ak-cloud-deploy

ak-cloud-deploy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yaalalabs/agent-kernel. It costs 157 tokens per session (13,875 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A deployment guide for Agent Kernel projects on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or Kubernetes. Kubernetes is software for running and managing containerized applications across servers.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for deploying Agent Kernel projects as serverless or containerized applications, including on-premises Kubernetes clusters and AWS setups with synchronous, asynchronous, WebSocket, or streaming execution.
Why use it?
It lays out the platform, runtime, and execution choices needed to put an agent project into production. It also checks whether the project has the expected files before deployment.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is package_path = "../dist".

Good fit It is for deploying Agent Kernel projects as serverless or containerized applications, including on-premises Kubernetes clusters and AWS setups with synchronous, asynchronous, WebSocket, or streaming execution.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ak-cloud-deploy scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Deploy to Cloud

Use this skill to deploy your Agent Kernel project to AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Instructions for the Agent

When the user wants cloud deployment, follow this workflow.

Step 1: Identify the Project

Check for:

  • pyproject.toml with agentkernel dependency
  • agent entry file (app.py, lambda.py, or similar)
  • config.yaml

If missing, suggest ak-init first.

Step 2: Ask Deployment Questions

  1. Target platform: AWS, Azure, GCP, or Kubernetes (on-prem / baremetal / EKS via the Helm chart; see the On-Prem / Kubernetes section)?
  2. Runtime mode:
  • Serverless
  • Containerized
  1. Execution pattern (AWS only):
  • Synchronous HTTP (rest_sync, supports standard or queue/scalable mode; AWS serverless or containerized)
  • Asynchronous REST (rest_async, queue/scalable mode; AWS serverless or containerized)
  • WebSocket full-response (async, works with or without queue mode — queue_mode = false runs the agent inline, queue_mode = true enqueues to a separately-scalable Agent Runner) — AWS serverless or AWS containerized/ECS
  • WebSocket token streaming (stream, works with or without queue mode, same as async above) — AWS serverless or AWS containerized/ECS; also available via SSE (POST /api/v1/chat with execution.mode: stream, no Terraform changes required) wherever the built-in FastAPI REST server runs: local/self-hosted, AWS ECS single-container REST, Azure Container Apps, GCP Cloud Run — not on AWS Lambda or Azure Functions, which use WebSocket instead
  1. Scalability (AWS serverless only): standard or queue/scalable mode?
  2. Session store: Redis, Valkey (AWS only), DynamoDB (AWS), Cosmos DB (Azure), Firestore (GCP)?
  3. Security: custom authorizer required (AWS serverless only)?
  4. Resource naming: a single prefix applied to every resource name (e.g. myapp-dev-chat).

Step 3: Choose the Correct Terraform Module

Use official modules:

  • AWS serverless: yaalalabs/ak-serverless/aws
  • AWS containerized: yaalalabs/ak-containerized/aws
  • Azure serverless: yaalalabs/ak-serverless/azurerm
  • Azure containerized: yaalalabs/ak-containerized/azurerm
  • GCP serverless: yaalalabs/ak-serverless/google
  • GCP containerized: yaalalabs/ak-containerized/google

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
