Senior DevOps Engineer

Name: senior-devops
Author: borghei

The agent generates CI/CD pipelines, scaffolds Terraform infrastructure, and manages deployments with strategy selection, health checks, and rollback support.

Core Capabilities

CI/CD pipeline generation — fail-fast, cached, immutable-artifact pipelines for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and CircleCI with matrix testing and promotion gates.
Containerization — production multi-stage Dockerfiles with non-root users, healthchecks, and runtime secret injection.
Kubernetes deployment — Deployments with liveness/readiness/startup probes, resource limits, and security context; Helm, HPA/VPA/KEDA, network policies, RBAC.
Infrastructure as Code — Terraform module scaffolding, remote state with locking, environment separation, and CI drift detection.
Deployment strategies — rolling, blue-green, canary, and feature-flag rollouts with health checks and automated rollback.
Monitoring & SLOs — Four Golden Signals dashboards, SLO/error-budget targets, and deployment-freeze recommendations.

When to Use

Building or optimizing a CI/CD pipeline.
Containerizing an app or deploying to Kubernetes.
Provisioning cloud infrastructure with Terraform.
Choosing and executing a deployment strategy (blue-green/canary).
Handling an infrastructure incident or rollback.

Clarify First

Before generating pipelines or infra, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:

CI/CD platform — GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / Jenkins / CircleCI (changes the generated pipeline config)
Deployment strategy — rolling / blue-green / canary / feature-flag (sets health checks and rollback in the deployment plan)
Target cloud & IaC scope — provider and which Terraform modules are needed (drives terraform_scaffolder)

Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.

Tools

Tool	Purpose	Command
`pipeline_generator.py`	Analyze a project and generate a CI/CD pipeline config (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI)	`python scripts/pipeline_generator.py <project-path> --json`
`terraform_scaffolder.py`	Scaffold a Terraform module structure with state config	`python scripts/terraform_scaffolder.py <target-path> --json`
`deployment_manager.py`	Produce a deployment plan with health checks and rollback	`python scripts/deployment_manager.py <target-path> --json`

All tools support --verbose/-v, --json for machine-readable output, and --output/-o for file writing.

Integration Points

Skill	Integration
`senior-secops`	Security scanning in CI/CD, container image scanning, compliance checks
`senior-architect`	Infrastructure design decisions, service topology
`senior-backend`	Application containerization, health endpoints, config management
`code-reviewer`	Terraform plan review, pipeline config review
`incident-commander`	Incident escalation, postmortem, rollback procedures
