deploy-protocol

name	deploy-protocol
description	Enforce the DEPLOY.md deployment-debt protocol when writing one-off scripts, patches, or workarounds in a customer deployment repo. Use whenever work in this repo produces code that exists because of a specific customer environment rather than the core product - hacks, glue scripts, manual fixes, config overrides.

Deployment-debt protocol

You are working in a customer deployment repo. Any one-off code written here is deployment debt and must be logged as soon as you write it.

What to follow

Read DEPLOY.md at the root of this repo and follow "The protocol" and "Rules of thumb" sections verbatim - required log fields, verdicts, sanitization, small-hack rule, unlogged-debt rule. That file is the source of truth for the workflow; this skill is just the trigger.

Agent-specific behavior

• When you search for existing capabilities (step 1 of the protocol), tell the user what you searched and what you found. The human has no other way to verify.
• If the user asks you to skip the protocol, comply, but list the unlogged debt at the end of your response so it isn't silently lost.
