## FAQ

### Can the AI deploy infrastructure on its own?

No, real infrastructure changes require a human approval gate. The agent cannot deploy on its own because it stops at an approval gate until a human calls the approval tool.

### Do I need an account to parse Terraform HCL into a diagram?

No, the tool that turns raw HCL into a diagram structure is deterministic and does not require an account.

### How do I authenticate with the CloudForge MCP server?

You must generate an API key starting with `cf_live_` from your CloudForge account settings and set it as the `CLOUDFORGE_TOKEN` environment variable.

### Does CloudForge offer a free trial?

Yes, paid plans include a 14-day free trial.
