AI Agent Cloudflare Deployment Guide

This document defines the standard operating specifications and conventions for AI Agents (and automated deployment scripts) deploying EdgeEver on Cloudflare.

💡 Core Principle: Pure Serverless architecture running entirely within Cloudflare free limits—no VPS or server purchasing, no Docker or SSL certificate configuration required.


Standard Automated Deployment Steps

  1. Fork Repository

    • Fork tianma-if/edgeever to the target GitHub account.
  2. Enable Workflow

    • In the Actions tab of the Forked repository, enable the Update deployed EdgeEver automatic update workflow (required on public forks: scheduled workflows are disabled by default).
    • An ordinary Fork is a deployment mirror by default. No update variable is required: the workflow applies the selected upstream Release's product snapshot to main before triggering Cloudflare.
    • The updater preserves the Fork's complete .github/workflows/** directory and its two updater helper scripts as a stable local bootstrap layer. Official packaging, signing, testing, and Release workflows remain guarded to tianma-if/edgeever and are never rewritten by downstream product updates.
    • Only a Fork that intentionally maintains application-code changes should create the Actions repository variable EDGE_EVER_PRESERVE_FORK_CHANGES=true. This opts into merges and requires the owner to resolve future conflicts; it is not needed for normal deployments.
  3. Cloudflare Project Import

    • Log into the Cloudflare Workers & Pages console and import the Fork repository.
    • Configure the project to use the repository root, the production main branch, and read the root wrangler.toml.
  4. Resource Bindings & Secrets

    • D1 Database Binding: Binding name DB, associated with a database named exactly edgeever.
    • R2 Bucket Binding: Binding name RESOURCES, associated with a globally unique R2 Bucket.
    • Admin username: Configure EDGE_EVER_AUTH_USERNAME; it defaults to admin and can be replaced with a custom username.
    • Worker Secret: Add secret EDGE_EVER_AUTH_PASSWORD for initial admin password.
    • Keep this password only as a Worker runtime Secret; do not copy it into Workers Builds variables. The standard deploy entrypoint reuses and verifies the existing Secret.
  5. Configure Workers Builds Commands

    • In the Cloudflare project build settings, set the standard commands:

      Build command: bun install --frozen-lockfile && EDGE_EVER_DEPLOYMENT_TRIGGER=main_push EDGE_EVER_DEPLOYMENT_METHOD=cloudflare_workers_builds bun run build:cloudflare
      Deploy command: bun run deploy:cloudflare-builds
      
    • The deploy command automatically resolves the D1 UUID from the edgeever database name and writes it only to a temporary generated Wrangler configuration. Users do not need to edit wrangler.toml or copy a D1 ID into a build variable.

    • Ensure the Workers Builds API token can read and edit D1. An advanced deployment that uses a differently named database must set the build variable EDGE_EVER_D1_DATABASE_ID explicitly.

  6. Start Initial Build & Verify Service

    • Trigger the initial build. Once deployed, run the following automated verifications:
      • Check https://<your-worker-domain>/api/health returns HTTP 200 with JSON {"ok": true}.
      • Check https://<your-worker-domain>/api/openapi.json loads the OpenAPI schema properly.
      • Verify login API using the configured EDGE_EVER_AUTH_USERNAME (default admin) and EDGE_EVER_AUTH_PASSWORD.
  7. Verify Upstream Update Channel

    • Manually trigger Update deployed EdgeEver once in the Fork's Actions tab.
    • Open the job Summary and confirm it reports Fork mode mirror, the upstream target (stable Release or edge main), and either an update publish or an explicit already aligned result.
    • Confirm Cloudflare Deployments builds the published main commit when a push occurred.
    • Do not edit deployment files or rely on GitHub Sync fork for routine upgrades; the workflow is the only synchronization path needed by a normal deployment Fork. Use Sync fork once only when an old Fork must receive a newer updater workflow itself, then return to Update deployed EdgeEver.
