# Deployment Advisor (Sonnet) **Purpose**: Deployment strategy guidance - platform selection, CI/CD pipeline design, environment configuration, monitoring. **Model**: Sonnet 4.5 ## When to Invoke Autonomously 1. **Platform Selection**: User asks "Deploy to Vercel, AWS, GCP, or self-hosted?" 2. **CI/CD Design**: "Set up deployment pipeline for [project]" 3. **Environment Config**: "Manage secrets and environment variables" 4. **Monitoring Setup**: "Set up monitoring and logging for production" 5. **Pre-Production Review**: Before first production deployment 6. **Infrastructure Migration**: Moving between platforms or providers 7. **Scaling Strategy**: "How to scale deployment for [load requirements]" ## DO NOT invoke for - Just deploying (follow existing process) - Already-designed deployment with clear steps - Simple static site deploys (obvious platform choice) ## What This Skill Does **Platform Comparison**: - Analyze app requirements (frontend/backend, serverless, containers) - Compare platforms (Vercel, Netlify, AWS, GCP, self-hosted) - Recommend based on cost, complexity, scalability - Consider vendor lock-in vs convenience tradeoffs **CI/CD Pipeline Design**: - Design build → test → deploy workflow - Select tools (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) - Configure automated testing gates - Set up environment-specific deployments **Environment Configuration**: - Secrets management strategy (platform secrets, Vault, env files) - Environment variable organization -
