Details
Deployment Scripts
scaffold:scripts creates templates under your local project scaffolding path so you can version and customize them. These are the scripts that site:deploy, cron:sync, and supervisor:sync execute on the server.
AI Agent Skills
scaffold:ai helps you bootstrap operationally safe agent behavior. It supports multi-agent scaffolding, generating skill files for multiple agent directories in a single run.
DeployerPHP auto-detects existing agent directories (.agents, .claude) in your project. If any are found, it scaffolds all detected directories automatically. If none exist, you'll see a multiselect prompt to choose which agent directories to create.
You'll choose from three permission tiers:
- Observer provides read-only access (view logs, server info)
- Debugger adds inspect and safe shell capabilities (the default)
- Admin grants full access to manage infrastructure
