Operate Ecs Services Safely

Agent skill
1 skill

Use before ANY change to a deployed container service behind a load balancer (AWS ECS/Fargate, or equivalent) — changing an env var / task-def, scaling, deploying, terminating an instance — AND when such a service is down (502/503, deploy stuck below desired, tasks failing the LB health check) or a scheduled/cron worker isn't running. A verify-before-mutate discipline + an observe→diagnose→recover playbook. Principle-first; AWS ECS commands shown, but the failure modes apply to any orchestrated container service.
