Setup CI

You are helping the user set up CI/CD pipelines for deploying cloud infrastructure using stackql-deploy.

Input: $@

Follow these steps in order.

Step 1 - Detect the stack

Look for an existing stackql-deploy stack in the current project:

find . -name "stackql_manifest.yml" -not -path '*/.git/*' 2>/dev/null

If --stack is specified, use that path. If multiple manifests are found, ask the user which one to configure.

If no manifest is found, suggest using /stackql-skills:scaffold-stack first.

Step 2 - Read the manifest

Read the stackql_manifest.yml to understand:

• Stack name
• Providers used
• Resources being deployed
• Variables/parameters needed

Step 3 - Determine the CI provider

If --provider is specified, use that. Otherwise, check for existing CI configuration:

test -d .github/workflows && echo "github-actions"
test -f .gitlab-ci.yml && echo "gitlab"
test -d .circleci && echo "circleci"

Default to GitHub Actions if nothing is detected. Currently supported:

• github-actions (primary support)

Step 4 - Determine auth requirements

Based on the providers in the manifest, determine what secrets need to be configured:

Step 5 - Generate the workflow

GitHub Actions

Create .github/workflows/stackql-deploy.yml:

name: StackQL Deploy

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
    paths:
      - '<stack-path>/**'
  pull_request:
    branches: [main]
    paths:
      - '<stack-path>/**'
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
      action:
        description: 'Action to perform'
        required: true
        default: 'test'
        type: choice
        options:
          - build
          - test
          - teardown
      environment:
        description: 'Target environment'
        required: true
        default: 'dev'

env:
  STACK_NAME: <stack-name>
  STACK_DIR: <stack-path>

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    environment: ${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }}

    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: Set up Python
        uses: actions/setup-python@v5
        with:
          python-version: '3.11'

      - name: Install stackql-deploy
        run: pip install stackql-deploy

      - name: Install StackQL
        uses: stackql/setup-stackql@v2

      - name: Pull providers
        run: |
          stackql exec "REGISTRY PULL <provider>;"

      # Add auth steps based on provider (see Step 4)

      - name: Test (on PR)
        if: github.event_name == 'pull_request'
        run: |
          stackql-deploy test ${{ env.STACK_NAME }} ${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }} \
            --env-file ${{ env.STACK_DIR }}/vars/${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }}.json
        env:
          # Provider-specific env vars from secrets

      - name: Build (on push to main)
        if: github.event_name == 'push' || (github.event_name == 'workflow_dispatch' && github.event.inputs.action == 'build')
        run: |
          stackql-deploy build ${{ env.STACK_NAME }} ${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }} \
            --env-file ${{ env.STACK_DIR }}/vars/${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }}.json
        env:
          # Provider-specific env vars from secrets

      - name: Teardown (manual only)
        if: github.event_name == 'workflow_dispatch' && github.event.inputs.action == 'teardown'
        run: |
          stackql-deploy teardown ${{ env.STACK_NAME }} ${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }} \
            --env-file ${{ env.STACK_DIR }}/vars/${{ github.event.inputs.environment || 'dev' }}.json
        env:
          # Provider-specific env vars from secrets

Customize the auth steps based on the provider:

Google:

      - name: Authenticate to Google Cloud
        uses: google-github-actions/auth@v2
        with:
          credentials_json: ${{ secrets.GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS }}

AWS:

      - name: Configure AWS Credentials
        uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4
        with:
          aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
          aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
          aws-region: ${{ secrets.AWS_REGION }}

Azure:

      - name: Azure Login
        uses: azure/login@v2
        with:
          creds: |
            {
              "clientId": "${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_ID }}",
              "clientSecret": "${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET }}",
              "tenantId": "${{ secrets.AZURE_TENANT_ID }}",
              "subscriptionId": "${{ secrets.AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID }}"
            }

Step 6 - Report

Summarize what was created and what the user needs to do:

1. Files created: List the workflow file(s)
2. Secrets to configure: List the repository secrets that need to be set in GitHub (Settings -> Secrets and variables -> Actions)
3. How it works:
   • PRs run test to validate the stack
   • Push to main runs build to deploy
   • Manual workflow_dispatch supports build, test, and teardown with environment selection
4. Next steps: Configure the required secrets in the repository settings
