  1. Progressive Deployment · robisson
    Deploy changes incrementally through expanding blast radius stages with bake time and automatic rollback on alarm.
    0 installs
  2. Raising The Bar In Code Review · robisson
    Applying Amazon's raise-the-bar principle to every code review. What reviewers look for — clarity, correctness, design, reuse, operational readiness. "Ship It" means the change raises or maintains the quality bar.

  3. Test Driven Development · robisson
    Red-Green-Refactor cycle with Amazon's test pyramid (80% unit, 15% integration, 5% e2e). Coverage gates, DAMP over DRY in tests, canary tests in production.
    0 installs
  4. Incremental Implementation · robisson
    Implementing features in thin vertical slices that each deliver value independently. Feature flags, safe defaults, rollback-friendly changes. Never a big-bang deployment.
    0 installs
  5. Spec Driven Implementation · robisson bundle
    Bridge between an approved Design Document and code. Decompose the system-level blueprint into N vertical specs (requirements → design → tasks), each independently deliverable. Fail fast by ordering hardest-first. Execute wave-by-wave with approval gates.

  6. Operational Readiness Review · robisson bundle
    The ORR process — a self-assessment checklist covering monitoring, alarming, runbooks, on-call, scaling, security, deployment safety, cost, and dependencies. Must pass before launch.
    0 installs
  7. Pipeline Safety · robisson
    CI/CD pipeline safety with automated gates, deployment blockers, alarm checks, and one-click rollback.
    0 installs
  8. Threat Modeling · robisson
    Security threat modeling using STRIDE methodology adapted for cloud services. Covers data classification, IAM boundaries, encryption requirements, blast radius analysis, and systematic identification of attack vectors before code is written.
    0 installs
  9. Operational Code · robisson
    Writing code with built-in observability from day one. Structured logging (JSON), metrics emission (latency p50/p99, error rates), alarm-ready code, request tracing, graceful degradation.
    0 installs
  10. Working Backwards · robisson
    Entry point for developing new products, features, or initiatives using Amazon's Working Backwards process. Orchestrates 5 stages from customer insight to measurable success, starting with the 5 Customer Questions as a lightweight on-ramp before committing to a full PR/FAQ.
    0 installs
  11. Contract First API Design · robisson
    Designing APIs contract-first with backward compatibility guarantees, clear versioning strategy, error semantics, idempotency, and pagination. The API is a promise—never break existing clients.
    0 installs
  12. Mechanism Creation · robisson
    Turning lessons learned into automated mechanisms that prevent recurrence of problems.
    0 installs
  13. Using Amazon Skills · robisson
    Meta-skill for navigating and applying the complete skills library. Routing flow chart, core operating behaviors, and skill discovery logic.
    0 installs
  14. Wb Test And Iterate · robisson
    Stage 5 of Working Backwards: Define how success will be measured using input and output metrics, set specific numeric targets, design experiments to validate assumptions, and plan iteration cycles based on data feedback.
    0 installs
  15. Brownfield Discovery · robisson
    Reverse-engineer an existing project to produce a Design Doc, API contracts, and a Threat Model anchored in the real code, IaC, and observability. Run once per project. Output anchors all subsequent /spec and /build invocations.
    0 installs
  16. Correction Of Errors · robisson bundle
    Blameless post-incident analysis focused on timeline, 5 Whys, mechanisms over people, and concrete action items with owners.
    0 installs
  17. Dependency Management · robisson
    Managing external dependencies safely with circuit breakers, timeouts, retries with exponential backoff, bulkhead pattern, graceful degradation, and dependency isolation.
    0 installs
  18. Implementation Memory · robisson
    Internal /build flow mechanism that maintains fixed-size procedural memory of durable implementation-quality lessons.
    0 installs
  19. Feature Flag Lifecycle · robisson
    Complete lifecycle of feature flags from creation through gradual rollout to cleanup, including kill switches and A/B testing.
    0 installs
  20. Infrastructure As Code · robisson
    CDK/CloudFormation design principles for immutable infrastructure, environment parity, least privilege, tagging strategy, and cost optimization. Infrastructure is code—it deserves the same rigor as application code.
    0 installs
  21. Operational Excellence · robisson
    Dashboards, alarms, and runbooks that make a service operable. Covers latency, error rate, availability, throughput, and severity-based alarming.
    0 installs
  22. Wb Define · robisson
    Stage 2 of Working Backwards: Articulate the customer's problem or opportunity with precision, using data to quantify impact and framing it in the customer's language — not engineering jargon.
    0 installs
  23. Wb Invent · robisson
    Stage 3 of Working Backwards: Generate multiple solution approaches, classify decisions as one-way vs two-way doors, evaluate alternatives against customer benefit and feasibility, and select the recommended solution with clear rationale.
    0 installs
  24. Wb Listen · robisson
    Stage 1 of Working Backwards: Identify who the customer is and gather deep insights about their current experience, pain points, and unmet needs through systematic observation and data collection.
    0 installs
  25. Wb Refine · robisson bundle
    Stage 4 of Working Backwards: Write the PR/FAQ — a press release announcing the product as if it already exists, plus a comprehensive FAQ addressing hard questions. This is the core Amazon mechanism that forces clarity, customer-centric thinking, and rigorous pre-mortems before any code is written.
