deploy-checklist SKILL.md skillA

deploy-checklist from drafthq/draft is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add drafthq/draft/deploy-checklist@git:20260819.fda278e

Pins git:20260819.fda278e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Pre-deployment verification checklist. Generates customized checklists based on tech-stack with rollback triggers. Auto-invoked by /draft:upload.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Deploy Checklist

You are generating a pre-deployment verification checklist customized to this project's technology stack.

## MANDATORY GRAPH LOOKUP (read before Phase 1)

When `draft/graph/schema.yaml` exists, this skill **must** follow the graph-first lookup contract in [core/shared/graph-query.md](../../core/shared/graph-query.md) §Mandatory Lookup Contract. Use the graph to validate module boundaries before the deploy:

1. For each file in the deploy diff, run `"$DRAFT_TOOLS/graph-impact.sh" --repo . --file <path>` to enumerate the modules affected — flag any module **not** declared in `hld.md` §Detailed Design as a deployment-scope miss.
2. Run `"$DRAFT_TOOLS/cycle-detect.sh" --repo .` (and query `"$DRAFT_TOOLS/graph-arch.sh" --repo .` for the module overview) to ensure no fresh cycles were introduced after HLD sign-off.
3. Run `"$DRAFT_TOOLS/hotspot-rank.sh" --repo .` — any hotspot in the diff escalates the Resiliency row of Phase 0.

Filesystem `grep` is reserved for source-text scans (migration file names, flag-key strings). Module/impact discovery goes through the graph.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add drafthq/draft/deploy-checklist@sha256:7231b22bb40757d4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.fda278e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
