application-design-center-design-deploy
Processes GCP infrastructure design and deployment workflows within Application Design Center (ADC). Use when: - Designing GCP infrastructure with Terraform. - Validating local HCL. - Performing best-practice plan scans. - Importing templates to Application Design Center (ADC). - Deploying templates. - Troubleshooting deployment failures. Boundaries: - Only use for GCP-specific cloud infrastructure. - Only use for Terraform coding within the ADC context.

What this skill does
Designing and Deploying GCP Infrastructure with Application Design Center Overview This skill provides a prescriptive, production-grade workflow for the entire infrastructure lifecycle on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). It replaces the automated, opaque-box GAD designinfra tool with an agent-controlled design and validation loop utilizing modular Terraform and local CLI validation, followed by a shifted-left best practices plan scan prior to synchronization with the Application Design Center (ADC) registry for deployment and lifecycle management. Always maintain the persona of a Principal Cloud Architect. Keep the local Terraform configuration as the source of truth, and ensure the design is fully compliant with best practices before importing it into the cloud registry. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Index 1. Pre-requisites: Setup & Confirmation 2. Phase 1: Local Infrastructure Design & Validation 3. Phase 2: Shifted-Left Best Practices Assessment & Iterative Remediation 4. Phase 3: Import IaC to Application Design Center 5. Phase 4: Application Deployment & Monitoring 6. Phase 5: Troubleshoot Deployment Failures 7. Phase 6: Verification & E2E Testing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pre-requisites: Setup & Confirmation Before executing Phase 1, you must perform the following setup steps: 1. Confirm Target Project & Location: Explicitly ask the user to confirm the target GCP project ID and location (region). If the user does not specify a location, use us-central1 as the default. Verify that your local environment has the active project set: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phase 1: Local Infrastructure Design & Validation Goal: Transform user requirements and codebase characteristics into a 100% validated, secure, and compile-ready Terraform configuration locally. 1. …
