Deploying Astro 7 apps — @astrojs/cloudflare (Workers, D1, KV, R2), @astrojs/vercel (Serverless/Edge, Image CDN), @astrojs/netlify (Edge Functions), @astrojs/node (standalone), ISR patterns, edge middleware, skew protection. Use for any deployment configuration.

Astro Deployment

Production deployment for Astro 7 across all major platforms — Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, and Node.js.

Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY implementation, use TeamCreate to spawn 3 agents:

  1. fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase - Analyze astro.config.mjs, output mode, and existing adapter
  2. fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert - Verify adapter docs via Context7/Exa for target platform
  3. mcp__context7__query-docs - Check Astro 7 adapter compatibility and breaking changes

After implementation, run fuse-ai-pilot:sniper for validation.


Overview

When to Use

  • Deploying Astro to Cloudflare Workers with D1/KV/R2 bindings
  • Configuring Vercel Serverless or Edge runtime with image CDN
  • Setting up Netlify Edge Functions
  • Running Astro as standalone Node.js server
  • Implementing ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration) patterns
  • Configuring edge middleware for auth/redirects

Adapter Matrix

| Platform | Package | Runtime | Notes | |----------|---------|---------|-------| | Cloudflare | @astrojs/cloudflare v13+ | workerd | Astro 6: astro dev runs on workerd | | Vercel | @astrojs/vercel | Node/Edge | Image CDN built-in | | Netlify | @astrojs/netlify | Edge | Deno-based edge functions | | Node.js | @astrojs/node | Node | Standalone server mode |


Core Concepts

Output Modes

  • output: 'static' — Full SSG, no adapter needed
  • output: 'server' — Full SSR, adapter required
  • Per-page: Mix with export const prerender = true/false

Cloudflare Astro

Astro 6 runs astro dev on workerd — same runtime as production. Enables D1, KV, R2 bindings in local dev via platformProxy. No more simulation gaps. Requires @astrojs/cloudflare v13+ and Node.js 22+.

ISR Pattern

Astro has no native ISR. Implement with platform caching: Cloudflare KV as cache layer, or Vercel's Cache-Control with stale-while-revalidate.

Skew Protection

On Vercel, enable skew protection to prevent asset mismatches between old client and new server during deployments.

Best Practices

  1. Match adapter to platform early - Switching adapters mid-project is painful
  2. Cloudflare: use v13+ for Astro 7 - Required for workerd local dev
  3. Node.js 22+ for Astro 7 - Drops Node 18/20 support
  4. Per-page prerender - Mix static and SSR for optimal performance
  5. Test bindings locally - Cloudflare platformProxy enables local D1/KV/R2
