/ipa.codepipeline

Deploy a CI/CD pipeline that automates the same build, test, and deploy workflow that runs locally via Makefiles. Creates a CodeCommit repository and a CodePipeline with CodeBuild.

Invocation

/ipa.codepipeline

Parameters

/ipa.codepipeline prompts for configuration interactively.

Parameter	Default	Description
Repository name	{namespace}-{env}-repo	CodeCommit repository name
Branch	main	Source branch that triggers the pipeline

Prerequisites from .env:

Variable	Source
APP_NAMESPACE	/ipa.init
APP_ENV	/ipa.init
AWS_ACCOUNT_ID	/ipa.init
AWS_REGION	/ipa.init
APP_CODEBUILD_ROLE_ARN	/ipa.security
Composed Makefiles in scripts/	/ipa.compose

What It Does

1. Pre-flight checks — Verifies .env has init, security, and compose prerequisites. Detects any existing pipeline.

2. Source configuration — Prompts for repository name and branch.

3. Query prepare stacks — Fetches ECR and Cognito stack outputs to inject as CodeBuild environment variables.

4. Confirmation summary — Displays the full configuration table before deployment.

5. Deploy CodeCommit stack — Creates {namespace}-{env}-codecommit with the source repository.

6. Deploy CodePipeline stack — Creates {namespace}-{env}-codepipeline with a four-stage pipeline:

   • Test — Runs make -f scripts/test.mk test
   • Build — Runs make -f scripts/build.mk build
   • Deploy — Runs make -f scripts/deploy.mk deploy
   • PostDeploy — Runs make -f scripts/post-deploy.mk post-deploy

7. Write .env pipeline block — Stores pipeline configuration variables.

8. Completion report — Displays pipeline URL, clone instructions, and buildspec details.

Update Flow

When an existing pipeline is detected, the skill displays the current configuration and offers to re-query prepare stack outputs and update the pipeline.

Outputs

Artifact	Description
CodeCommit stack	{APP_NAMESPACE}-{APP_ENV}-codecommit
CodePipeline stack	{APP_NAMESPACE}-{APP_ENV}-codepipeline
.env variables	PIPELINE_STACK_NAME, PIPELINE_NAME, CODEBUILD_PROJECT_NAME, CODECOMMIT_STACK_NAME, CODECOMMIT_REPO_NAME, CODECOMMIT_CLONE_URL

Examples

Set up CI/CD for the first time:

/ipa.codepipeline

Provide a repository name and branch. The skill deploys CodeCommit and CodePipeline stacks, then displays the clone URL and pipeline URL.

Update an existing pipeline:

/ipa.codepipeline

The skill detects the existing pipeline configuration and offers to update it with current prepare stack outputs.
