New 'neckbeard' plugin turns coding agents into cloud infra planners
Developer bealesh released neckbeard, a plugin for AI coding agents like Claude Code that analyzes an application's repository and generates reviewable cloud infrastructure plans with monthly cost estimates. It supports AWS, GCP, and Azure deployments via GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, using a bundled catalog of tested OpenTofu modules, and includes commands such as /neckbeard:analyze, /neckbeard:estimate, and /neckbeard:sync. The tool pairs AI-driven analysis with deterministic planning and validation code so the agent explains infrastructure rather than inventing it.
