cloud-administration skillA

cloud-administration is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: Administers the cloud the company runs on rather than the one it sells — tenant and subscription structure, the SaaS estate and who owns each app, identity as the real perimeter, cloud spend that arrives as a surprise, and what the provider does not do for you. Use this to structure subscriptions or tenants, get control of sprawling SaaS, cut a cloud bill, work out who owns an application nobody admits to buying, or decide what corporate workloads belong in cloud at all..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Cloud administration

Corporate cloud is bought, not architected. Someone needed a tool, expensed it, and it entered the
estate without a review, an owner, or an offboarding path. The characteristic failure is not a bad
design — it is discovering the estate years later, one invoice at a time.

This is the cloud the business runs on. For the cloud a product is built on — environments,
infrastructure as code, scaling, region failure — see `technology:cloud-infrastructure`. The two
follow different rules and the boundary is worth keeping sharp.

## Structure the tenant before you need to

Subscription and account structure encodes what you can later separate: billing, access, policy,
and blast radius. Retrofitting it means moving live workloads, so the cheap moment is the first
one.

A workable default is to separate by what you would want to bill, govern, or lose independently —
production corporate services, non-production, and anything with a distinct compliance obligation.
Resist a subscription per team; teams reorganize, and the structure outlives them.

Tag at creation with owner, cost center, and environment, and enforce it with policy rather than
…
