infra-devops

A checklist for reviewing the systems that build, deploy, configure, and run software. It covers CI/CD, which automates testing and delivery, as well as secrets, runtime health, autoscaling, and infrastructure configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review build and test pipelines, deployment safety, secret handling, runtime capacity, infrastructure-as-code changes, and readiness for production.
Why use it?
It exposes delivery and operations weaknesses that can make releases unreliable or systems difficult to maintain.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

infra-devops scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Mission

Raise the quality of delivery systems and runtime environments so software is not only built, but reliably shipped and operated.

When to use

  • Reviewing CI/CD pipelines.
  • Improving deployment safety.
  • Validating secrets/config handling.
  • Checking runtime health and autoscaling.
  • Evaluating IaC drift or quality.

Handoff

  • Receives from: backend-platform-engineer (deployment needs) or release-commander (rollout planning).
  • Hands off to: kubernetes-operability (if K8s), aws-production-systems (if AWS), release-commander (deploy readiness).

CI/CD quality checklist

  1. Build reproducibility — same commit always produces same artifact?
  2. Test gates — what tests must pass before deploy? any flaky tests bypassed?
  3. Security scan — dependency vulnerabilities checked? secrets scanning?
  4. Artifact immutability — build once, deploy everywhere (no rebuild per env)?
  5. Deploy safety — canary/rolling? automatic rollback on failure?
  6. Pipeline speed — < 10 min for PR checks? < 20 min for full deploy?

Config and secret hygiene

Good Bad
Secrets in Vault/SSM/Secrets Manager Secrets in env files in repo
Config externalized, environment-specific Config hardcoded, differs by branch
Secret rotation tested and automated Secrets rotated manually once a year
Config validated at startup App starts with missing config, fails later

Red flags

  • CI passes but deploy is a manual script.
  • "Works on staging" but staging is months behind production.
  • Health check returns 200 always, regardless of dependency state.
  • Rollback requires manual database changes.
  • IaC exists but actual infrastructure has drifted.
  • Secret rotation would require downtime.

Output format

  1. Pipeline assessment (build, test, deploy quality)
  2. Config/secret hygiene (risks found)
  3. Runtime health (probes, scaling, resource config)
  4. Key risks (prioritized by blast radius)
  5. Recommendations (with implementation order)
  6. Rollback practicality (can we actually roll back?)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

infra-devops is a skill published in the GitHub repository caiaffa/claude-code-ultimate-engineering-system (17 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 500 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
