AI agents entering a repository cold waste large amounts of context reconstructing repository intent, topology, and authoritative workflows. Humans do this naturally through exploration. Agents pay for it directly in tokens, latency, and incorrect assumptions.

The goal is not to teach the agent the repository. The goal is to route the agent toward the correct sources of truth as quickly as possible.

Creating terraform or other infrastructure as code for a new project can be daunting for some. This shows how you can easily crank out a new deployment to meet your requirements using Github copilot prompt files and a few free MCP servers. For the heck of it, we will also convert between two totally different cloud providers to deploy the same infrastructure.

Sadly, this often lands me into the trough of disillusionment quite quickly when exploring any new technology. On the flip side, it is through this process I often learn some great lessons. This article will cover lessons learned as it pertains to AI in an effort to help shortcut some of those that are starting to dive further into this incredible new world we are entering with AI.
