-# Deployment Procedures
+# Deployment Principles
 
-> Deployment principles and decision-making for safe production releases.
-> **Learn to THINK, not memorize scripts.**
+> Deployments are not risky because of the code. They are risky because of all the
+> assumptions that have never been tested in production.

-## ⚠️ How to Use This Skill
+## The Core Tension
 
-This skill teaches **deployment principles**, not bash scripts to copy.
+Speed vs. safety. Moving fast reduces iteration time. Moving carefully reduces incidents.
+The answer is not "always be careful" — it's **make fast safe**.
 
-- Every deployment is unique
-- Understand the WHY behind each step
-- Adapt procedures to your platform
+That means:
+- Deployments that are reversible
+- Changes that are observable in real time
+- Failures that are isolated to a subset of users
+- State changes that can be undone without code changes
 
 ---
 
-## 1. Platform Selection
+## Five Phases of Safe Deployment
 
-### Decision Tree
+### Phase 1 — Pre-Flight
 
-```
-What are you deploying?
-│
-├── Static site / JAMstack
-│   └── Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages
-│
-├── Simple web app
-│   ├── Managed → Railway, Render, Fly.io
-│   └── Control → VPS + PM2/Docker
-│
-├── Microservices
-│   └── Container orchestration
-│
-└── Serverless
-    └── Edge functions, Lambda
-```
+Before touching anything in production:
 
-### Each Platform Has Different Procedures
+- [ ] Tests passing on the branch being deployed
+- [ ] No pending schema migrations that will break the current production code
+- [ ] Feature flags in place for any risky changes
+- [ ] Rollback plan confirmed — "delete the feature flag" is a valid plan, "redeploy" is not (too slow)
+- [ ] Team notified if deployment will cause visible disruption
 
-| Platform | Deployment Method |
-|----------|------------------|
-| **Vercel/Netlify** | Git push, auto-deploy |
-| **Railway/Render** | Git push or CLI |
-| **VPS + PM2** | SSH + manual steps |
-| **Docker** | Image push + orchestration |
-| **Kubernetes** | kubectl apply |
-
----
+### Phase 2 — Database First
 
-## 2. Pre-Deployment Principles
+If there are schema changes:
 
-### The 4 Verification Categories
+- Deploy the migration **before** the code that depends on it
+- Verify the migration completed and the database is healthy
+- The new code must be backward-compatible with the old schema (for the window during which old pods are still running)
 
-| Category | What to Check |
-|----------|--------------|
-| **Code Quality** | Tests passing, linting clean, reviewed |
-| **Build** | Production build works, no warnings |
-| **Environment** | Env vars set, secrets current |
-| **Safety** | Backup done, rollback plan ready |
+**Never:**
+- Add NOT NULL without a DEFAULT in the migration
+- Drop a column in the same deployment that removes the code referencing it
+- Run a migration that locks the table for more than a few seconds without scheduling a maintenance window
 
-### Pre-Deployment Checklist
-
-- [ ] All tests passing
-- [ ] Code reviewed and approved
-- [ ] Production build successful
-- [ ] Environment variables verified
-- [ ] Database migrations ready (if any)
-- [ ] Rollback plan documented
-- [ ] Team notified
-- [ ] Monitoring ready
-
----
+### Phase 3 — Code Deploy
 
-## 3. Deployment Workflow Principles
+Deploy with traffic distribution:
 
-### The 5-Phase Process
+| Strategy | Risk | When to Use |
+|---|---|---|
+| Direct (all-at-once) | High | Small teams, low traffic, with immediate rollback |
+| Rolling | Medium | Multiple instances, gradual update, auto-rollback on health fail |
+| Blue/Green | Low | Mission-critical services, instant switch and rollback |
+| Canary | Very low | Unknown risk level, expose to 1–5% of traffic first |
 
-```
-1. PREPARE
-   └── Verify code, build, env vars
+### Phase 4 — Verify
 
-2. BACKUP
-   └── Save current state before changing
+After deploying, watch:
 
-3. DEPLOY
-   └── Execute with monitoring open
+- Error rate — compare to pre-deploy baseline, not zero
+- Response time P50, P95, P99 — not just average
+- Business metric if visible (conversion, checkout completion)
+- Key logs for new error patterns
 
-4. VERIFY
-   └── Health check, logs, key flows
+Wait at minimum:
+- 5 minutes for canary verification
+- 15 minutes for a rolling deploy
+- Until traffic covers the full daily pattern for any significant feature
 
-5. CONFIRM or ROLLBACK
-   └── All good? Confirm. Issues? Rollback.
-```
+### Phase 5 — Complete or Roll Back
 
-### Phase Principles
+**Roll back when:**
+- Error rate increases by more than 2x pre-deploy baseline
+- P95 latency increases significantly without an expected cause
+- A critical user path stops working
 
-| Phase | Principle |
-|-------|-----------|
-| **Prepare** | Never deploy untested code |
-| **Backup** | Can't rollback without backup |
-| **Deploy** | Watch it happen, don't walk away |
-| **Verify** | Trust but verify |
-| **Confirm** | Have rollback trigger ready |
+**Complete when:**
+- All metrics stable for the required observation window
+- All instances updated
+- Feature flags cleaned up if used
 
 ---
 
-## 4. Post-Deployment Verification
-
-### What to Verify
-
-| Check | Why |
-|-------|-----|
-| **Health endpoint** | Service is running |
-| **Error logs** | No new errors |
-| **Key user flows** | Critical features work |
-| **Performance** | Response times acceptable |
+## Rollback vs. Roll Forward
 
-### Verification Window
-
-- **First 5 minutes**: Active monitoring
-- **15 minutes**: Confirm stable
-- **1 hour**: Final verification
-- **Next day**: Review metrics
+| Scenario | Recommendation |
+|---|---|
+| Bug in new code, no data mutations | Roll back (redeploy previous version) |
+| Bug in new code, data already mutated | Roll forward (fix the mutation in a follow-up deploy) |
+| Schema migration caused the issue | Fix forward — migrations are rarely safely reversible |
+| Feature flag controls the issue | Turn off the flag — fastest rollback possible |
 
 ---
 
-## 5. Rollback Principles
-
-### When to Rollback
-
-| Symptom | Action |
-|---------|--------|
-| Service down | Rollback immediately |
-| Critical errors | Rollback |
-| Performance >50% degraded | Consider rollback |
-| Minor issues | Fix forward if quick |
+## Environment Hierarchy
 
-### Rollback Strategy by Platform
+Code flows one direction: dev → staging → production. Never skip staging for anything non-trivial.
 
-| Platform | Rollback Method |
-|----------|----------------|
-| **Vercel/Netlify** | Redeploy previous commit |
-| **Railway/Render** | Rollback in dashboard |
-| **VPS + PM2** | Restore backup, restart |
-| **Docker** | Previous image tag |
-| **K8s** | kubectl rollout undo |
-
-### Rollback Principles
-
-1. **Speed over perfection**: Rollback first, debug later
-2. **Don't compound errors**: One rollback, not multiple changes
-3. **Communicate**: Tell team what happened
-4. **Post-mortem**: Understand why after stable
+- **Development:** Fast iteration, local data, no external consequences
+- **Staging:** Production-like data (anonymized), used for final verification
+- **Production:** Real users, real consequences, thorough before touching

-## 6. Zero-Downtime Deployment
-
-### Strategies
-
-| Strategy | How It Works |
-|----------|--------------|
-| **Rolling** | Replace instances one by one |
-| **Blue-Green** | Switch traffic between environments |
-| **Canary** | Gradual traffic shift |
+## What a Deployment Runbook Contains
 
-### Selection Principles
+For any significant deployment, document before starting:
 
-| Scenario | Strategy |
-|----------|----------|
-| Standard release | Rolling |
-| High-risk change | Blue-green (easy rollback) |
-| Need validation | Canary (test with real traffic) |
+```
+Date/Time:         
+Engineer:          
+What is changing:  
+Why:               
+Expected behavior:

-## 7. Emergency Procedures
+## Output Format
 
-### Service Down Priority
+When this skill produces a recommendation or design decision, structure your output as:
 
-1. **Assess**: What's the symptom?
-2. **Quick fix**: Restart if unclear
-3. **Rollback**: If restart doesn't help
-4. **Investigate**: After stable

+─────────────────────────────────────────────────
+Pre-Flight:  ✅ All checks passed
+             or ❌ [blocking item that must be resolved first]

-### Investigation Order
 
-| Check | Common Issues |

-## 8. Anti-Patterns
+## 🤖 LLM-Specific Traps
+
+AI coding assistants often fall into specific bad habits when dealing with this domain. These are strictly forbidden:
 
-| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
-|----------|-------|
-| Deploy on Friday | Deploy early in week |
-| Rush deployment | Follow the process |
-| Skip staging | Always test first |
-| Deploy without backup | Backup before deploy |
-| Walk away after deploy | Monitor for 15+ min |
-| Multiple changes at once | One change at a time |
+1. **Over-engineering:** Proposing complex abstractions or distributed systems when a simpler approach suffices.
+2. **Hallucinated Libraries/Methods:** Using non-existent methods or packages. Always `// VERIFY` or check `package.json` / `requirements.txt`.
+3. **Skipping Edge Cases:** Writing the "happy path" and ignoring error handling, timeouts, or data validation.
+4. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
+5. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or re-raising.
 
 ---
 
-## 9. Decision Checklist
+## 🏛️ Tribunal Integration (Anti-Hallucination)
 
-Before deploying:
+**Slash command: `/review` or `/tribunal-full`**
+**Active reviewers: `logic-reviewer` · `security-auditor`**
 
-- [ ] **Platform-appropriate procedure?**
-- [ ] **Backup strategy ready?**
-- [ ] **Rollback plan documented?**
-- [ ] **Monitoring configured?**
-- [ ] **Team notified?**
-- [ ] **Time to monitor after?**
+### ❌ Forbidden AI Tropes
 
----
+1. **Blind Assumptions:** Never make an assumption without documenting it clearly with `// VERIFY: [reason]`.
+2. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or handling.
+3. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
 
-## 10. Best Practices
+### ✅ Pre-Flight Self-Audit
 
-1. **Small, frequent deploys** over big releases
-2. **Feature flags** for risky changes
-3. **Automate** repetitive steps
-4. **Document** every deployment
-5. **Review** what went wrong after issues
-6. **Test rollback** before you need it
+Review these questions before confirming output:
+```
+✅ Did I rely ONLY on real, verified tools and methods?
+✅ Is this solution appropriately scoped to the user's constraints?
+✅ Did I handle potential failure modes and edge cases?
+✅ Have I avoided generic boilerplate that doesn't add value?
+```
 
----
+### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
 
-> **Remember:** Every deployment is a risk. Minimize risk through preparation, not speed.
+**CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
+- ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring a task complete because the output "looks correct."
+- ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from finalizing any task without providing **concrete evidence** (terminal output, passing tests, compile success, or equivalent proof) that your output works as intended.

+**Slash command: `/tribunal-backend`** (or invoke directly for devops)
+**Active reviewers: `logic` · `security` · `dependency`**
+
+### ❌ Forbidden AI Tropes in DevOps
+1. **Hardcoded Secrets/Credentials** — never generate scripts or IaC configurations with embedded secrets. Always use secret managers (AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, HashiCorp Vault) or CI/CD environment variables.
+2. **Missing State Management** — never generate Terraform code without defining a remote state backend.
+3. **Latest Tags in Containers** — never use `FROM image:latest` in Dockerfiles or Kubernetes manifests in production configurations; always pin specific tags or SHAs.
+4. **Permissive IAM Roles** — avoid wildcard `*` permissions in cloud IAM configurations; adhere to least privilege.
+5. **Ignoring Platform Cost** — avoid over-provisioning default resource requests/limits in Kubernetes without proper analysis.
+
+### ✅ Pre-Flight Self-Audit
+
+Review these questions before generating DevOps scripts or configurations:
+```text
+✅ Did I strictly avoid hardcoding any sensitive credentials or API keys?
+✅ Are all Docker or container image tags explicitly pinned?
+✅ Does the generated Infrastructure as Code (IaC) include appropriate networking defaults (private subnets, proper firewall rules)?
+✅ Are the Kubernetes manifests configured with resource limits and health probes?
+✅ Has logging and monitoring been wired up for the deployed components?

+
+### ❌ Forbidden AI Tropes in Incident Response
+1. **Restarting Without Evidence** — never suggest blindly restarting services without capturing a memory dump or analyzing logs first, as evidence will be destroyed.
+2. **Ignoring User Impact** — never close an incident or stop communicating before validating that full end-user functionality is restored.
+3. **Blaming Individuals** — never draft incident postmortems using names or assigning blame; always focus on systemic, blameless failures.
+4. **Modifying Production Unsafely** — never generate scripts that drop production data or forcefully terminate critical processes without safe fallback plans.
+5. **Drowning in Alerts** — do not configure alerting systems to alert linearly on every minor spike; require runbooks to enforce signal-to-noise ratio optimization.
+
+### ✅ Pre-Flight Self-Audit
+
+Review these questions before generating incident response plans or runbooks:
+```text
+✅ Did I include a clear mitigation strategy to quickly restore service before deep-diving the root cause?
+✅ Are specific metrics and logs identified to validate the issue?
+✅ Does the postmortem outline actionable, systemic fixes rather than human-error conclusions?
+✅ Is the response script/automation safe, including a rollback mechanism?
+✅ Are all communication steps mapped clearly across engineering and stakeholder channels?
+```
+
+### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
+
+**CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
+- ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring an incident mitigated or a fix deployed based solely on running a script without checking the aftermath.
+- ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from completing an incident response task without providing **concrete terminal/system evidence** (e.g., passing health check logs, restored metric readouts, or successful deployment logs) proving the service is fully restored.
