deploy

Apply a structured release specification to deploy database migrations, serverless functions, static sites, routes, and secrets with explicit replace or patch semantics per resource. Returns release ID, URLs, warnings, and progress log.

Instructions

Unified apply primitive. Accepts a structured ReleaseSpec — database (migrations + expose), value-free secrets.require/delete declarations, functions, site, site.public_paths, subdomains, and routes.replace web routes — with explicit replace vs patch semantics per resource. Migration entries use id for immutable versioned SQL or name for generated/idempotent content-tracked SQL; name compiles client-side to _<sha256(sql)[0:16]>. Use site.public_paths for clean static URLs such as /events backed by release asset events.html; explicit mode does not expose /events.html unless separately declared, while mode: 'implicit' restores filename-derived reachability and can widen access. Route entries map exact/final-wildcard browser paths like /admin and /admin/* to Node 22 Fetch Request -> Response functions, or exact GET/HEAD method-aware static aliases such as /events to { type: 'static', file: 'events.html' }; intentional read-only GET/HEAD wildcard function routes may set acknowledge_readonly: true. Direct /functions/v1/:name remains API-key protected. Secret values must be set first with set_secret, never placed in deploy specs. All bytes ride through CAS (no inline-body cap). Returns release_id, URLs, warnings, and a structured progress-event log. Stops before upload/commit on confirmation-required warnings unless reviewed codes are passed with allow_warning_codes or allow_warnings is true.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
baseNoDiff base. Default `{ release: 'current' }`. Use `{ release: 'empty' }` for a fresh deploy that fails if a release already exists.
i18nNoRouted-locale-context release slice. Omit to carry forward from base release; pass null to clear the slice; pass { defaultLocale, locales, detect? } to replace. Drives the negotiated locale that the gateway surfaces to routed HTTP function invocations via x-run402-locale and x-run402-default-locale request headers (omitted entirely when the active release has no i18n slice). Static-route hits do NOT receive locale negotiation.
siteNo
assetsNov1.48 unified-apply assets slice. Asset writes promote inside the same activation transaction as functions/site/secrets so a release flips atomically.
routesNoApply-v1 web routes. Omit or pass null to carry forward base routes; pass { replace: [] } to clear routes; pass { replace: [{ pattern, methods?, target: { type: 'function', name } }] } for functions or exact GET/HEAD { target: { type: 'static', file } } entries for method-aware static route aliases. Prefer site.public_paths for ordinary clean static URLs.
secretsNo
databaseNo
functionsNo
project_idYesProject ID to deploy to (from provision).
subdomainsNoAt most one subdomain per project — multi-element `set` is rejected with SUBDOMAIN_MULTI_NOT_SUPPORTED.
allow_warningsNoContinue past plan warnings that require confirmation. Default false: the tool stops before upload/commit so an agent can set missing secrets or inspect warnings.
idempotency_keyNoOptional client idempotency key. Combined with the project id and gateway-computed manifest digest to deduplicate retries.
allow_warning_codesNoContinue past specific reviewed plan warning codes. Prefer this to allow_warnings when only one known warning class is intentional.
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. Discloses critical behaviors: stops before upload on warnings, CAS-based bytes, secret values must be set separately, returns progress log, idempotency key, replace vs patch semantics per resource.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loaded with purpose, then systematically covers each resource type. Every sentence adds value. Structured in a logical order without redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a highly complex tool with 13 params and nested objects, the description covers all key aspects: what it does, how it handles each resource, warning behavior, return values. No output schema, but return values are described. Excellent completeness.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Adds significant meaning beyond schema: explains migration id vs name, public_paths modes (explicit/implicit), route acknowledge_readonly, secret handling, CAS usage. Schema coverage is 69%, but description adds high-level context the schema's property descriptions don't capture.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states 'Unified apply primitive' and lists all accepted resources (database, secrets, functions, site, subdomains, routes). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like deploy_function or deploy_site which handle single resources.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides some guidance like 'Use site.public_paths for clean static URLs' and contrasts migration id vs name. However, it doesn't explicitly say when to use this unified tool vs alternatives like deploy_function for single-function deploys.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
