SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams validate infrastructure and CDK work before calling it done, catching synthesis failures, deployment blockers, runtime misconfigurations, integration mismatches, and compliance gaps early.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deployment Validation: Verifies that CDK synth, CloudFormation template generation, and deployment ordering actually work.
  • Runtime Behavior Checks: Reviews environment variables, IAM scope, security groups, health checks, timeouts, and container settings for operational correctness.
  • Cross-Component Integration: Confirms SSM paths, exports, event routing, and stack interfaces line up across components.
  • Infrastructure Validation: Checks encryption, logging, retention, tagging, alarms, and removal policies against design and compliance expectations.
  • Use Case: A developer can use this Skill after an infrastructure change to determine whether the stack is deployable, secure, observable, and aligned with the intended architecture.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to review your CDK or CloudFormation change for deployment, runtime, integration, and infrastructure gaps before you merge it.

Frequently Asked Questions about infrastructure-gap-analysis

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate CDK or CloudFormation infrastructure before deployment?

Validate infrastructure by checking CDK synthesis, CloudFormation template generation, deployment ordering, runtime configurations, and cross-stack contract verification to ensure deployment readiness and operational correctness.

What is infrastructure gap analysis in AWS CDK workflows?

Infrastructure gap analysis in AWS CDK workflows identifies synthesis failures, deployment blockers, runtime misconfigurations, integration mismatches, and compliance gaps before code is merged and released.

How do I check cross-stack integration consistency for AWS resources?

Check cross-stack integration consistency by verifying SSM paths, CloudFormation exports, event routing, and stack interfaces line up correctly across components to ensure infrastructure completeness.

Does infrastructure gap analysis cover runtime behavior and IAM scope checks?

Yes, infrastructure gap analysis covers runtime behavior by reviewing environment variables, IAM scope, security groups, health checks, timeouts, and container settings for operational correctness.

Can I use this approach for Terraform-like and CloudFormation-based workflows?

Yes, this infrastructure validation approach applies to AWS stack reviews, post-iteration validation, and pre-release checks for Terraform-like or CloudFormation-based workflows to confirm deployment readiness.

What compliance and infrastructure gaps does a pre-deployment review catch?

A pre-deployment review catches infrastructure compliance gaps by checking encryption, logging, retention, tagging, alarms, and removal policies against design expectations to ensure stack security and observability.
