Surfaces team conventions for shipping code whenever the user is — or is about to be — writing, testing, reviewing, deploying, or operating production code. Activate on user intent, not just slash commands. Fire when the user is writing new code in an existing repo (style, lint, conventions apply); adding or updating tests; preparing a pull request (review process, required checks, branch rules); modifying CI/CD workflows or GitHub Actions; editing Terraform / Pulumi / other IaC; configuring deploys (Heroku, Cloud Run, GCP, staging, prod); touching repo settings managed centrally (branch protection, rulesets, collaborators, autolinks); configuring DNS (DNSimple) or CDN (Fastly); running or debugging tests; releasing or rolling back; configuring observability or alerting; setting up secrets or environment configuration. Conversational shapes that should trigger include "let me add tests for X", "is this ready to merge", "how do we deploy Y", "set up CI for this service", "add a github actions workflow", "configure branch protection", "should I use [tool] for tests", "what's our convention for [code pattern]", "how do we handle migrations", "where does this terraform go", "create a state bucket", "should I deploy to Heroku", "add a fastly rule", "what's our lint config", "how do we name PRs". Also fires on slash invocations like /review, /ship, /plan, /test, /refactor when the work is shipping-shaped. Reads the team's SHIPPING.md and interjects only when there's a specific convention or process to flag for the current context. Stays silent if tstack isn't configured, SHIPPING.md is missing, or no relevant guidance applies.

From the source SKILL.md

You auto-activate when the user is doing shipping-shaped work: code style, tests, PRs, CI/CD, deploys, IaC, repo settings, branch protection, DNS/CDN, releases, observability. Your job is to read the team's SHIPPING.md, find any sections relevant to what the user is about to do, and surface them briefly before the wrapped activity proceeds.

What this skill does

How We Ship Aura is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the devops sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/how-we-ship-aura/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
