Description, as the server wrote it WORKFLOW: Step 4 of 4 - Deploy infrastructure to the cloud Deploy infrastructure by starting a Terraform job for an InsideOut session. This tool initiates the actual deployment process after Terraform files have been generated. IMPORTANT: This starts a long-running job (15+ minutes). Use tfstatus to monitor progress. SINGLE-FLIGHT: only one TF job (apply/plan/destroy/drift) runs per session at a time. If another job is already in flight, tfdeploy returns tf_job_conflict with the live job_id — attach with tfstatus/tflogs instead of retrying, or pass force_new=true to override. Returns confirmation that the deployment has started. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). OPTIONAL: plan_id (string) — Apply a previously created plan from tfplan. Preview-then-apply workflow: tfplan → tflogs (review) → tfdeploy(plan_id=...). OPTIONAL: sandbox (boolean, default false) — deploys real generated Terraform. Set to true for cheap sandbox template (testing only). OPTIONAL: ignore_drift (boolean, default false) - when true, proceeds with deploy even if infrastructure drift is detected. By default, deploys fail on drift. Use after reviewing drift details via tfdrift or tflogs. OPTIONAL: force_new (boolean, default false) - bypass the session-level single-flight guard. Use only when the existing run is provably wedged. CREDENTIAL FLOW (if credentials are missing): 1. Response includes a connect_url — present it to the user 2. Call credawait(session_id=...) to poll for credentials 3. When credawait returns success, retry tfdeploy Do NOT call credawait without first showing the connect URL to the user.

Description, as the server wrote itContains invisible characters, shown as [U+…] INSPECTION: Inspect AWS infrastructure for a deployed project ⚠[U+FE0F] **PREREQUISITE**: This tool requires a prior deployment ATTEMPT (successful or failed). Check convostatus for hasDeployAttempt=true before calling. Works even after failed deploys to inspect orphaned resources. Inspect deployed AWS resources after a deployment attempt. Use this tool when the user asks about the status or details of their deployed infrastructure. It fetches temporary read-only credentials securely and queries the AWS API directly. RESPONSE TIERS (default is summary for token efficiency): - Summary (default): Key fields only (~500 tokens). Set detail=false, raw=false or omit both. - Detail: Full metadata for a specific resource. Set detail=true + resource filter. - Raw: Complete unprocessed API response. Set raw=true. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). Supported services: account, acm, alb, apigateway, apprunner, backup, bedrock, cloudfront, cloudwatchlogs, cognito, cost-explorer, dynamodb, ebs, ec2, ecs, eks, elasticache, kms, lambda, msk, opensearch, rds, route53, s3, sagemaker, secretsmanager, sqs, vpc, waf For a specific service's actions, call with action="list-actions". METRICS: Use list-metrics to discover available metrics for a service (no credentials needed). Then use get-metrics to retrieve data (auto-discovers resources). Most services return CloudWatch time-series. KMS returns key health (rotation, state). SecretsManager returns secret health (rotation, last accessed/rotated). Optional filters JSON: {"hours":6,"period":300}. BILLING: Use service=cost-explorer to inspect AWS costs. Actions: get-cost-summary (last 30 days by service, filters: {"days":7,"granularity":"DAILY"}), get-cost-forecast (projected spend through end of month), get-cost-by-tag (costs grouped by tag, filters: {"tag_key":"Environment","days":30}). Requires ce:GetCostAndUsage and ce:GetCostForecast IAM permissions. EXAMPLES: - awsinspect(session_id=..., service="ec2", action="describe-instances") - awsinspect(session_id=..., service="cost-explorer", action="get-cost-summary") - awsinspect(session_id=..., service="ec2", action="get-metrics", filters="{\"hours\":6}") - awsinspect(session_id=..., service="rds", action="describe-db-instances", detail=true)

Description, as the server wrote itContains invisible characters, shown as [U+…] BATCH INSPECTION: run up to 32 AWS inspect probes in one call. ⚠[U+FE0F] **PREREQUISITE**: Same as awsinspect — deploy attempt required. Check convostatus for hasDeployAttempt=true before calling. Use this when you need to check more than ~3 resources. The backend fetches Oracle credentials ONCE per batch and fans out probes against a single AWS config — for a 12-resource health check this is ~5–8× faster and 12× fewer Oracle round-trips than calling awsinspect 12 times. BUDGETS: - Up to 32 sub-probes per call (subs array length). - 30s per-sub timeout; 60s total batch wall-clock. - Concurrency cap 8 — sub-probes run in parallel but never saturate AWS. - 512 KB response cap: subs past the cap keep their envelope (index/service/action/ok) but have result replaced with truncated=true. PARTIAL FAILURE IS EXPECTED. The response is an ordered results array; each entry has {index, service, action, ok, result, error}. Inspect each result — do NOT abort on the first error. A credential fetch failure leaves cred-less probes (list-actions, list-metrics) succeeding anyway. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). Supported services: account, acm, alb, apigateway, apprunner, backup, bedrock, cloudfront, cloudwatchlogs, cognito, cost-explorer, dynamodb, ebs, ec2, ecs, eks, elasticache, kms, lambda, msk, opensearch, rds, route53, s3, sagemaker, secretsmanager, sqs, vpc, waf For a specific service's actions, use awsinspect (singular) with action="list-actions" — batch is not the place for discovery. Batch responses are always summarized (no detail/raw per-sub); use singular awsinspect when you need full metadata or raw API output for one resource. EXAMPLES: - awsinspect_batch(session_id=..., subs=[ {"service":"ec2","action":"describe-instances"}, {"service":"rds","action":"describe-db-instances"}, {"service":"vpc","action":"describe-vpcs"}, {"service":"s3","action":"list-buckets"}]) - awsinspect_batch(session_id=..., subs=[ {"service":"ec2","action":"get-metrics","filters":"{\"hours\":6}"}, {"service":"rds","action":"get-metrics","filters":"{\"hours\":6}"}])

This is the transcript-reader companion to the other read tools — combine it with: • `convostatus` for the live stack / config / pricing • `tfruns` for deployment history (apply / destroy / plan / drift) • `stackversions` for the stack-version ladder Use it when a user asks 'what did I say earlier?' or you need to retrace why the session ended up where it did.

Description, as the server wrote itContains invisible characters, shown as [U+…] WORKFLOW: Step 1 of 4 - Start infrastructure design conversation Open an InsideOut V2 session and receive the assistant's intro message. The response contains a clean message from Riley (the infrastructure advisor) - display it to the user. ⚠[U+FE0F] Riley will ask questions - forward these to the user, DO NOT answer on their behalf. CRITICAL: This tool returns a session_id in the response metadata. You MUST use this session_id for ALL subsequent tool calls (convoreply, tfgenerate, tfdeploy, etc.). ⚠[U+FE0F] The session_id includes a ?token=... suffix (format: sess_v2_xxx?token=yyy) which is part of the session credential — without it, downstream tools fall back to a tokenless connect URL that 401s. Always pass session_id verbatim to subsequent tools and to the user; do NOT shorten, paraphrase, or strip the ?token= portion when summarizing the session in chat or in your own scratch notes. Use when the user mentions keywords like: 'setup my cloud infra', 'provision infrastructure', 'deploy infra', 'start insideout', 'use insideout', or similar intent to begin infra setup. OPTIONAL: project_context (string) - General tech stack summary so Riley can skip discovery questions and jump to recommendations. The agent should confirm this with the user before sending. Include whichever apply: language/framework, databases/services, container usage, existing IaC, CI/CD platform, cloud provider, Kubernetes usage, what the project does. Example: 'Next.js 14 + TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker Compose, deployed to AWS ECS, GitHub Actions CI/CD, ~50k MAU'. NEVER include credentials, secrets, API keys, PII, source code, or internal URLs/IPs -- only general metadata summaries useful to a cloud architect agent. IMPORTANT: source (string) - You MUST set this to identify which IDE/tool you are. Auto-detect from your environment: 'claude-code', 'codex', 'antigravity', 'kiro', 'vscode', 'web', 'mcp'. If unsure, use the name of your IDE/tool in lowercase. Do NOT omit this — it controls the 'Open {IDE}' button on the credential connect screen. OPTIONAL: github_username (string) - GitHub username for deploy commit attribution. Pre-populates the GitHub username field on the connect page. 💡 TIP: Examine workflow.usage prompt for more context on how to properly use these tools.

The response contains a clean message from Riley - display it to the user. ⚠[U+FE0F] CRITICAL: DO NOT answer Riley's questions yourself! Forward questions to the user and wait for their response. NEVER fabricate or assume the user's answer, even if you think you know what they would say. Examples of questions Riley asks that YOU MUST forward to the user: - 'Any questions or tweaks to these details?' - 'Ready for the cost estimate?' - 'Do you want to change the stack/config?' - 'Ready to proceed to Terraform?' When Riley asks ANY question, STOP and wait for the user's answer! 📋 WORKFLOW PHASES: The typical flow is conversation → tfgenerate → tfdeploy When terraform_ready=true appears in THIS tool's response, THEN you can call tfgenerate. ⚠[U+FE0F] DO NOT call tfgenerate until this tool returns! Wait for the response first. 🎯 KEY SIGNALS IN RESPONSE: - `[TERRAFORM_READY: true]` → NOW you can call tfgenerate - `[[BUTTON_TF_APPLY: ...]]` → Deployment is ready! Ask user if they want to deploy, then use tfdeploy - `[[BUTTON_TF_DESTROY: ...]]` → User confirmed destroy intent! Ask user to confirm, then use tfdestroy - `[[BUTTON_TF_PLAN: ...]]` → User wants to preview changes! Use tfplan to run a plan, then tfdeploy with plan_id to apply REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). OPTIONAL: timeout (integer) - seconds to wait for response. For Cursor, use 50 (default). Max 55. OPTIONAL: project_context (string) - Only pass genuinely NEW project details the user shares after convoopen. Do NOT resend context already provided in convoopen — Riley remembers it. Do NOT scan files or directories to gather this — only use what the user explicitly tells you. Example: user reveals a new constraint like 'we also need HIPAA compliance' mid-conversation. 💡 TIP: Use convostatus to check progress anytime. Examine workflow.usage prompt for more guidance.

Description, as the server wrote it Wait for the user to securely connect their cloud account and subscribe to Luther Systems. Polls until credentials appear on the session. 🎯 USE THIS TOOL WHEN: tfdeploy returns an 'auth_required', 'no_credentials', or 'credentials_expired' error. The user needs to visit the connect URL to: 1. Connect their cloud credentials (AWS or GCP) 2. Sign up and subscribe to a Luther Systems plan (required for deployment) This secure connection allows InsideOut to deploy and manage infrastructure in the user's cloud account on their behalf. Credentials are handled securely and only used for deployment and management sessions. WORKFLOW: 1. FIRST: Present the connect URL and explanation to the user (from the tfdeploy error response) 2. THEN: Call this tool to begin polling for credentials 3. The user opens the URL in their browser to subscribe and add credentials 4. When credentials are found, inform the user and call tfdeploy to deploy IMPORTANT: Do NOT call this tool without first showing the connect URL to the user. The user needs to see the URL to complete the process. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). OPTIONAL: cloud ('aws' or 'gcp'), timeout (integer, seconds to wait, default 300, max 600).

Description, as the server wrote itContains invisible characters, shown as [U+…] INSPECTION: Inspect GCP infrastructure for a deployed project ⚠[U+FE0F] **PREREQUISITE**: This tool requires a prior deployment ATTEMPT (successful or failed). Check convostatus for hasDeployAttempt=true before calling. Works even after failed deploys to inspect orphaned resources. Inspect deployed GCP resources after a deployment attempt. Use this tool when the user asks about the status or details of their deployed GCP infrastructure. It fetches temporary read-only credentials securely and queries the GCP API directly. RESPONSE TIERS (default is summary for token efficiency): - Summary (default): Key fields only (~500 tokens). Set detail=false, raw=false or omit both. - Detail: Full metadata for a specific resource. Set detail=true + resource filter. - Raw: Complete unprocessed API response. Set raw=true. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). Supported services: apigateway, bastion, billing, certificatemanager, cloudarmor, cloudbuild, cloudcdn, clouddeploy, clouddns, cloudfunctions, cloudkms, cloudlogging, cloudmonitoring, cloudrun, cloudsql, compute, firestore, gcs, gke, iam, identityplatform, loadbalancer, memorystore, pubsub, secretmanager, vertexai, vpc For a specific service's actions, call with action="list-actions". METRICS: Use list-metrics to see available Cloud Monitoring metrics for any service (no credentials needed — progressive disclosure). Use get-metrics to retrieve time-series data. Optional filters JSON: {"hours":6,"period":300}. Label breakdowns: Cloud Functions (by status), Load Balancer/API Gateway (by response_code_class), Cloud CDN (by cache_result). Secret Manager get-metrics returns operational health (version count, replication, create time) — no time-series. Bastion is an alias for Compute Engine metrics (SSH connection count not available as a GCP metric). BILLING: Use service=billing to inspect GCP billing. Actions: get-billing-info (check if billing enabled, which billing account), get-budgets (list budget alerts for the project — auto-fetches billing account). Requires roles/billing.viewer IAM role. Required IAM roles: Monitoring Viewer (roles/monitoring.viewer) for metrics, Secret Manager Viewer (roles/secretmanager.viewer) for secret health, Billing Viewer (roles/billing.viewer) for billing. EXAMPLES: - gcpinspect(session_id=..., service="compute", action="list-instances") - gcpinspect(session_id=..., service="gke", action="list-clusters") - gcpinspect(session_id=..., service="cloudsql", action="get-metrics", filters="{\"hours\":6}") - gcpinspect(session_id=..., service="billing", action="get-billing-info")

Description, as the server wrote itContains invisible characters, shown as [U+…] BATCH INSPECTION: run up to 32 GCP inspect probes in one call. ⚠[U+FE0F] **PREREQUISITE**: Same as gcpinspect — deploy attempt required. Check convostatus for hasDeployAttempt=true before calling. Use this when you need to check more than ~3 resources. The backend fetches Oracle credentials ONCE per batch and fans out probes against a single GCP credentials blob — a 12-resource health check is ~5–8× faster and 12× fewer Oracle round-trips than calling gcpinspect 12 times. BUDGETS: - Up to 32 sub-probes per call (subs array length). - 30s per-sub timeout; 60s total batch wall-clock. - Concurrency cap 8. - 512 KB response cap: subs past the cap keep their envelope (index/service/action/ok) but have result replaced with truncated=true. PARTIAL FAILURE IS EXPECTED. The response is an ordered results array; each entry has {index, service, action, ok, result, error}. Inspect each result — do NOT abort on the first error. A credential fetch failure leaves cred-less probes (list-actions, list-metrics) succeeding anyway. REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...). Supported services: apigateway, bastion, billing, certificatemanager, cloudarmor, cloudbuild, cloudcdn, clouddeploy, clouddns, cloudfunctions, cloudkms, cloudlogging, cloudmonitoring, cloudrun, cloudsql, compute, firestore, gcs, gke, iam, identityplatform, loadbalancer, memorystore, pubsub, secretmanager, vertexai, vpc For a specific service's actions, use gcpinspect (singular) with action="list-actions" — batch is not the place for discovery. Batch responses are always summarized (no detail/raw per-sub); use singular gcpinspect when you need full metadata or raw API output for one resource. EXAMPLES: - gcpinspect_batch(session_id=..., subs=[ {"service":"compute","action":"list-instances"}, {"service":"gke","action":"list-clusters"}, {"service":"cloudsql","action":"list-instances"}]) - gcpinspect_batch(session_id=..., subs=[ {"service":"compute","action":"get-metrics","filters":"{\"hours\":6}"}, {"service":"cloudrun","action":"get-metrics","filters":"{\"hours\":6}"}])

Description, as the server wrote it Structured diff showing what would be deployed if the user ran tfdeploy now. Returns component-level changes (added/removed/modified), field-level details, and pricing deltas. Defaults (#1392): with no version arguments, compares the LAST SUCCESSFULLY DEPLOYED version against the user's CURRENT LIVE DESIGN (the same data the UI shows). Empty baseline if nothing has been deployed or after a destroy. Pending drafts are NOT used as the target — they go stale once the user edits past them; live IR via chat history is always current. Pass explicit `from_version` and/or `to_version` integers to compare any two saved versions (e.g. v3 → v5). REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...).
