What problem does it solve?

Deploying Next.js applications to AWS using CDK can be error-prone and repetitive across environments. This Skill automates the end-to-end workflow, including building, synthesizing, diffing, deploying, and handling rollback with built-in safety gates.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Staged deployments: manage separate staging and production environments with environment-specific configs.
• Pre-deploy validation: verify environment config, synthesize the CDK stack, and run smoke checks before production.
• Manual approval gate: require explicit confirmation before production deployment.
• Rollback procedures: provide multiple rollback strategies and post-rollback verification steps.

Quick Start

Deploy to staging first with built-in checks, then promote to production after explicit approval.
