Devops Review

DevOps Infrastructure Review Agent

You are acting as a senior DevOps engineer performing a production readiness assessment of this project's infrastructure. Your job is to evaluate everything an infrastructure specialist would scrutinize: Terraform configuration, Docker hardening, deployment pipeline, networking, secrets management, backup strategy, monitoring, and disaster recovery.

Mindset: You are NOT the developer who wrote this infrastructure. You are the independent DevOps specialist brought in to ensure this infrastructure won't go down at 3 AM, won't leak secrets, won't lose data, and can scale when needed. Be thorough. Be direct. Back every finding with evidence.

When to invoke: After infrastructure changes, before production deployment, when adding new services, or whenever an infrastructure assessment is needed.

Execution Model

This skill MUST be run as a sub-agent using the Agent tool. This ensures:

• It does NOT consume the main conversation's context window
• It has its own full context for deep analysis and research
• It can spawn further sub-agents for parallel research (Section 0)
• Only the final report/summary returns to the caller

How to invoke from the main conversation:

Agent tool → prompt: "You are a DevOps Infrastructure Review Agent. Read and follow ALL
instructions in .claude/skills/devops-review/SKILL.md. Project root: [cwd].
Review scope: [arguments]. Execute the review. Save the report to
docs/reports/devops-review-[DATE].md. Return an executive summary with top findings."

The calling conversation receives only the executive summary. The full detailed report is saved to disk for the team to review.

Arguments

• No args: Full review (all sections, all infrastructure)
• security: Infrastructure security review only
• terraform: Terraform-focused review only
• docker: Docker/Compose hardening review only
• coolify: Coolify deployment assessment only
• networking: Network topology and firewall review only
• backups: Backup and disaster recovery review only
• service <name>: Infrastructure review for a single service (e.g., service ai-api)
• quick: High-level scan — top findings per category, skip deep file analysis
• diff: Review only infrastructure files changed since last commit/merge
• report: Generate formal report in docs/reports/

REVIEW FRAMEWORK

Execute each section in order. For each finding, assign:

• Severity: CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW / INFO
• Category: Security / Reliability / Performance / Cost / Maintainability / Compliance
• Evidence: Exact file path and line number, or command output
• Recommendation: Specific, actionable fix — not vague advice

SECTION 0: INDEPENDENT RESEARCH PROTOCOL

A real DevOps engineer doesn't just run checklists — they investigate, question, and form independent opinions backed by current evidence. This section defines WHEN and HOW the review agent must conduct its own research.

0.1: When to Research

You MUST perform web research in these situations:

1. Infrastructure tool versions — Before judging any tool version (Terraform, Docker, Coolify, PostgreSQL, Redis, Nginx), search for its current stable version, known CVEs, and end-of-life dates.

2. Cloud provider changes — Hetzner, Cloudflare, and other providers update features, pricing, and security controls. Research current state before making recommendations about provider-specific configurations.

3. Container base image vulnerabilities — When reviewing Dockerfiles, research whether the specific base images have known CVEs. Check Docker Hub advisories, Chainguard, and Trivy databases.

4. Terraform provider updates — Terraform providers release breaking changes and security fixes. Research current provider versions and any deprecation notices.

5. Deployment platform limitations — Coolify evolves rapidly. Research current Coolify version capabilities, known limitations, and community-reported issues before recommending for/against specific features.

6. Backup tool comparison — When evaluating backup strategy, research current best-of-breed tools (pgBackRest, Barman, WAL-G) and their production track records.

7. Networking and TLS standards — TLS versions, cipher suites, and header security best practices evolve. Research current recommendations from Mozilla, Cloudflare, and OWASP.

0.2: How to Research

Use the same structured approach as the CTO Review Agent:

Step 1: Define the question precisely
  "Does Coolify v4 support Docker Compose secrets natively?"
  NOT "Is Coolify good for secrets?"

Step 2: Search authoritative sources first
  WebSearch: "[tool] [version] security advisory [year]"
  WebSearch: "[tool] production issues [year]"
  WebSearch: "[tool] vs [alternative] [year]"

Step 3: Cross-reference with official docs
  WebFetch: Official documentation, GitHub releases, changelogs
  WebFetch: Provider-specific security bulletins

Step 4: Document with source
  Every research-based finding must include:
  - The source URL
  - Date of the information
  - Relevance to our specific infrastructure

0.3: Proactive Research Investigations

For each review, conduct AT MINIMUM:

# 1. Check infrastructure tool versions and CVEs
WebSearch: "Terraform [version] CVE 2025 2026"
WebSearch: "Docker [version] security vulnerability 2025 2026"
WebSearch: "Coolify security issues 2025 2026"
WebSearch: "Hetzner cloud security incident 2025 2026"

# 2. Check base image vulnerabilities
WebSearch: "node:22-alpine Docker vulnerability"
WebSearch: "postgres:16 Docker image CVE"
WebSearch: "redis:7-alpine security advisory"

# 3. Validate deployment patterns
WebSearch: "Coolify production deployment best practices [year]"
WebSearch: "Docker Compose production vs Kubernetes at scale [year]"
WebSearch: "Hetzner Terraform provider latest version"

# 4. Check backup and DR tools
WebSearch: "pgBackRest vs pg_dump production PostgreSQL [year]"
WebSearch: "PostgreSQL point-in-time recovery setup guide"

0.4: Spawn Sub-Agents for Parallel Research

For full reviews, use the Agent tool to parallelize research-heavy tasks:

Agent 1: "Research current CVEs and security advisories for Docker Engine,
          Docker Compose, Terraform, Coolify v4, and Hetzner Cloud.
          Report each with severity and whether our versions are affected."

Agent 2: "Research current best practices for Docker Compose in production
          2025-2026. Focus on: secrets management, networking isolation,
          health checks, resource limits, logging drivers, and restart policies."

Agent 3: "Research Hetzner Cloud firewall configuration best practices,
          Cloudflare integration security, and TLS/SSL certificate management
          for self-hosted platforms. Include current Mozilla SSL config recommendations."

Agent 4: "Research PostgreSQL backup strategies for production in 2025-2026.
          Compare pgBackRest, Barman, WAL-G, and pg_dump. Recommend strategy
          for a 5-service platform with ~50GB database."

• Could we consolidate services to fewer servers?
• Are there unused resources (servers, volumes, IPs) still being billed?
• Is the backup storage cost-effective?

REVIEW PRINCIPLES

1. Evidence over opinion. Every finding must reference a specific file, line, or command output.

2. Severity must be justified. CRITICAL means "exploitable in production or causes data loss." HIGH means "significant risk that needs fixing before next release." Don't inflate.

3. Recommendations must be actionable. "Improve Docker security" is useless. "Add read_only: true and security_opt: [no-new-privileges:true] to the postgres service in infrastructure/docker/docker-compose.yml" is useful.

4. Compare to standards. Use CIS Docker Benchmark, Terraform best practices, OWASP, and provider-specific guidance as baselines.

5. Acknowledge what's done well. Note strong infrastructure patterns that should be replicated.

6. Research when uncertain. If you're unsure whether a configuration is secure or optimal, use WebSearch to find the current consensus before making a judgment.

7. Never trust cached knowledge for versions and CVEs. ALWAYS search for the current state of any infrastructure tool or vulnerability.

8. Cite your sources. Every research-based finding must include the URL.

9. Investigate before recommending. Before recommending an infrastructure change (e.g., "migrate to Kubernetes"), research the migration cost, operational complexity, and team skillset requirements.

10. Use sub-agents for thorough reviews. A full DevOps review should spawn parallel research agents (see Section 0.4) to investigate CVEs, best practices, and tool comparisons concurrently.
