What this skill does
Railway Deploy Deploy code from the current directory to Railway using railway up. When to Use User asks to "deploy", "ship", "push code" User says "railway up" or "deploy to Railway" User wants to deploy local code changes User says "deploy and fix any issues" (use --ci mode) Modes Detach Mode (default) Starts deploy and returns immediately. Use for most deploys. CI Mode Streams build logs until complete. Use when user wants to watch the build or needs to debug issues. When to use CI mode: User says "deploy and watch", "deploy and fix issues" User is debugging build failures User wants to see build output Deploy Specific Service Default is linked service. To deploy to a different service: Deploy to Unlinked Project Deploy to a project without linking first: Requires both --project and --environment flags. CLI Options Flag Description ------ ------------- -d, --detach Don't attach to logs (default) -c, --ci Stream build logs, exit when done -s, --service <NAME> Target service (defaults to linked) -e, --environment <NAME> Target environment (defaults to linked) -p, --project <ID> Target project (requires --environment) [PATH] Path to deploy (defaults to current directory) Directory Linking Railway CLI walks UP the directory tree to find a linked project. If you're in a subdirectory of a linked project, you don't need to relink. For subdirectory deployments, prefer setting rootDirectory via the railway-environment skill, then deploy normally with railway up. After Deploy Detach mode Use railway-deployment skill to check build status (with --lines flag). CI mode Build logs stream inline. If build fails, the error will be in the output. Do NOT run railway logs --build after CI mode - the logs already streamed. If you need more context, use railway-deployment skill with --lines flag (never stream). …
