SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Teams shipping releases often forget critical verification steps like checking CI status, testing database migrations, or defining rollback criteria, leading to preventable production incidents. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Checklist Generation: Produces a Markdown checklist covering pre-deploy, deploy, and post-deploy phases with rollback triggers. - Context-Aware Customization: Adapts the checklist when you mention feature flags, database migrations, or breaking API changes. - Connector Integration: Pulls release diffs, CI pipeline status, and monitoring baselines when source control, CI/CD, or monitoring connectors are available. - Use Case: Before shipping a release with a database migration, run the checklist to verify migrations are tested, the pipeline is green, and rollback thresholds are documented. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to generate a deploy checklist for your service or release name, mentioning any migrations or feature flags involved.

Frequently Asked Questions about deploy-checklist

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a pre-deployment checklist before a release?▼

Run the deploy-checklist skill with your service or release name as the argument. It generates a Markdown checklist covering CI status, code review, migrations, feature flags, staging verification, and post-deploy monitoring.

How do I customize a deploy checklist for database migrations?▼

Tell the assistant your deploy includes a database migration and it adds migration-specific verification steps. Mentioning feature flags or breaking API changes similarly adds flag verification and consumer notification steps.

Can the checklist pull CI/CD pipeline status automatically?▼

Yes, if a CI/CD connector is connected, the skill checks build and test status and verifies the pipeline is green before deploy. Source control connectors can also pull the release diff and confirm PR approvals.

What rollback triggers should I define before deploying?▼

The checklist includes a rollback triggers section covering error rate thresholds, P50 latency limits, and critical user flow failures. If a monitoring connector is available, thresholds are pre-filled from current baselines.

When should I run a deployment checklist?▼

Run it before every deploy, including routine ones, since checklists prevent forgotten steps. Decide rollback criteria before deploying rather than during an incident.
