deploy-checklist is a skill for Claude Code from charlieviettq/awesome-agent-skill. It costs 46 tokens per session (564 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of deploy-checklist, MIT.

A checklist for deciding whether a software release is ready to deploy, including tests, approvals, database changes, monitoring, and rollback plans.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before staging or production deployments to verify CI, smoke tests, feature flags, migrations, monitoring, user flows, and rollback triggers.
Why use it?
It reduces missed steps and makes it easier to detect problems quickly after a change reaches production.

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

deploy-checklist 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 9d 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.

Output

## Deploy Checklist: [Service/Release]
**Date:** [Date] | **Deployer:** [Name]

### Pre-Deploy
- [ ] All tests passing in CI
- [ ] Code reviewed and approved
- [ ] No known critical bugs in release
- [ ] Database migrations tested (if applicable)
- [ ] Feature flags configured (if applicable)
- [ ] Rollback plan documented
- [ ] On-call team notified

### Deploy
- [ ] Deploy to staging and verify
- [ ] Run smoke tests
- [ ] Deploy to production (canary if available)
- [ ] Monitor error rates and latency for 15 min
- [ ] Verify key user flows

### Post-Deploy
- [ ] Confirm metrics are nominal
- [ ] Update release notes / changelog
- [ ] Notify stakeholders
- [ ] Close related tickets

### Rollback Triggers
- Error rate exceeds [X]%
- P50 latency exceeds [X]ms
- [Critical user flow] fails

Customization

Tell me about your deploy and I'll customize the checklist:

  • "We use feature flags" → adds flag verification steps
  • "This includes a database migration" → adds migration-specific checks
  • "This is a breaking API change" → adds consumer notification steps

If Connectors Available

If ~~source control is connected:

  • Pull the release diff and list of changes
  • Verify all PRs are approved and merged

If ~~CI/CD is connected:

  • Check build and test status automatically
  • Verify pipeline is green before deploy

If ~~monitoring is connected:

  • Pre-fill rollback trigger thresholds from current baselines
  • Set up post-deploy metric watch

Tips

  1. Run before every deploy — Even routine ones. Checklists prevent "I forgot to..."
  2. Customize once, reuse — Tell me your stack and I'll remember your deploy process.
  3. Include rollback criteria — Decide when to roll back before you deploy, not during.

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.
