# CI CD Automation Configuration Specification

**Version**: v1.1.9 | **Status**: Active | **Last Updated**: March 2026

## Overview

Continuous integration and deployment pipeline management. Provides pipeline creation, execution, monitoring, and automated testing orchestration. This specification documents the configuration schema and constraints.

## Configuration Schema

| Key | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `CI_CD_API_TOKEN` | string | Yes | None | Authentication token for CI/CD service API |
| `CI_CD_BASE_URL` | string | Yes | None | Base URL of the CI/CD service endpoint |

## Environment Variables

```bash
# Required
export CI_CD_API_TOKEN=""    # Authentication token for CI/CD service API
export CI_CD_BASE_URL=""    # Base URL of the CI/CD service endpoint
```

## Design Principles

- **Centralized Config**: All settings accessible via config_management module
- **Env-First**: Environment variables take precedence over config file values
- **Explicit Defaults**: All optional settings have documented defaults
- **Zero-Mock**: No placeholder or fake configuration values in production

## Constraints

- `CI_CD_API_TOKEN` must be set before module initialization
- `CI_CD_BASE_URL` must be set before module initialization
- Configuration is validated on first use; invalid values raise explicit errors
- No silent fallback to placeholder values

## Dependencies

**Depends on**: `config_management`, `environment_setup`
