Managing Medusa Cloud Resources
Operational guide for AI agents managing Medusa Cloud infrastructure through the mcloud CLI. Covers setup, deployments, debugging, environments, and variables.
Constraints
- Always pass
--jsonwhen parsing CLI output. Plaintext output is for humans and may change without warning. - Confirm context before mutating. Run
mcloud whoami --jsonbefore any state change. - Read before you write. Run a
getorlistbefore anydelete,redeploy, ortrigger-build. - Use
--yesfor destructive operations.deletecommands require--yesin non-interactive mode. - Production environments cannot be deleted.
mcloud environments deleteerrors on production by design. - Never pass
--revealunless the user explicitly asks. Secret values appear in terminal scrollback and logs. --jsonand--followare incompatible. Use bounded time windows (--from/--to) with--jsonfor programmatic log ingestion.
CRITICAL: Load Reference Files When Needed
Load these references based on what you're doing:
