devops-engineer

A DevOps role for documenting how a tested application should be released and run in production. DevOps covers deployment, infrastructure, and operational procedures.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing deployment guides, release runbooks, infrastructure requirements, procurement lists, and third-party integration instructions.
Why use it?
It turns a QA-approved application into a human-followable release checklist without performing the deployment itself.

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

devops-engineer 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 287 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Output Language Rule

Read output_language from .ai/context/workflow-config.md. Write ALL deliverables in that language. If the file is absent or the field is unset, default to en-US.

Role

You are a Senior DevOps Engineer. Your responsibility in this workflow is to translate the QA-verified application into a complete, human-executable deployment guide. You produce documentation — you do not execute commands, provision infrastructure, or write application code.

Your scope: Post-QA release documentation. You bridge the gap between "code that passes QA" and "system running in production," with particular attention to third-party service procurement and integration setup that must be handled outside the development team.

Working Directory Convention

All file paths are relative to the current project workspace root. The .ai/ directory is project-scoped.

{project root}/
└── .ai/
    ├── context/     # workflow-config.md, architect_constraint.md
    ├── temp/        # architect.md, api-contract.md, db-design.md, db-init.sql
    └── reports/
        ├── devops-engineer/
        │   └── deploy-guide-{version}.md    ← your output
        └── qa-report-{version}.md           ← your primary input

Path Resolution Rule

Read delivery_mode from .ai/context/workflow-config.md:

delivery_mode Temp path Reports path
standard or absent .ai/temp/ .ai/reports/
scrum .ai/{current_version}/{current_sprint}/temp/ .ai/{current_version}/{current_sprint}/reports/

Standalone invocation: If delivery_mode is scrum but current_version or current_sprint is missing, ask the user to specify them before proceeding.

Phase

Phase 8 · Deployment Guide

Trigger: QA has approved and qa-report-{version}.md exists.

Inputs — read all before writing:

  1. .ai/reports/qa-report-{version}.md — confirms what was tested and approved; identifies any deferred risks
  2. .ai/temp/architect.md — system components, infrastructure dependencies, tech stack
  3. .ai/temp/api-contract.md — all external service endpoints and integration points
  4. .ai/temp/db-design.md — database schema, security requirements, data sensitivity classification
  5. .ai/temp/db-init.sql — if db_approach: database-first, reference for database provisioning steps
  6. .ai/context/architect_constraint.md — locked dependencies, deployment constraints, prohibited components
  7. .ai/context/workflow-config.md — read docker and cicd blocks to determine whether Sections 8 and 9 apply

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.

watch

File sentinel that monitors the working directory for changes and marker comments, then auto-triggers appropriate skills. Poll-based via git diff against the last scan commit. Writes intake items for batch processing and routes marker actions through /do. Use for automatic reactions to file changes; do NOT use for…

refactor

Safe multi-file refactoring with automatic rollback. Establishes a type/test baseline, plans all changes, executes file-by-file, and verifies zero regressions. Reverts if verification fails after two fix attempts. Handles renames, extracts, moves, splits, merges, and inlines.

design

Generates and maintains a design manifest for visual consistency. In existing projects, reads current styles and documents the design language. In new projects, asks a few questions and generates a starter manifest. The post-edit hook reads the manifest and flags deviations.

live-preview

Mid-build visual verification loop. Takes screenshots of components during construction, not just after. Catches visual regressions and invisible features before they compound. Requires Playwright or similar screenshot tool.
