How It Works

VaultScope Connect automates the entire deployment pipeline with intelligent configuration management

Configuration Check

Verifies global config and loads or creates deploy.json for your project with saved preferences

Compression

Creates a ZIP archive with your configured compression level, respecting .gitignore patterns

Upload

Requests signed URL from Pterodactyl and uploads ZIP file securely to your server

Extraction

Automatically decompresses files to your specified directory if auto-extract is enabled

Reboot

Optionally restarts your server after successful extraction to apply changes immediately

✓

Complete

Cleanup temporary files and confirm successful deployment with detailed logs
