Built with Codex CLI? Deploy it to Google Cloud Platform.
Step-by-step deployment help for Codex CLI-built apps on Google Cloud Platform. We fix deployment issues, configure Google Cloud Platform correctly, and get your app live in production. From $19.
Codex CLI issues we fix before deploying
Problems specific to Codex CLI's code generation that affect Google Cloud Platform deployments.
API keys and secrets written directly into generated source files
Codex CLI generates code with placeholder credentials that developers often replace with real values inline, leaving secrets committed to version control. There is no .env scaffolding or secret management setup by default.
No authentication or authorization on generated API endpoints
When Codex generates Express or FastAPI backends, routes are created without middleware for authentication, meaning every endpoint is publicly accessible immediately after deployment.
Single-file output breaks apart for any real project structure
Codex frequently outputs all logic into one or two files rather than organizing code into modules, services, and utilities — making the result hard to maintain and extend as the codebase grows.
Generated code lacks awareness of existing project context
Because Codex operates from a prompt without full codebase indexing, it generates code that duplicates existing utilities, ignores established conventions, and introduces conflicting patterns alongside your real code.
Google Cloud Platform deployment issues we check for
Common Google Cloud Platform problems that break AI-generated apps in production.
Cloud Run container port misconfigured
Cloud Run injects the PORT environment variable, but AI-generated Dockerfiles hardcode port 3000 or 8080, causing the container to fail health checks and never become healthy.
Service account with Owner role
AI-generated deployment scripts use the default compute service account with overly broad Owner permissions instead of custom roles scoped to required APIs.
Cloud Run concurrency set to 1
Default concurrency of 1 request per container instance causes excessive scaling and costs. AI tools don't optimize concurrency settings for the application's actual threading model.
VPC connector not attached for private resources
Cloud Run services can't reach Cloud SQL or Memorystore instances in a VPC because AI-generated configs omit the Serverless VPC Access connector.

Frequently asked questions
Can you deploy a Codex CLI-built app to Google Cloud Platform?
Yes. We regularly deploy Codex CLI-generated projects to Google Cloud Platform. We handle the platform-specific configuration, fix deployment errors, and ensure your app runs reliably in production on Google Cloud Platform.
What Google Cloud Platform issues do Codex CLI projects typically have?
Codex CLI projects commonly have api keys and secrets written directly into generated source files and no authentication or authorization on generated api endpoints. When deploying to Google Cloud Platform, these combine with platform-specific issues like cloud run container port misconfigured and service account with owner role.
How do I get my Codex CLI project live on Google Cloud Platform?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of deployment blockers. For Codex CLI-built projects targeting Google Cloud Platform, the typical path is: fix Codex CLI-specific code issues, configure Google Cloud Platform settings correctly, then deploy. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
Can you handle the full deployment of my Codex CLI app to Google Cloud Platform?
Yes. We handle end-to-end deployment: auditing your Codex CLI codebase, fixing deployment blockers, configuring Google Cloud Platform correctly, setting up environment variables, and getting your app live in production. Start with our code audit ($19).
