Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Static sites (HTML, CSS, JS only): Use Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages โ free tier often enough, no server management Dynamic sites with backend: Platform hosting (Railway, Render, Fly.io) handles servers without manual management WordPress or PHP: Managed WordPress hosts (WP Engine, Kinsta) or traditional shared hosting E-commerce: Shopify or platform-specific hosting โ payment security is not worth DIY risk Don't recommend VPS to someone uncomfortable with terminal โ managed hosting exists for a reason
"Unlimited" bandwidth and storage always have fair use limits โ read the terms Performance depends on neighbors โ bad neighbors slow your site SSH access may be limited or unavailable โ verify before assuming Cron jobs and background processes often restricted Fine for small sites and blogs โ not for growing businesses
Free tiers have limits โ check build minutes, bandwidth, function invocations Serverless functions have cold start latency โ first request after idle is slow Vendor lock-in varies โ static files portable, platform-specific features less so Preview deployments per branch are invaluable for review workflows Environment variables configured in dashboard โ never commit secrets to repo
Most platform hosts don't include databases โ need separate provider (PlanetScale, Supabase, Neon) Database location should match app location โ cross-region latency hurts performance Connection pooling often required for serverless โ direct connections exhaust limits Backups may or may not be included โ verify and test restore process
Hosting provider often offers DNS โ but separating them gives flexibility Point nameservers to host: simpler setup, less control Point A/CNAME records: more control, slightly more complex SSL certificates usually automatic with modern hosts โ verify HTTPS works after setup
Web hosting and email hosting are different services โ can use different providers Don't rely on free email with web hosting โ often limited and unreliable Google Workspace, Zoho, or dedicated email providers are more reliable MX records for email don't affect web hosting
Managed hosts usually include backups โ verify frequency and retention Download periodic backups locally โ host backups don't help if host goes away Know the restore process before you need it Database backups separate from file backups โ need both
Monthly vs yearly billing โ annual often 20-40% cheaper but commits you Traffic spikes can trigger overage fees โ understand the billing model Free tiers often enough for side projects โ don't overpay for unused capacity Compare total cost including add-ons โ base price rarely tells the whole story
Keep content in portable formats โ avoid excessive platform-specific features Document how the current setup works โ needed when moving Export data regularly โ don't assume you can always access it DNS propagation takes up to 48 hours โ plan migrations with overlap
Choosing by price alone โ support quality matters when things break Not testing staging before production โ preview environments prevent disasters Ignoring geographic location โ hosting in US for European users adds latency Assuming backups exist โ verify and test before you need them Overcomplicating for small sites โ a blog doesn't need Kubernetes
