16	## Deploy Checklist: [Service/Release]
17	Date: [Date] \| Deployer: [Name]
18
19	### Pre-Deploy
20	- [ ] All tests passing in CI
21	- [ ] Code reviewed and approved
22	- [ ] No known critical bugs in release
23	- [ ] Database migrations tested (if applicable)
24	- [ ] Feature flags configured (if applicable)
25	- [ ] Rollback plan documented
26	- [ ] On-call team notified
27
28	### Deploy
29	- [ ] Deploy to staging and verify
30	- [ ] Run smoke tests
31	- [ ] Deploy to production (canary if available)
32	- [ ] Monitor error rates and latency for 15 min
33	- [ ] Verify key user flows
34
35	### Post-Deploy
36	- [ ] Confirm metrics are nominal
37	- [ ] Update release notes / changelog
38	- [ ] Notify stakeholders
39	- [ ] Close related tickets
40
41	### Rollback Triggers
42	- Error rate exceeds [X]%
43	- P50 latency exceeds [X]ms
44	- [Critical user flow] fails
45	```

47	## Customization
48
49	Tell me about your deploy and I'll customize the checklist:
50	- "We use feature flags" → adds flag verification steps
51	- "This includes a database migration" → adds migration-specific checks
52	- "This is a breaking API change" → adds consumer notification steps
53
54	## If Connectors Available
55
56	If ~~source control is connected:
57	- Pull the release diff and list of changes
58	- Verify all PRs are approved and merged
59
60	If ~~CI/CD is connected:
61	- Check build and test status automatically
62	- Verify pipeline is green before deploy
63
64	If ~~monitoring is connected:
65	- Pre-fill rollback trigger thresholds from current baselines
66	- Set up post-deploy metric watch
67
68	## Tips
69
70	1. Run before every deploy — Even routine ones. Checklists prevent "I forgot to..."
71	2. Customize once, reuse — Tell me your stack and I'll remember your deploy process.
72	3. Include rollback criteria — Decide when to roll back before you deploy, not during.
