land-and-deploy

Automated release workflows merge the PR, wait for CI completion, trigger deployment, and verify production health to reduce release toil and ensure readiness. This hands-off flow coordinates the entire process while minimizing production risk.

Canary health checks validate production health after deployment to ensure release readiness. You need canary checks when shipping PRs to production to verify deployment URLs and confirm the application is stable post-merge.

Pre-merge checks are enforced by auto-detecting the PR from the current branch before merging. This ensures the PR is valid and ready, gating the deployment process until all checks pass.

Structured rollback options provide auditable release steps that trigger when production verification or canary checks fail. This ensures failures are handled systematically with clear recovery paths within the automated flow.

The automated release flow ensures production readiness across platforms by verifying deployment URLs and performing post-merge health checks. It applies to any platform requiring coordinated merge, deployment, and canary verification.

The CI wait step blocks deployment to ensure all checks pass before releasing to production. This gating mechanism prevents deploying unverified code and ensures the canary health checks validate a stable build.
