# Production Deployment Skill
## Pre-Deploy Gate
All must pass before deploying:
```bash
npm test # tests must pass
npm run lint # no lint errors
npm run typecheck # no type errors
```
If any fail: STOP. Do not deploy. Fix first.
## Build
```bash
npm run build
```
Verify build output exists and looks correct.
## Deploy
```bash
npm run deploy:prod
# or
# vercel --prod
# or your deployment command
```
## Post-Deploy Verification
Wait 60 seconds, then verify:
1. Health check endpoint responds
2. Key user flows work (login, core action)
3. Error rate in monitoring is normal
4. Response times are normal
If issues found → see @references/rollback.md
## Monitoring
For post-deploy monitoring setup: @references/monitoring.md
## Rollback
