Add production deployment templates: CI/CD, K8s, n8n orchestration, and observability

[Copilot]

Adds production-ready infrastructure and deployment templates to move from prototype to production. Includes automated pipelines, container orchestration, workflow automation, and operational runbooks.

Infrastructure

• CI/CD: GitHub Actions workflows for lint/test/build/deploy with explicit permissions and comprehensive smoke tests
• Docker: Production compose file with PostgreSQL, Redis, LangGraph API, and n8n orchestration
• Kubernetes: Deployment manifests with HPA, health probes, resource limits, and secrets management
• Environment: Template with placeholders for all required secrets and configuration

Orchestration & API

• n8n Workflows: Pre-built webhook triggers for LangGraph API integration with proper expression syntax
• FastAPI Server: Skeleton implementation with /health, /ready, /v1/graph/run endpoints using modern lifespan pattern
• Dependencies: Patched for CVE-2024-24762 (fastapi 0.109.1, python-multipart 0.0.18)

Documentation

• Deployment Guide: Step-by-step for Docker Compose and Kubernetes with prerequisite validation
• Observability Guide: Prometheus/Grafana setup, structured logging, OpenTelemetry tracing
• Runbook: Incident response procedures, rollback steps, common failure scenarios

Example Deployment

# Configure environment
cp .env.prod.example .env.prod
# Edit CHANGEME_* placeholders

# Deploy with Docker Compose
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d

# Or Kubernetes (after creating secrets)
kubectl apply -f k8s/

# Verify
curl http://localhost:8000/health

Security

• Zero hardcoded secrets (CHANGEME_* placeholders only)
• Least-privilege GitHub Actions permissions
• Non-root container execution
• All CVEs patched (0 vulnerabilities)
• CodeQL analysis passed

Implementation Notes

The FastAPI server (integration/api/server.py) is a skeleton with TODO placeholders for:

• Database/Redis connection logic
• LangGraph execution implementation
• Business-specific endpoints

This allows customization while providing working health checks and API structure.

Original prompt

Create a pull request that adds production-ready templates and documentation to the Stacey77/Rag7 repository to move the project from prototype to production. The PR should create a feature branch (e.g., prod-templates) and include the following files and changes:

1. CI and CD workflows

• .github/workflows/ci.yml (runs tests, linting, builds and pushes Docker images to GHCR)
• .github/workflows/cd-staging.yml (deploy to staging Kubernetes using kubeconfig secret)

2. Environment and Docker

• .env.prod.example (example production environment variables)
• docker-compose.prod.yml (production Docker Compose with postgres, redis, langgraph, n8n)

3. Kubernetes manifests

• k8s/langgraph-deployment.yaml (Deployment + Service with liveness/readiness and resources)
• k8s/hpa.yaml (HorizontalPodAutoscaler)

4. Documentation

• docs/deployment.md (deployment guide for compose and k8s)
• docs/observability.md (monitoring, metrics, tracing guidance)
• docs/runbook.md (incident runbook, rollbacks, troubleshooting checklist)

5. n8n sample workflows

• n8n/workflows/main_orchestrator.json (stubbed workflow with webhook trigger calling LangGraph API)
• n8n/workflows/langgraph_trigger.json (webhook to call LangGraph endpoint)
• n8n/credentials/credentials_template.json
• n8n/README.md (brief setup & import instructions)

6. Integration API skeleton

• integration/api/Dockerfile
• integration/api/server.py (FastAPI skeleton exposing /health, /ready, /v1/graph/run endpoint)
• integration/api/requirements.txt

7. Project metadata

• requirements.txt (top-level for python dev/test)
• pyproject.toml (basic metadata)

Add basic content for each file: working templates and stubs with comments and TODOs where the user needs to fill secrets or custom logic. Ensure files include health endpoints and example curl commands in docs. Include in the PR description the motivation, list of files added, and next steps: (1) update .env.prod, (2) add GHCR token and kubeconfig secrets, (3) import n8n workflows, (4) run docker-compose or deploy to k8s.

Target base branch: main. Create branch: prod-templates. Commit all files and open a PR titled "chore: add production templates (CI/CD, Docker, K8s, n8n, LangGraph)". Provide a clear PR body listing changes and instructions to test locally. Do not change existing files except README.md to add a short notice about new deployment templates.

Success criteria:

• PR opened against main with all files added
• Files are importable and syntactically correct YAML/JSON/Python
• Docs provide clear next steps for the repo owner to configure secrets and deploy

Do not assign reviewers. Leave PR as draft if any secrets placeholders remain.
