# Deploy Application

$ARGUMENTS

Deploy application to target environment.

## Project context

- Docker config: !`cat docker-compose.yml 2>/dev/null || cat Dockerfile 2>/dev/null || echo "no-docker"`

## Usage

```
/deploy [environment]
```

## What This Command Does

1. **Validates** deployment prerequisites
2. **Runs** pre-deployment checks
3. **Executes** deployment
4. **Verifies** deployment success

## Environments

| Environment | Description |
|-------------|-------------|
| `dev` | Development environment |
| `staging` | Staging/QA environment |
| `prod` | Production environment |

## Pre-Deployment Checklist

Run automated pre-deployment checks:
```bash
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/pre_deploy_check.py [environment]
```

Returns JSON with pass/fail for each check:
- `git_clean` - no uncommitted changes
- `branch` - on main/master for production
- `docker` - services running (if applicable)
- `env_file` - .env or .env.$ENV exists
- `build_artifacts` - dist/build present
- `tests_ran` - test result artifacts found

Manual verification:
- [ ] Tests passing
- [ ] Build successful
- [ ] Environment variables set
- [ ] Secrets configured
- [ ] Database migrations ready
- [ ] Rollback plan documented

## Deployment Strategies

| Strategy | Use Case |
|----------|----------|
| Rolling | Zero-downtime, gradual |
| Blue-Green | Instant switch, easy rollback |
| Canary | Risk mitigation, gradual traffic |
| Recreate | Simple, allows downtime |

## Output Format

```markdown
## Deployment Report

### Status: Success / Failed

### Details
- **Environment**: [env]
- **Version**: [version]
- **Started**: [timestamp]
- **Completed**: [timestamp]

### Steps
1. [Step 1] - Done
