Step 3: Authenticate
When you first interact with CloudAgent, you'll be prompted to authenticate via OAuth.
Step 4: Test Connection
Open AI Assistant panel (Alt+Enter or Cmd+Enter) and ask:
"List my CloudAgent environments"Example Prompts
| What You Say | What CloudAgent Does |
|---|---|
| "Create an RDS MySQL database for my app" | Creates encrypted RDS with backups |
