What it does

Nestjs Deployment is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Containerize NestJS apps with multi-stage Docker builds, tune Node.js memory, and implement graceful shutdown hooks. Use when writing Dockerfiles, configuring K8s deployments, or adding shutdown hooks for NestJS.

Its SKILL.md is about 690 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/example.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Containers, Deployment and Container orchestration. It works with NestJS, Docker, Kubernetes and Node.js. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing Dockerfiles
  • Configuring K8s deployments
  • Adding shutdown hooks for NestJS

Example prompts

  • “/nestjs-deployment”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Docker

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Write multi-stage Dockerfile — Build stage installs devDeps and runs nest build; run stage copies only dist and pruned node_modules.
  2. Set non-root user — Add USER node to Dockerfile.
  3. Tune memory — Set --max-old-space-size to ~75% of container memory limit.
  4. Enable shutdown hooks — Call app.enableShutdownHooks() in main.ts.
  5. Add K8s pre-stop — Configure 5-10s sleep pre-stop hook for LB draining.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node
    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Nestjs Deployment loads about 692 tokens when it runs, and up to ~791 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 276 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~692
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~791

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Deployment & Ops Standards

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Workflow: Containerize NestJS App

  1. Write multi-stage Dockerfile — Build stage installs devDeps and runs nest build; run stage copies only dist and pruned node_modules.
  2. Set non-root user — Add USER node to Dockerfile.
  3. Tune memory — Set --max-old-space-size to ~75% of container memory limit.
  4. Enable shutdown hooks — Call app.enableShutdownHooks() in main.ts.
  5. Add K8s pre-stop — Configure 5-10s sleep pre-stop hook for LB draining.

Dockerfile Example

See implementation examples

Runtime Tuning (Node.js)

  • Memory Config: Container memory != Node memory.
  • Rule: Explicitly set Max Old Space.
  • Command: node --max-old-space-size=XXX dist/main
  • Calculation: Set to ~75-80% of Kubernetes Limit. (Limit: 1GB -> OldSpace: 800MB).
  • Graceful Shutdown:
  • Signal: Listen to SIGTERM.
  • NestJS: app.enableShutdownHooks() mandatory.
  • Sleep: Add "Pre-Stop" sleep in K8s (5-10s) to allow Load Balancer to drain connections before Node process stops accepting traffic.

Init Patterns

  • Database Migrations:
  • Anti-Pattern: Running migration in main.ts on startup.
  • Pro Pattern: Use Init Container in Kubernetes that runs npm run typeorm:migration:run before app container starts.

Environment Variables & CI/CD

  • CI/CD Pipelines (GitHub, GitLab, Azure, etc.):
  • If you modify src/config/env.validation.ts to add new environment variable, you MUST map it explicitly in your deployment pipeline/infrastructure-as-code.
  • Platform Context:
  • Cloud Run/ECS: Variables must explicitly passed in service definition.
  • Kubernetes: New variables must added to Deployment manifest or ConfigMap/Secret.
  • Lambda/Serverless: Must added to serverless.yml or provider console.
  • Fundamental Rule: Application code configuration changes "breaking changes" for infrastructure layer. Never assume environment inheritance.

Anti-Patterns

  • No migrations in main.ts: Use K8s Init Containers or pre-deploy CI steps for migration runs.
  • No root user in Docker: Always add USER node to Dockerfile; running as root security risk.
  • No unbounded Node heap: Set --max-old-space-size to ~75% of container memory limit.
