deploy guard
Example session with this skill installed
I need to deploy a new Express feature to my VPS using PM2 and Nginx. It includes a new environment variable for Stripe and a database migration to add a 'status' column to the orders table.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the deploy guard
- Generated the document
I have audited your deployment plan for the Express feature. The primary risks identified are the new environment variable parity and the lack of a verified rollback for the schema migration.
Pre-Deploy Audit — Express App → Production VPS
Verdict: 🛑 NO-GO (Blockers identified)
Blockers (must fix before deploy)
- 🔴 Missing Env Var — The code requires
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRETbut it is missing from the server.env.- Fix: Add
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRETto your production.env. - Rollback: Remove the key if the feature is reverted.
- Fix: Add
- 🔴 Migration Safety — Adding a column to
ordersrequires a backup.- Check:
pg_dump -Fc mydb > pre_migrate.dump - Fix: Run backup before migration.
- Check:
Verified OK
- SSL: Certbot expires in 45 days.
- Disk: 62% utilized (18GB free).
- Nginx: Config test passed.
Runbook (est. downtime: ~5 sec at step 4)
- SNAPSHOT:
pg_dump -Fc mydb > backup-$(date +%F).dump. Rollback:pg_restore -d mydb backup.dump. - PULL:
git pull origin main✓ expect: Clean merge. Rollback:git reset --hard HEAD@{1}. - DEPS:
npm ci✓ expect:added X packages. - MIGRATE:
npx knex migrate:latest✓ expect:Batch 5 run. Rollback:npx knex migrate:rollback. - RELOAD:
pm2 reload app --update-env✓ expect: statusonline. Rollback:pm2 revert app. - SMOKE:
curl -f http://localhost:3000/healthand checkpm2 logs --lines 50.
Next steps
- Manually verify the
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRETis added to the server. - Run the backup command listed in step 0.
- Proceed with the numbered runbook steps.

What you get
About this skill
Ship without the 2AM rollback. Audits what actually breaks launches: env-var parity code↔server, secrets hygiene, lockfile, health endpoint, nginx gaps (websockets/timeouts/body size), pm2 startup persistence, SSL expiry, disk/RAM, and — above all — a tested rollback planned BEFORE the deploy. Outputs GO / NO-GO verdict, numbered copy-paste runbook with a rollback for every step, post-deploy smoke checklist. Built for Node/pm2/nginx/certbot VPS stacks and Docker. Migration safety rules included (expand-then-contract).
