Deploy Skill

Guided deployment with pre-deploy checklist and checkpoint creation

Commands

Command	Description	Example
/deploy dev	Deploy to development	/deploy dev
/deploy staging	Deploy to staging	/deploy staging
/deploy prod	Deploy to production (full checklist)	/deploy prod

Note: Auto-deploy is not possible from the Gemini CLI Extension. This skill provides a guided checklist and ensures safety steps are taken. The actual deploy command must be run by the user or CI/CD pipeline.

How to Execute

1. Pre-Deploy Checkpoint

Before any deployment:

1. Call bkit_checkpoint to create a restore point
2. Record the checkpoint ID for potential rollback
3. Note: If checkpoint fails, warn user but do not block

2. Environment-Specific Checklists

Development (/deploy dev)

• All modified files saved
• No syntax errors (node -c on changed files)
• Local tests pass (if configured)
• Checkpoint created

Staging (/deploy staging)

All of dev checklist, plus:

• PDCA Check phase completed (match rate >= 80%)
• No TODO or FIXME in changed files
• Environment variables documented
• API changes backward-compatible

Production (/deploy prod)

All of staging checklist, plus:

• PDCA Check phase completed (match rate >= 90%)
• Code review completed (/code-review)
• All tests pass
• No debug/console.log statements
• Rollback plan documented
• PDCA report generated (/pdca report)
• Changelog updated

3. Deploy Command Guidance

After checklist is verified, provide the appropriate deploy command:

# Development
npm run deploy:dev    # or project-specific command

# Staging
npm run deploy:staging

# Production
npm run deploy:prod

4. Post-Deploy Verification

After deployment:

1. Verify the deployment was successful
2. Check health endpoints (if applicable)
3. Update PDCA status to "deployed"
4. Log the deployment in audit trail

Output Format

## Deploy Checklist: {environment}

### Pre-Deploy
- [x] Checkpoint created (ID: chk-20260409-143000)
- [x] Syntax check passed (12 files)
- [x] PDCA match rate: 94%
- [ ] Code review: PENDING

### Deploy Command
Run: `npm run deploy:staging`

### Post-Deploy
- [ ] Verify health endpoint
- [ ] Update PDCA status

Safety Rules

1. Production requires explicit confirmation - Never auto-deploy to prod
2. Checkpoint is mandatory - Always create before deploy
3. Match rate threshold - Warn if below required threshold for environment
4. Rollback ready - Always provide rollback instructions with checkpoint ID
