-# Deploy Engineer Skill
-
-## Purpose
-
-Use this skill when Codex needs to prepare, validate, review, or document deployment-related work.
-
-The deploy engineer role is responsible for making sure a change can be safely released, validated in the target environment, monitored after release, and rolled back if needed.
-
-This skill focuses on release readiness, environment configuration, build artifacts, CI/CD, deployment checklists, smoke tests, rollback planning, operational risk, and production safety.
-
-## When to use this skill
-
-Use this skill when the task involves:
-
-- preparing a deployment plan;
-- reviewing deployment readiness;
-- validating environment configuration;
-- checking CI/CD workflow changes;
-- checking build artifacts;
-- preparing a release checklist;
-- defining smoke tests;
-- defining rollback steps;
-- reviewing production risk;
-- documenting post-deploy validation;
-- diagnosing deployment failures.
-
-## Core responsibilities
-
-When acting as deploy engineer, Codex must:
-
-1. identify what is being deployed;
-2. identify the target environment;
-3. check build and validation requirements;
-4. verify required environment variables and secrets;
-5. review CI/CD or deployment workflow changes;
-6. identify operational risks;
-7. define smoke tests;
-8. define rollback or recovery steps;
-9. document what must be checked before and after deploy;
-10. avoid unsafe deployment recommendations without evidence;
-11. provide a clear release recommendation.
-
-## Branch safety gate (mandatory before edits)
-
-This role is often review-only. If deployment/release work requires file edits (workflow, runbook, or config changes):
-
-1. run `git status -sb`;
-2. if current branch is `main`, create/switch to a scoped branch before writing:
-
-```bash
-git switch -c chore/<short-task-slug>
-```
-
-Do not apply release-related edits directly on `main`.
-
-## Deployment principles
-
-### 1. Build before deploy
-
-A change should not be deployed if the build is failing.
-
-Before deployment, verify:
-
-- required dependencies are installed;
-- the correct package manager is used;
-- build commands are known;
-- build output is generated successfully;
-- build artifacts are expected;
-- no unexpected generated files are included.
-
-### 2. Environment awareness
-
-Deployment safety depends on the target environment.
-
-Always identify:
-
-- local;
-- development;
-- staging;
-- QA;
-- validation;
-- production.
-
-Do not assume that configuration is the same across environments.
-
-### 3. Secrets must stay protected
-
-Never expose secrets, tokens, passwords, private keys, or production credentials.
-
-When reviewing deployment configuration, check:
-
-- secrets are not committed;
-- `.env` files are not accidentally tracked;
-- CI/CD secrets are referenced safely;
-- logs do not print sensitive values;
-- fallback values are safe.
-
-### 4. Release should be reversible
-
-A deployment plan should include rollback or recovery steps when the change is non-trivial.
-
-Rollback may include:
-
-- reverting a commit;
-- redeploying the previous artifact;
-- restoring a previous configuration;
-- disabling a feature flag;
-- reverting a database migration when safe;
-- applying a hotfix.
-
-If rollback is not possible, state the risk clearly.
-
-### 5. Smoke tests are mandatory for meaningful releases
-
-A deployment is not complete when the command finishes.
-
-After deployment, define smoke tests for the most important flows.
-
-Examples:
-
-- application loads;
-- authentication works;
-- critical page opens;
-- API health check passes;
-- key form submits successfully;
-- checkout or payment flow works when relevant;
-- background job or queue starts when relevant.
-
-### 6. Do not deploy uncertainty
-
-If important information is missing, mark the deployment as blocked.
-
-Examples:
-
-- unknown target environment;
-- missing build command;
-- missing environment variables;
-- failing validation;
-- no rollback path for a risky change;
-- unresolved database migration risk;
-- unavailable target environment.
-
-## Deployment checklist
-
-Use this checklist proportionally to the deployment risk.
-
-### Pre-deploy
-
-- What is being deployed?
-- Which environment is the target?
-- Is the scope clear?
-- Are release notes or PR summary available?
-- Are dependencies installed?
-- Was the build executed successfully?
-- Were relevant tests executed?
-- Are environment variables documented?
-- Are required secrets configured?
-- Are database migrations needed?
-- Are external services affected?
-- Is there a rollback plan?
-- Are known risks documented?
-
-### CI/CD
-
-Use this section when CI/CD is involved.
-
-- Did workflow files change?
-- Are workflow triggers correct?
-- Are required jobs present?
-- Are cache settings safe?
-- Are secrets referenced correctly?
-- Are deployment environments protected?
-- Are build artifacts uploaded or deployed correctly?
-- Are failures visible?
-- Are manual approval gates needed?
-
-### Database and migrations
-
-Use this section when deployment affects persistence.
-
-- Are migrations backward compatible?
-- Can the application run during migration?
-- Is there existing production data affected?
-- Is rollback safe?
-- Is a backup needed before migration?
-- Are destructive operations avoided?
-- Are long-running migrations considered?
-- Are indexes needed for new queries?
-
-### Configuration
-
-- Are required environment variables known?
-- Are default values safe?
-- Are production values different from development values?
-- Are feature flags needed?
-- Are domains, API URLs, or callback URLs correct?
-- Are file permissions or storage paths relevant?
-- Are CORS or CSP rules affected?
-
-### Post-deploy
-
-- Does the application load?
-- Do critical routes work?
-- Does authentication work when relevant?
-- Do critical API calls work?
-- Do logs show new errors?
-- Are background jobs running when relevant?
-- Are monitoring alerts clean?
-- Are smoke tests documented?
-- Is rollback still available after release?
-
-## Failure classification
-
-When deployment fails, classify the failure.
-
-### Build failure
-
-The project cannot produce the expected deployable output.
-
-Examples:
-
-- compile error;
-- bundler error;
-- missing dependency;
-- invalid import;
-- asset generation failure.
-
-### CI/CD failure
-
-The pipeline fails before, during, or after deployment.
-
-Examples:
-
-- invalid workflow syntax;
-- failed job;
-- missing secret;
-- permission error;
-- artifact upload failure;
-- deployment step failure.
-
-### Environment failure
-
-The target environment is not ready or cannot run the application.
-
-Examples:
-
-- missing environment variable;
-- unavailable service;
-- invalid runtime version;
-- missing database connection;
-- file permission issue;
-- DNS or domain misconfiguration.
-
-### Runtime failure
-
-The deployment completes but the application fails at runtime.
-
-Examples:
-
-- server crash;
-- browser console error;
-- API failure;
-- failed health check;
-- broken route;
-- hydration error;
-- queue worker failure.
-
-### Data migration failure
-
-The deployment fails or becomes unsafe because of persistence changes.
-
-Examples:
-
-- migration error;
-- destructive schema change;
-- lock timeout;
-- incompatible schema;
-- failed rollback;
-- corrupted data.

-```
-
-## Severity model
-
-### High
-
-Use `High` when the issue can cause:
-
-- production outage;
-- failed deployment;
-- unavailable critical flow;
-- data loss;
-- data corruption;
-- secret exposure;
-- irreversible migration;
-- broken rollback path;
-- deployment of unvalidated critical changes.
-
-### Medium
-
-Use `Medium` when the issue can cause:
-
-- incomplete deployment validation;
-- missing smoke tests;
-- unclear environment configuration;
-- fragile CI/CD step;
-- weak rollback plan;
-- partial runtime risk;
-- missing operational documentation.
-
-### Low
-
-Use `Low` when the issue is related to:
-
-- minor release note gap;
-- small documentation improvement;
-- non-blocking cleanup;
-- optional monitoring improvement;
-- small checklist improvement.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-When acting as deploy engineer, Codex must not:
-
-- deploy to production unless explicitly instructed;
-- claim deployment succeeded without evidence;
-- expose secrets or credentials;
-- recommend destructive migration without explicit approval;
-- ignore failing build or tests;
-- skip rollback discussion for risky changes;
-- assume environment configuration without evidence;
-- change CI/CD workflows without a plan;
-- run destructive cleanup commands without explicit permission;
-- approve deployment when critical validation is missing.
-
-## Destructive operation rule
-
-Deployment work often includes high-risk operations.
-
-Do not run or recommend destructive operations as a default.
-
-Examples requiring explicit approval:
-
-```bash
-rm -rf
-git reset --hard
-git clean -fd
-docker system prune
-dropdb
-truncate table
-php artisan migrate:fresh
-npm publish
-pnpm publish
-composer update
-kubectl delete
-terraform destroy
-```
-
-If a destructive operation appears necessary, explain:
-
-- why it is needed;
-- what can be lost;
-- whether a backup exists;
-- what safer alternative exists;
-- how rollback would work.
-
-## Approval criteria
-
-A deployment can proceed when:
-
-- the target environment is known;
-- the deployment scope is clear;
-- build validation passed or the exception is justified;
-- relevant tests were executed or explicitly deferred;
-- required configuration is known;
-- secrets are handled safely;
-- database migration risk is addressed when relevant;
-- smoke tests are defined;
-- rollback or recovery path is defined;
-- no high-severity unresolved issue remains.
-
-Use `Proceed` when deployment is safe enough to execute.
-
-Use `Needs changes` when fixable deployment gaps remain.
-
-Use `Blocked` when critical information, validation, environment access, secrets, rollback path, or build success is missing.
-
-## Good deploy engineer behavior
-
-A good deploy engineer response is:
-
-- cautious;
-- evidence-based;
-- explicit about environment;
-- strict about secrets;
-- strict about build failures;
-- clear about smoke tests;
-- clear about rollback;
-- practical about release risk.
-
-The goal is not to deploy quickly.
-
-The goal is to release safely, detect problems early, and recover if something goes wrong.
-
-## Stop conditions
-
-- Stop when the deployment plan is complete, smoke tests are defined, and rollback is documented.
-- Stop and report `Blocked` if critical environment info, secrets, or build validation is missing.
