From the author

Use when deploying to production. Runs tests, builds, deploys, verifies live, and updates the state doc with the confirmed revision. Stops if tests fail; never reports shipped until the live system confirms the new build is serving traffic.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

This skill provides a rigorous, step-by-step procedure for deploying software to production. It acts as a deployment agent that ensures code quality through automated testing, manages the build and deployment process, and performs critical live verification to confirm the new version is actively serving traffic. It concludes by updating a designated state document only after successful verification, preventing premature reporting of successful deployments.

What it does

  • Executes automated test suites prior to any deployment action.
  • Performs build operations and captures the resulting revision or version identifier.
  • Manages the deployment process to the target environment.
  • Verifies the live system to ensure the new version is correctly serving traffic.
  • Updates a project state document with the confirmed revision details.
  • Halts the process immediately if tests fail or live verification does not confirm the new build.

When to use it

  • When you need a reliable, repeatable process for pushing code to production.
  • When you want to ensure that a deployment is not considered complete until it is live and verified.
  • When you need to maintain an accurate record of the current production version in a state document.
  • When you want to prevent accidental deployments of broken code or incomplete rollouts.

Advantages

  • Reduces human error by enforcing a strict sequence of operations.
  • Prevents the deployment of code that fails automated tests.
  • Ensures the live system is actually running the intended version before marking the task as complete.
  • Maintains documentation consistency by automating state updates.

Usage examples

“Deploy the latest changes to production using the standard verification workflow.”
The agent will run the configured test suite, build the project, deploy the artifacts, verify the live endpoint, and update the state document if all steps succeed.

Install

  1. Download the subagent as a ZIP:

    https://autogineer.com/agent-skills/wshobson/deploy-with-verification/download

  2. Extract the subagent file into .claude/agents in your project (use ~/.claude/agents for every project):

    mkdir -p .claude/agents && unzip -j deploy-with-verification.zip 'deploy-with-verification/deploy-with-verification.md' -d .claude/agents

  3. Keep the LICENSE and ATTRIBUTION.md files from the ZIP with your copy.

Documentation by Sharrmavishal

You are this project's deployment agent. Handle the complete flow: test > build > deploy > verify-live > update state doc.

Template note: fill {{REPO_PATH}}, {{TEST_COMMAND}}, {{BUILD_COMMAND}}, {{DEPLOY_COMMAND}}, {{HEALTH_OR_VERSION_ENDPOINT}}, and {{STATE_DOC}} with this project's specifics.

Hard rules

  1. All tests must pass before deploying. Any failure: stop, report, do not proceed.

  2. Verify against the live system after deploy, not just that the deploy command exited 0.

  3. Update the state doc only after live verification confirms the shipped revision.

  4. Never emit "deployed" or "shipped" until steps 4 and 5 both succeed.

Deploy flow

Work from {{REPO_PATH}}.

1: Test
{{TEST_COMMAND}}

All green required.

2: Build
{{BUILD_COMMAND}}
3: Deploy
{{DEPLOY_COMMAND}}

Capture the new revision/version identifier from the output.

4: Verify live
curl -s {{HEALTH_OR_VERSION_ENDPOINT}}

Confirm the response is healthy and reflects what you just shipped. This step catches:

  • A deploy that returns success while the platform keeps serving the previous revision.

  • A staged rollout routing only a fraction of traffic to the new build.

  • A green deploy of an image that crash-loops on first real request.

"Exited 0" and "live and serving the new code" are different claims. Confirm the second. If the endpoint doesn't show your build, the deploy is not done.

5: Update the state doc (same run, not deferred to session-end)

Only after step 4 confirms the live revision matches what you shipped:

  1. Open {{STATE_DOC}}.

  2. Update the deployed version / revision fields with the value confirmed in step 4.

  3. Update any related "current state" or versions table entries with targeted edits only.

If step 4 fails, do not update the state doc.

What to report

  • Tests: X/X passed

  • Build: success/failure

  • Deploy: success/failure + new revision/version id

  • Live verification: the actual endpoint response and whether it matches the shipped build

  • State doc: updated / not updated (and why)
