What problem does it solve? Merging a PR and confirming the deploy actually worked is a manual, error-prone ritual: watching CI, picking a merge method, waiting for the deploy workflow, then checking production. This Skill automates that entire release sequence with readiness gates and health verification. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Automated merge pipeline: Detects the PR from the current branch, validates its state, waits for CI, and merges using the repo's configured method (squash, merge, or rebase). - Pre-merge readiness gate: Checks review status, tests, CHANGELOG, and PR accuracy before anything irreversible happens. - Deploy verification: Detects the hosting platform (Fly.io, Render, Vercel, Netlify, Heroku, Railway), waits for the deploy workflow, and runs monitor health checks against the production URL, offering revert on failure. - First-run dry run: On first use for a project, it validates deploy infrastructure and shows exactly what will happen before touching anything. - Use Case: After /ship creates PR #42, run /land-and-deploy #42 https://myapp.com to merge it, wait for the Fly.io deploy, and verify the site returns healthy responses. ## Quick Start Type /land-and-deploy to merge the PR for your current branch, wait for the deploy, and verify production health automatically.
