SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps users move away from a deprecated CI/CD deployment skill by explaining how to reproduce the same outcome using the current compose + prepare workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deprecation guidance: Communicates that CodePipeline is now handled as part of the composable prepare lifecycle.
  • Migration instructions: Directs users to run the updated sequence so CodeCommit and CodePipeline are added and then deployed safely.
  • Compatibility for existing deployments: Ensures previously deployed stacks remain compatible and can be aligned by rerunning compose and prepare.

Quick Start

Use ipa-compose with the codepipeline option, then run ipa-prepare to deploy the prepare stacks that replace the deprecated ipa-codepipeline flow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I migrate my AWS CodePipeline setup away from the deprecated provisioning skill?

To migrate your AWS CodePipeline setup, run /ipa-compose with the codepipeline option, then execute /ipa-prepare to deploy compatible stacks using the updated composable prepare lifecycle.

Will rerunning the compose and prepare workflow delete my existing AWS CI/CD stacks?

Rerunning the compose and prepare workflow preserves your existing AWS CI/CD stack names and behavior while aligning them with the new CodeCommit and CodePipeline integration.

How do I add CodeCommit and CodePipeline to a new AWS deployment project?

To add CodeCommit and CodePipeline to a new AWS deployment project, execute /ipa-compose with the codepipeline option followed by /ipa-prepare to safely deploy the infrastructure.

What is the correct sequence to provision AWS CI/CD pipelines using the current prepare lifecycle?

The correct sequence to provision AWS CI/CD pipelines is to run /ipa-compose with the codepipeline option to integrate the services, then run /ipa-prepare to deploy the stacks.

Why did the standalone CodePipeline provisioning skill become deprecated?

The standalone CodePipeline provisioning skill became deprecated because CodePipeline is now handled as part of the composable prepare lifecycle, integrating CodeCommit and CodePipeline natively.

Can I use the new compose workflow to update previously deployed CloudFormation stacks?

Yes, you can use the new compose workflow to update previously deployed CloudFormation stacks by rerunning /ipa-compose and /ipa-prepare, ensuring they remain compatible without losing existing behavior.
