The deadly embrace occurs when removing an export still imported by another stack. Weaken the reference first using CrossStackReferences.of(resource).produce(ReferenceStrength.BOTH), then WEAK, then remove it, deploying between each step. A legacy two-deploy exportValue recipe exists for older CDK versions.
Use cdk refactor --unstable=refactor after deploying a clean baseline, performing only moves and renames with no property changes. Alternatively, call overrideLogicalId on the L1 child to pin the original logical ID, and lock IDs with unit tests.
No. Hotswap bypasses CloudFormation and creates drift on purpose, while express mode skips stabilization waits and disables automatic rollback. Both are development-only; production deployments must use a standard cdk deploy with no speed flags.
The stack is wedged after a failed rollback, often from out-of-band resource deletion or IAM issues. Recover with cdk rollback $STACK, or cdk rollback $STACK --orphan <LogicalId> to skip a stuck resource, then diff, fix the root cause, and redeploy.
Use cdk import interactively or with --resource-mapping for CI, or run cdk deploy --import-existing-resources to match resources by explicit physical names. For converting whole stacks or templates to CDK code, use cdk migrate, which generates L1 constructs.
It does not cover raw CloudFormation YAML/JSON, SAM, Terraform, or Pulumi, and CI/CD beyond CDK Pipelines is out of scope. Use built-in knowledge or specialized skills for those tools instead.
