Build Automation Skill

Automate pipelines by organizing Bash scripts into modular stages (build.sh, test.sh, deploy.sh) with centralized configuration in scripts/shared/config.env. Execute the full pipeline with bash scripts/bash/pipeline.sh or run individual stages independently. The Skill implements strict error handling, colored logging, and dry-run modes for safe automation.

Yes, this Skill demonstrates organizing pure Bash scripts into a cohesive CI/CD-like pipeline. It uses modular stage execution, standardized exit codes, and centralized logging to automate build, test, and deployment workflows without requiring external CI/CD platforms, though it supports Claude Code integration hooks for autonomous workflows.

Deploy robust error handling by using set -euo pipefail for strict mode, implementing standardized exit codes, and applying centralized colored logging across all pipeline stages. This approach ensures clear failure signals and reliable automation even when running individual stages or the complete end-to-end pipeline.

Execute a dry-run by using the safety features built into the pipeline scripts. The Skill supports dry-run modes and environment targeting through externalizable configuration, allowing you to validate pipeline logic and changes before committing to actual build, test, or deploy operations.

Yes, centralize pipeline configuration in scripts/shared/config.env and reference it across all modular scripts (build.sh, test.sh, deploy.sh, setup.sh, cleanup.sh). This externalizable configuration approach enables consistent, reusable pipeline setups across different projects while maintaining environment-specific overrides.

You can execute individual stages independently. Run bash scripts/bash/pipeline.sh for the full end-to-end workflow, or run specific stages like bash scripts/bash/build.sh or bash scripts/bash/test.sh separately. The modular design supports both complete automation and targeted stage execution.
