SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides operators through deploying a merged lesser-body change across AWS stages in the correct order, while avoiding CloudFormation mistakes, missing SSM exports, and unsafe live rollouts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stage-by-stage deployment: Coordinates lab/dev, staging, and live deployments with required soak checks.
  • First-deploy sequencing: Enforces the three-step order with lesser when a new app-stage pair is being deployed for the first time.
  • Production safeguards: Reminds operators to avoid CDK timeouts, publish SSM exports on every deploy, and require explicit authorization before live rollout.
  • Rollback and release support: Covers Lambda version rollback, stack rollback, and release-artifact publication for managed-consumer ingestion.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to deploy lesser-body to the target stage using the canonical CDK command and report the deploy record with soak and rollback notes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely deploy a merged CDK change across AWS staging and production stages?▼

To safely deploy a CDK change across AWS stages, you orchestrate stage-by-stage rollouts from lab to live, enforcing soak validation checks and requiring explicit authorization before promoting to production.

What is the correct first-time deployment sequence for a new AWS Lambda and session-table stage?▼

First-time deployment of a new app-stage pair requires a strict three-step sequencing order coordinated with lesser, ensuring correct SSM export publication and stage-specific Lambda and session-table wiring.

Why does my CDK deployment fail when rolling out AWS Lambda updates without timeouts?▼

CDK deployment fails or becomes unsafe when using timeout shortcuts; safe rollouts require avoiding these shortcuts, verifying SSM exports on every deploy, and applying strict authorization and monitoring controls.

How do I rollback an AWS Lambda version and publish release artifacts for managed consumers?▼

Rollback and release support covers Lambda version rollback, CloudFormation stack rollback, and release-artifact publication, enabling managed-consumer ingestion directly from the deployed stage records.

Do I need to publish SSM exports on every CDK deploy across lab, staging, and live?▼

Yes, publishing SSM exports is required on every deploy across lab, staging, and live stages to maintain correct stack wiring and prevent CloudFormation mistakes during lesser-body change rollouts.
