Guides

Cross-cutting how-to documentation for tasks that span multiple IPA stacks or skills. Each guide follows the Guide Format Standard and addresses a single workflow goal.

All guides follow the IPA builder workflow sequence: compose, prepare, deploy, iterate, hand off.

  • Composing a Solution — Select and assemble stacks into a deployable composition with generated Makefiles and wiring.
  • Local Development — Run the FastAPI backend and React frontend locally against deployed AWS infrastructure.
  • Notebook Development — Prototype and test with Jupyter notebooks connected to deployed resources.
  • CI/CD with CodePipeline — Automate build, deploy, and test with CodePipeline executing the same Makefile targets.
  • Extending with Skills — Author a custom stack skill and integrate it with /ipa.compose.
  • Path to Production — Harden, document, and hand off a composition to the customer team.
