deploy

A deployment workflow that commits code, sends it to a remote repository, runs the project’s CI/CD checks, and confirms that the deployed version works. CI/CD means automated systems that test and release software.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to release code locally, to development or staging environments, or to production while checking quality gates, tests, deployment settings, and post-release behavior.
Why use it?
It provides environment-specific checks before changes reach development, staging, or production. Production releases additionally require human approval and smoke tests, which are quick checks of key functions.

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 scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

ADD Deploy Skill v{{VERSION}}

Execute environment-aware deployment: commit changes, push to remote, trigger CI/CD, and verify successful deployment.

Overview

The Deploy skill orchestrates the final step of the development workflow:

  1. Commit — Stage and commit code changes with traceability
  2. Push — Push to remote repository and branch
  3. CI/CD — Trigger or monitor CI pipeline
  4. Verify — Confirm deployment success and run smoke tests

The skill is environment-aware: deployment to production is gated with additional safety checks and requires human approval.

Deployment flows:

  • Local: Commit only (no push)
  • Dev: Commit → Push → Optional CI
  • Staging: Commit → Push → CI required → Verify
  • Production: Commit → Push → CI required → Gated approval → Verify smoke tests

Pre-Flight Checks

  1. Verify code quality

    • Run /add:verify --level deploy (unless --skip-verify)
    • Halt if quality gates fail
    • Ensure all tests passing
  2. Load configuration

    • Read .add/config.json
    • Extract deployment settings:
      • ci.enabled (true/false)
      • ci.provider (github, gitlab, circleci, etc.)
      • environments: dev, staging, production configs
      • deployment.strategy (direct, blue-green, canary)
    • Load credential/auth settings
  3. Verify git repository

    • Confirm working directory is a git repo
    • Check git is configured (user.name, user.email)
    • Verify branch protection rules won't block merge
  4. Determine environment

    • Use --env flag or prompt user
    • Default: staging (safe default)
    • Validate environment exists in config
  5. Check for uncommitted changes

    • Run git status
    • Verify all relevant changes are staged
    • Halt if unintended changes exist
    • Ask user to review staged changes
  6. Verify feature branch

    • Confirm on feature branch (not main/master)
    • For production, branch should be up-to-date with main
    • For dev, any branch acceptable
  7. Check for session handoff

    • Read .add/handoff.md if it exists
    • Note any in-progress work or decisions relevant to this operation
    • If handoff mentions blockers for this skill's scope, warn before proceeding

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.

deploy is a skill published in the GitHub repository MountainUnicorn/add (11 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 4,496 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
