Through CLI commands such as stripe projects init, add, upgrade, and env --pull, developers or coding agents can repeat setup, audit changes, and upgrade supported plans using tokenized payment credentials, although payment handoff is limited to supported providers and plans in the US, EU, UK, and Canada."

# Provision a production-ready dev stack from your terminal

## Summary

Stripe Projects, a new tool in the Stripe CLI, addresses the manual, fragmented work of turning a local prototype into a production-ready environment. It manages a project manifest and Stripe-backed record for attached services, provider accounts, and required credentials, while an integration protocol standardizes provisioning, plan selection, upgrades, and credential handoff. The developer preview supports services from providers including Vercel, Railway, Supabase, Neon, PlanetScale, Turso, Chroma, PostHog, Clerk, and Runloop; resources remain in accounts owned by the developer, and credentials can be synced to local development, CI, or a team secret manager. Through CLI commands such as stripe projects init, add, upgrade, and env --pull, developers or coding agents can repeat setup, audit changes, and upgrade supported plans using tokenized payment credentials, although payment handoff is limited to supported providers and plans in the US, EU, UK, and Canada.

## Context

Provisioning a modern application stack is described as overly manual and fragmented across hosting, database, authentication, and analytics dashboards. Setup guides, copy-and-paste credentials, and secrets distributed across files and tools make workflows difficult to repeat and secure, while AI agents need deterministic steps and real credentials.

## Approach / What changed

Stripe Projects uses a lightweight project manifest and Stripe-backed record to manage attached services, provider accounts, and credentials through the Stripe CLI. Its integration protocol standardizes provisioning, plan selection, upgrades, and credential handoff; credentials can be synced to local development, CI, or a team secret manager, and coding agents can use the same CLI workflow.

## Takeaways

- A project records attached services, owned provider accounts, and required credentials, making setup repeatable across machines and teammates.
- The developer preview includes integrations for hosting, databases, storage, authentication, analytics, vector databases, sandboxes, and other services from named providers.
- Paid-tier upgrades use a Stripe Shared Payment Token so providers receive scoped payment credentials without manually copying underlying payment details; availability is limited to supported providers and plans in the US, EU, UK, and Canada.
