What it does
Railway Deploy is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Deploy code to Railway using "railway up". Use when user wants to push code, says "railway up", "deploy", "ship", or "push". For initial setup or creating services, use railway-new skill. For Docker images, use railway-environment skill.
Its SKILL.md is about 880 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment. It works with Railway and Docker. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- User wants to push code
- Says railway up
Example prompts
- “railway up”
- “deploy”
- “/railway-deploy”
Requirements
- Docker
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(railway:*)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c0ca7da. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Bash(railway:*)
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
railway
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Railway Deploy loads about 875 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 370 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Railway Deploy
Deploy code from the current directory to Railway using railway up.
When to Use
- User asks to "deploy", "ship", "push code"
- User says "railway up" or "deploy to Railway"
- User wants to deploy local code changes
- User says "deploy and fix any issues" (use --ci mode)
Modes
Detach Mode (default)
Starts deploy and returns immediately. Use for most deploys.
railway up --detachCI Mode
Streams build logs until complete. Use when user wants to watch the build or needs to debug issues.
railway up --ciWhen to use CI mode:
- User says "deploy and watch", "deploy and fix issues"
- User is debugging build failures
- User wants to see build output
Deploy Specific Service
Default is linked service. To deploy to a different service:
railway up --detach --service backendDeploy to Unlinked Project
Deploy to a project without linking first:
railway up --project <project-id> --environment production --detachRequires both --project and --environment flags.
CLI Options
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
-d, --detach | Don't attach to logs (default) |
-c, --ci | Stream build logs, exit when done |
-s, --service <NAME> | Target service (defaults to linked) |
-e, --environment <NAME> | Target environment (defaults to linked) |
-p, --project <ID> | Target project (requires --environment) |
[PATH] | Path to deploy (defaults to current directory) |
Directory Linking
Railway CLI walks UP the directory tree to find a linked project. If you're in a subdirectory of a linked project, you don't need to relink.
For subdirectory deployments, prefer setting rootDirectory via the railway-environment skill, then deploy normally with railway up.

After Deploy
Detach mode
Deploying to <service>...Use railway-deployment skill to check build status (with --lines flag).
CI mode
Build logs stream inline. If build fails, the error will be in the output.
Do NOT run railway logs --build after CI mode - the logs already streamed. If you need
more context, use railway-deployment skill with --lines flag (never stream).
Composability
- Check status after deploy: Use railway-service skill
- View logs: Use railway-deployment skill
- Fix config issues: Use railway-environment skill
- Redeploy after config fix: Use railway-environment skill
Error Handling
No Project Linked
No Railway project linked. Run `railway link` first.No Service Linked
No service linked. Use --service flag or run `railway service` to select one.Build Failure (CI mode)
The build logs already streamed - analyze them directly from the railway up --ci output.
Do NOT run railway logs after CI mode (it streams forever without --lines).
Common issues:
- Missing dependencies → check package.json/requirements.txt
- Build command wrong → use railway-environment skill to fix
- Dockerfile issues → check dockerfile path
