Just tell it to use your gcp/aws account using the cli, makes it infinitely powerful in terms of deployment. (Also, while I might miss some parts of programming that I have given to AI, I certainly don't miss working with clouds).

Please don't.
People burning through their tokens allowance on Claude Code is one thing.
People having their agent unknowingly provisioning thousands of $ of cloud resources is something completely different.
This is also on the cloud providers for not giving us good tools to manage costs.
How about, "tell the agent to write instructions for cloud deployment with a cost estimate"
