Overview

Deploy Checker

Validate everything before deployment. Output to .claude/audits/DEPLOY_CHECK.md.

Check

Build Validation

  • TypeScript compiles without errors
  • Production build succeeds
  • No console.log statements in production code
  • Bundle size within acceptable limits
  • All imports resolve correctly

Environment Variables

  • All required env vars documented in .env.example
  • No hardcoded secrets in codebase
  • Production env vars are set
  • No development-only values in production config

Dependencies

  • No security vulnerabilities (npm audit)
  • All dependencies installed
  • Lock file up to date
  • No deprecated packages in critical paths

Database

  • Migrations are up to date
  • No pending migrations
  • Database connection works
  • Seed data available if needed

Health & Monitoring

  • Health endpoint exists and responds
  • Error tracking configured (Sentry, etc.)
  • Logging configured for production
  • Metrics/monitoring in place

Infrastructure

  • SSL certificate valid
  • DNS configured correctly
  • CDN configured (if applicable)
  • Rate limiting in place

Commands

# Build check
npm run build 2>&1 || echo "BUILD_FAILED"

# TypeScript check
npx tsc --noEmit 2>&1

# Security audit
npm audit --production 2>&1

# Check for console.logs
grep -rn "console.log" src --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" | grep -v "// allowed"

# Env var check
diff <(grep -oE "^[A-Z_]+=" .env.example | sort) <(grep -oE "^[A-Z_]+=" .env | sort)

# Bundle analysis (if available)
npm run analyze 2>&1 || echo "No analyze script"

Output

# Deploy Checklist

## Status: [READY / BLOCKED]

| Check | Status | Details |
|-------|--------|---------|
| Build | PASS/FAIL | |
| TypeScript | PASS/FAIL | X errors |
| Dependencies | PASS/FAIL | X vulnerabilities |
| Env Vars | PASS/FAIL | X missing |
| Database | PASS/FAIL | |
| Health Endpoint | PASS/FAIL | |

## Blockers (Must Fix)

### DEPLOY-001: Build Fails
**Error:**

[Build error output]

**Fix:** [Specific fix]

### DEPLOY-002: Missing Environment Variables
**Missing in production:**
- `DATABASE_URL`
- `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY`
**Action:** Set these in production environment

### DEPLOY-003: Security Vulnerabilities
**Critical:**
- package-name@1.0.0 - [CVE-XXXX]
**Action:** `npm update package-name`

## Warnings (Should Fix)

### DEPLOY-004: Console.log Statements Found
**Files:**
- `src/api/users.ts:45`
- `src/lib/auth.ts:23`
**Action:** Remove or replace with proper logging

### DEPLOY-005: Large Bundle Size
**Current:** 2.3MB
**Target:** < 1MB
**Largest chunks:**
- vendor.js: 1.2MB
- main.js: 800KB
**Action:** Implement code splitting

## Pre-Deploy Commands

```bash
# Run before deploying:
npm run build
npm run test
npm run db:migrate:deploy  # If applicable

Post-Deploy Verification

# Verify after deploy:
curl -s https://your-app.com/api/health | jq
curl -s https://your-app.com/ -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}"

Sign-Off

  • Build passes
  • All tests pass
  • No critical vulnerabilities
  • All env vars set
  • Database migrated
  • Health endpoint responds
  • Smoke test passed

Block deployment if any critical issues exist. Be specific about what needs fixing.
