Projects & tags

A project is just a name + env that stick to everything you create. That's how list, share, and destroy know what's yours.

Init

awsutopia init my-app --env dev
awsutopia init my-app --env staging --force   # overwrite

Writes .awsutopia/project.json:

{
  "version": 1,
  "name": "my-app",
  "env": "dev",
  "createdAt": "…"
}

Default env is dev when omitted. No YAML required.

Tags

Every created resource gets:

Key	Value
utopia:project	Project name
utopia:env	Environment

Those tags gate destroy and share (current project match by default). Switch folders / re-init if you're jumping between apps. Escape hatch: --force on destroy/share for other utopia-tagged resources. See Destroy policy.
