    About This Skill

    The Ultimate Quality Gate for Production Deploys

    Deploying shouldn't be a "fingers crossed" experience. Pre-Deploy Guardian is an automated 8-phase validation pipeline designed to catch the critical failures that standard CI/CD pipelines often miss, such as misconfigured environment variables, breaking API contracts, and missing rollback strategies.

    What it does

    This skill systematically audits your project across eight key dimensions:

    • Environment Scan: Validates .env files against examples and flags placeholders.
    • Code Health: Verifies test stability, linting, and build integrity.
    • Dependency Audit: Scans for high-severity CVEs and loose version ranges.
    • Data Layer: Detects pending or destructive migrations (DROP/TRUNCATE).
    • API Stability: Flags breaking changes in routes and response formats.
    • Security Gate: Hunts for hardcoded secrets and debug-mode leakage.
    • Rollback Plan: Generates a custom, ready-to-execute recovery document.
    • Deploy Summary: Produces a final Green/Yellow/Red readiness report.

    Why use this skill?

    While CI proves the code builds, Pre-Deploy Guardian proves the code is safe for production. It acts as an expert DevOps engineer standing between your merge and your customers, ensuring you never ship a broken migration or an exposed API key again. It supports any framework using standard manifest files (package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, etc.).
