+ ### Step 1 — Identify the Engine and Tools
46
+ Extract from `database.md`:
47
+ - the primary database engine (e.g., Postgres 15)
48
+ - the schema management/migration tool (e.g., Prisma, Flyway, Alembic)
49
+ - the application access pattern (raw SQL vs Query Builder vs ORM)
50
+
51
+ ### Step 2 — Identify the Access Patterns
52
+ Extract from `prd.md` and feature docs:
53
+ - Read/Write ratios (is it write-heavy or read-heavy?)
54
+ - Data volume expectations
55
+ - Latency requirements
56
+ - Multi-tenant data segregation rules (if any)
57
+
58
+ ### Step 3 — Design the Schema Shape

+ Design the minimal schema that supports the required behavior.

+ Specify:

+ - Entity names and relationships (1:1, 1:N, M:N)
62
+ - Strict data types (prefer specific types like `UUID` or `TIMESTAMPTZ` over generic strings if the engine supports it)
63
+ - Constraints (NOT NULL, UNIQUE, CHECK)
64
+ - Primary and Foreign keys
65
+
66
+ ### Step 4 — Define Indexing and Performance Strategies
67
+ Define the indexes required for the access patterns identified in Step 2.
68
+ - Consider composite indexes for multi-column queries.
69
+ - Consider partial/filtered indexes for specific status queries.
70
+ - Avoid over-indexing to protect write performance.
71
+
72
+ ### Step 5 — Design the Migration Plan
73
+ Specify how the schema will be deployed safely:
74
+ - Can this be applied without locking tables?
75
+ - Does it require a multi-phase zero-downtime migration (e.g., Add column -> write to both -> backfill -> drop old column)?
76
+ - How will the rollback (down migration) function?
77
+
78
+ ### Step 6 — Define Verification Requirements
79
+ Use `testing.md` to decide how this will be validated.
80
+ Examples:
81
+ - Schema validation tests
82
+ - Query performance benchmarks
83
+ - Migration dry-run tests
84
+
85
+ ## Quality Check
86
+
87
+ Use this checklist when reviewing an existing schema or PR:
88
+
89
+ - Does the schema follow the project's naming conventions (e.g., snake_case vs camelCase)?
90
+ - Are foreign keys properly enforcing referential integrity?
91
+ - Are appropriate constraints in place to prevent bad data at the database level?
92
+ - Will the migration lock a critical table in production?
93
+ - Is there a clear separation between the database schema and the application's domain model?
94
+
95
+ ## Anti-Pattern
96
+
97
+ - Assuming an ORM is used when the project strictly uses raw SQL.
98
+ - Suggesting a heavy relational model for a project that uses a document database.
99
+ - Proposing migrations that lock large tables (e.g., adding a column with a default value in older Postgres versions) without a zero-downtime strategy.
100
+ - Ignoring data types and using strings for dates, JSON, or booleans.
101
+ - Forgetting to define a rollback strategy for a destructive migration.

8
+
9
+ Produces a **project-aware, expert-level CI/CD pipeline implementation** by reading the repository's project docs first, then applying robust deployment engineering practices.
10
+
11
+ This skill is reusable across CI providers (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) and deployment targets (AWS, GCP, Vercel, Kubernetes).
12
+
13
+ It should **not** assume a specific CI provider or deployment strategy until the project docs confirm them.
14
+
15
+ ## Required Project Inputs
16
+
17
+ | Document | Why it matters |
18
+ | --- | --- |
19
+ | `docs/project-docs/operations/ci-cd.md` | Defines the required CI provider, branch protection rules, required jobs, and deployment environments. |
20
+ | `docs/project-docs/development/testing.md` | Defines which test suites must run and their coverage thresholds. |
21
+ | `docs/project-docs/operations/security.md` | Defines required security scanning tools (SAST, DAST, dependency checks). |
22
+
23
+ If the repository lacks the CI/CD docs needed for deployment, call that out and create or update the missing docs instead of blindly writing deployment scripts.
24
+
25
+ ## When to Use
26
+
27
+ Use this skill when building or reviewing one of these boundary types.
28
+
29
+ | Boundary type | Typical artifacts |
30
+ | --- | --- |
31
+ | Continuous Integration (CI) | Build scripts, linter checks, test runners, Docker builds. |
32
+ | Continuous Deployment (CD) | Terraform/Pulumi execution, environment promotion, artifact publishing. |
33
+ | Security & Compliance | Dependabot configuration, secret scanning, static analysis gates. |
34
+ | Pipeline Optimization | Caching strategies, matrix builds, job parallelization. |
35
+
36
+ ## Procedure
37
+
38
+ ### Step 1 — Identify the Pipeline Engine and Target
39
+ Extract from `ci-cd.md`:
40
+ - The CI platform (e.g., GitHub Actions).
41
+ - The deployment target (e.g., AWS ECS).
42
+ - Authentication mechanisms (e.g., OIDC vs long-lived secrets).
43
+
44
+ ### Step 2 — Define the Build Matrix and Caching
45
+ - Ensure language-specific dependencies (node_modules, pip cache, go mod cache) are aggressively cached to reduce build times.
46
+ - If building Docker images, implement layer caching.
47
+
48
+ ### Step 3 — Enforce Testing and Security Gates
49
+ Consult `testing.md` and `security.md`:
50
+ - The pipeline MUST block merges if linters or tests fail.
51
+ - The pipeline MUST block merges if critical security vulnerabilities are detected.
52
+
53
+ ### Step 4 — Implement Safe Deployment Strategies
54
+ If deploying to production:
55
+ - Ensure the pipeline respects environment segregation.
56
+ - Implement rollback capabilities or canary/blue-green deployment steps if specified in `ci-cd.md`.
57
+ - Never hardcode secrets in the pipeline file; always use the CI provider's secrets manager.
58
+
59
+ ### Step 5 — Verify Pipeline Robustness
60
+ Ensure the pipeline:
61
+ - Only triggers on appropriate branches or tags.
62
+ - Has reasonable timeout limits to prevent hung jobs.
63
+ - Cleans up temporary artifacts after execution.
64
+
65
+ ## Quality Check
66
+
67
+
68
+ Use this checklist when reviewing an existing CI/CD configuration:
69
+
70
+ - Are dependencies and build outputs being cached?
71
+ - Are secrets injected securely via environment variables?
72
+ - Does a failing test or linter correctly fail the entire job?
73
+ - Is the deployment step locked down to specific branches or environments?
74
+ - Are timeouts explicitly defined to prevent runaway costs?
75
+
76
+ ## Anti-Pattern
77
+
78
+ - Hardcoding API keys or passwords directly in the YAML file.
79
+ - Writing a pipeline that deploys to production from any branch.
80
+ - Skipping tests to make the pipeline run faster.
81
+ - Downloading dependencies without verifying lockfiles.
82
+
83
+ ## Output Contract
84
+
85
+ When using this skill, the output should include:
86
+
87
+ 1. the project docs consulted
88
+ 2. the proposed pipeline architecture (triggers, jobs, steps)
89
+ 3. the caching and optimization strategies used
90
+ 4. the security and testing gates enforced
91
+ 5. the final pipeline YAML or script
92
+
93
+ ## Neutral Prompt Shape
94
+ `@agent use devops-ci-cd on [Target Pipeline/Workflow] focusing on [Specific Optimizations/Security Gates].`
95
+

+ ## Example Prompt
97

98
+ - "Review this Jenkinsfile for security issues and hardcoded secrets."
99
+ - "Design a deployment pipeline that supports blue-green rollout."

+ # Observability
8
+
9
+ Produces a **project-aware, expert-level observability implementation** by reading the repository's project docs first, then applying Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) standards for logging, metrics, and tracing.
10
+
11
+ This skill is reusable across logging frameworks (Winston, Logback, Zap), tracing standards (OpenTelemetry), and telemetry backends (Prometheus, Datadog, ELK).
12
+
13
+ It should **not** assume a specific logging library or metric format until the project docs confirm them.
14
+
15
+ ## Required Project Inputs
16
+
17
+ | Document | Why it matters |
18
+ | --- | --- |
19
+ | `docs/project-docs/operations/observability.md` | Defines the required logging frameworks, metric standards, alerting thresholds, and tracing architectures. |
20
+ | `docs/project-docs/operations/compliance.md` | Defines PII (Personally Identifiable Information) masking and data retention rules. |
21

22
+
23
+ If the repository lacks the observability docs needed to understand the current stack, call that out and create or update the missing docs instead of inventing arbitrary logging formats.
24
+
25
+ ## When to Use
26
+
27
+ Use this skill when tasked with improving system visibility or instrumenting code.
28
+
29
+ | Boundary type | Typical artifacts |
30
+ | --- | --- |
31
+ | Application Logging | Structured JSON logs, error stack traces, context injection. |
32
+ | Distributed Tracing | Spans, span contexts, OpenTelemetry configuration. |
33
+ | Application Metrics | Counters, gauges, histograms (e.g., request latency, error rates). |
34
+ | Alerting & Dashboards | Prometheus rules, Datadog monitors, Grafana dashboard JSON. |
35
+
36
+ ## Procedure
37
+
38
+ ### Step 1 — Extract Standards
39
+ Extract from `observability.md`:
40
+ - The approved logging library.
41
+ - Required log levels (e.g., `DEBUG` in dev, `INFO` in prod).
42
+ - Required structured fields (e.g., `requestId`, `tenantId`).
43
+
44
+ ### Step 2 — Enforce Compliance and PII Masking
45
+ Extract from `compliance.md`:
46
+ - Identify fields that MUST NEVER be logged (e.g., passwords, credit card numbers, raw request bodies).
47
+ - Implement redaction/masking at the logger configuration level if possible.
48
+
49
+ ### Step 3 — Instrument Tracing Context
50
+ When instrumenting a request flow:
51
+ - Ensure trace IDs (like `x-b3-traceid` or OpenTelemetry headers) are parsed at the entry point.
52
+ - Ensure the trace ID is attached to ALL subsequent log emissions and downstream HTTP calls.
53
+
54
+ ### Step 4 — Define Actionable Metrics
55
+ Instead of generic logs, emit actionable metrics for:
56
+ - Throughput (requests per second).
57
+ - Error rates (4xx vs 5xx).
58
+ - Latency/Duration (histograms of processing time).
59
+
60
+ ### Step 5 — Standardize Error Handling
61
+ When logging exceptions:
62
+ - Always log the full stack trace for unhandled errors.
63
+ - Do not swallow errors (e.g., `catch (e) { log(e.message) }` loses the stack trace).
64
+ - Ensure the log distinguishes between client errors (validation) and server errors (crashes).
65
+
66
+ ## Quality Check
67
+
68
+ Use this checklist when reviewing observability code:
69
+
70
+ - Are logs structured (JSON) rather than plain text strings?
71
+ - Is context (like Request ID) present in every log entry for a transaction?
72
+ - Are sensitive fields (tokens, passwords, PII) explicitly redacted?
73
+ - Are metrics using standardized naming conventions (e.g., snake_case for Prometheus)?
74
+ - Are errors logged with stack traces and sufficient context to debug without guessing?
75
+
76
+ ## Anti-Pattern
77
+
78
+ - `console.log()` or equivalent generic print statements in production code.
79
+ - Logging the entire raw HTTP Request or Response object.
80
+ - Silently swallowing exceptions without logging them.
81
+ - Emitting high-cardinality data (like User IDs) as metric labels/tags instead of log fields.
82
+
83
+ ## Output Contract
84
+
85
+ When using this skill, the output should include:
86
+
87
+ 1. the project docs consulted
88
+ 2. the instrumentation code (logging, tracing, or metrics)
89
+ 3. the structured payload shape being emitted
90
+ 4. the PII masking and security constraints verified
91
+ 5. how the new telemetry can be validated (e.g., local mock server, stdout check)
92
+
93
+ ## Neutral Prompt Shape
94
+ `@agent use observability on [Target Service/Component] focusing on [Specific Metrics/Logs].`
