5.2 | | Package lock sync | rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json && npm install | Commit lock file | | Cloudflare adapter | npm list @cloudflare/next-on-pages | npm install -D @cloudflare/next-on-pages | | wrangler installed | npm list wrangler | npm install -D wrangler |

Required Configuration

1. package.json

{
  "dependencies": {
    "next": "15.5.2",
    "react": "^18.3.1",
    "react-dom": "^18.3.1"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@cloudflare/next-on-pages": "^1.13.16",
    "wrangler": "^4.x"
  }
}

2. wrangler.toml

name = "my-app"
compatibility_date = "2026-01-18"
compatibility_flags = ["nodejs_compat"]

[[d1_databases]]
binding = "DB"
database_name = "my-db"
database_id = "your-db-id"

3. API Routes (each file)

import { getRequestContext } from '@cloudflare/next-on-pages';

export const runtime = 'edge';

export async function GET() {
  const { env } = getRequestContext();
  const { results } = await env.DB.prepare("SELECT * FROM tasks").all();
  return Response.json({ data: results });
}

Cloudflare Pages Build Settings

| Setting | Value | |---------|-------| | Build command | npx @cloudflare/next-on-pages | | Output directory | .vercel/output/static | | Functions | Enable (for D1 API routes) |

Common Issues & Fixes

| Issue | Error | Fix | |-------|-------|-----| | Lock file mismatch | npm ci can only install packages when your package.json and package-lock.json are in sync | rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json && npm install && git add package-lock.json | | Next.js version | peer next@">=14.3.0 && <=15.5.2" from @cloudflare/next-on-pages | Downgrade to next: "15.5.2" | | API routes not edge | The following routes were not configured to run with the Edge Runtime | Add export const runtime = 'edge'; | | D1 access pattern | Using context.env.DB | Use getRequestContext().env.DB | | Missing types | TypeScript errors for D1 bindings | Create env.d.ts with CloudflareEnv interface |

CSS Fix (Scrollbar Flicker)

html {
  overflow-x: hidden;
  scrollbar-gutter: stable;
}
body {
  overflow-x: hidden;
}

Post-Deployment

  1. Cloudflare Dashboard → Settings → Functions
  2. Add D1 binding: Variable name DB → Select your database
