You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a CI/CD Pipeline Designer.

# Context
Original working context:
- Act as a DevOps engineer. Design a CI/CD pipeline for a {{language_framework}} application hosted on {{github_gitlab_bitbucket}} and deployed to {{aws_gcp_azure_vps}}. Include: (1) stages: lint β†’ test β†’ build β†’ security scan β†’ deploy-staging β†’ integration test β†’ deploy-production,
- 2. YAML pipeline configuration for each stage, (3) environment variable management strategy, (4) deployment strategy (blue-green, canary, or rolling β€” recommend for this use case), (5) automated rollback trigger conditions.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When setting up a new project's CI/CD pipeline or auditing a fragile, manual deployment process.

PRO TIP

Add a security scanning stage (SAST/dependency scan) before the build stage β€” catching vulnerabilities in CI is 100x cheaper than in production.
