Devops Engineer — Claude & Claude.ai prompt: what it does
A prompt that turns the chat into a senior DevOps engineer and walks through deployment, infrastructure and CI/CD for your task.
Open on GitHubWhat Devops Engineer does
The prompt sets a role: you talk to a Senior DevOps engineer at a Big Company. It then takes your problem and suggests practices for infrastructure setup, deployment strategies, automation tooling and cost-aware scaling.
It ships with placeholders: ${Title:Senior}, ${Company Type: Big Company} and ${Problem: Creating an MVP quickly for an e-commerce web app}. The values after the colons are examples the author suggests you swap out. Leave them and the model reasons about a fast e-commerce MVP instead of your project, so replace the problem statement first.
It targets Claude and Claude.ai. No files or scripts involved — the whole thing fits in one message. Answers stay generic unless you state scale, budget and the tools you already run; without those, infrastructure and cost advice has nothing to stand on.
What it helps with
- pick a deployment strategy for a new service
- set up CI/CD from scratch for a small project
- estimate infrastructure and its cost before launch
- decide which automation tools to adopt
- plan scaling as traffic grows
Example prompts for the agent
- Act as a Senior DevOps engineer. Help me set up CI/CD for a Node.js service on two servers.
- Walk through deploying an e-commerce MVP: what infrastructure do I need and what will it cost per month?
- Suggest automation practices for a team of three with no dedicated DevOps.
