When to Activate

• User wants to deploy a backend or set up infrastructure
• User mentions Docker, docker-compose, containerization, or multi-stage builds
• User asks about CI/CD, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or automated deploy pipelines
• User mentions Kubernetes, K8s, Helm, or container orchestration
• User asks about dev/staging/prod environments, secrets, or environment promotion
• User asks about readiness/liveness probes, graceful shutdown, or health checks
• User asks whether to use containers, serverless, or a PaaS

Prerequisites

See _shared/tool-rules.md for the investigation toolkit. Use cross-platform tools (glob, read) instead of shell-specific commands.
