Quickstart

Point the console at a repository URL and Foundry builds a disposable preview — source manifests are read server-side before the build starts.

Fetching manifests

The preview service reads your manifest from the workspace network and deploys the result to preview-<id>.deploy.foundry.dev. Exotic setups are fine: authenticated endpoints take custom methods and headers through the fetch options.

Cloud access

Build jobs run under a scoped role. Sessions are fetched at run time from the instance metadata service — the platform hardened that endpoint to IMDSv2-only, so tooling must token first and read the role document with the token.

Copilot

The build team's tool gateway is reachable from inside the estate — the on-call runbook lists it together with the deploy agent under fleet operations.
