SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides operators through deploying a merged lesser-body change across AWS stages in the correct order, while avoiding CloudFormation mistakes, missing SSM exports, and unsafe live rollouts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stage-by-stage deployment: Coordinates lab/dev, staging, and live deployments with required soak checks.
  • First-deploy sequencing: Enforces the three-step order with lesser when a new app-stage pair is being deployed for the first time.
  • Production safeguards: Reminds operators to avoid CDK timeouts, publish SSM exports on every deploy, and require explicit authorization before live rollout.
  • Rollback and release support: Covers Lambda version rollback, stack rollback, and release-artifact publication for managed-consumer ingestion.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to deploy lesser-body to the target stage using the canonical CDK command and report the deploy record with soak and rollback notes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely deploy a merged CDK change across AWS staging and production stages?

To safely deploy a CDK change across AWS stages, you orchestrate stage-by-stage rollouts from lab to live, enforcing soak validation checks and requiring explicit authorization before promoting to production.

What is the correct first-time deployment sequence for a new AWS Lambda and session-table stage?

First-time deployment of a new app-stage pair requires a strict three-step sequencing order coordinated with lesser, ensuring correct SSM export publication and stage-specific Lambda and session-table wiring.

Why does my CDK deployment fail when rolling out AWS Lambda updates without timeouts?

CDK deployment fails or becomes unsafe when using timeout shortcuts; safe rollouts require avoiding these shortcuts, verifying SSM exports on every deploy, and applying strict authorization and monitoring controls.

How do I rollback an AWS Lambda version and publish release artifacts for managed consumers?

Rollback and release support covers Lambda version rollback, CloudFormation stack rollback, and release-artifact publication, enabling managed-consumer ingestion directly from the deployed stage records.

Do I need to publish SSM exports on every CDK deploy across lab, staging, and live?

Yes, publishing SSM exports is required on every deploy across lab, staging, and live stages to maintain correct stack wiring and prevent CloudFormation mistakes during lesser-body change rollouts.
