Use these checklists when performing complex setups. Copy the relevant checklist and track progress as you go.

Full environment setup (app + database + cache + domain)

- [ ] Create the environment
- [ ] Provision the database (`database-cluster:create` then `database:create`)
- [ ] Provision the cache (`cache:create`)
- [ ] Set environment variables (`environment:variables`)
- [ ] Create and attach any secrets (`secret:create` then `environment-secret:attach`)
- [ ] Attach custom domain (`domain:create` then `domain:verify`)
- [ ] Deploy (`deploy` then `deploy:monitor`)
- [ ] Verify the deployment is live

New app from scratch

- [ ] Run `cloud ship -n` with required options
- [ ] Monitor deployment status
- [ ] Set environment variables if needed
- [ ] Verify the app is accessible

Adding a database to an existing environment

- [ ] Check existing database clusters (`database-cluster:list --json -n`)
- [ ] Create a new cluster if needed (`database-cluster:create --json -n`)
- [ ] Create the database on the cluster (`database:create --json -n`)
- [ ] Update environment variables with connection details if needed
- [ ] Redeploy if the app needs to pick up new config

Adding a cache to an existing environment

- [ ] Check existing caches (`cache:list --json -n`)
- [ ] Create the cache (`cache:create --json -n`)
- [ ] Update environment variables with cache connection details if needed
- [ ] Redeploy if the app needs to pick up new config

Custom domain setup

- [ ] Create the domain (`domain:create --json -n`)
