## What it does

This skill searches and provisions infrastructure without manual sign-ups across multiple websites. It queries the Stripe catalog, initializes local configuration, and configures resources like databases, caches, or hosting providers.

Under the hood, the skill uses the official `projects` CLI plugin. It tracks infrastructure state inside the `.projects/` folder and updates the project `.env` file directly. Do not edit `.env` by hand. The CLI acts as the single authority and overwrites unmanaged lines.

Stripe CLI version 1.40.0 or higher is required before starting. If your Stripe account lacks Projects access or prompts for browser authentication, automated execution halts until you finish onboarding manually.

## Requirements
- Works with: Stripe, PostgreSQL
