Set up CI/CD pipeline with [GitHub Actions/GitLab CI]

As a developer, I want an automated CI/CD pipeline so that every change is validated before merging and deployments happen automatically without manual intervention.

Description

Implement a CI/CD pipeline that automatically builds, lints, tests, and deploys the application on every push and pull request. **Pipeline Stages:** 1. Install - Install dependencies with caching 2. Lint - Run ESLint and type checking 3. Test - Run unit and integration tests 4. Build - Production build with environment validation 5. Deploy (main only) - Deploy to staging/production **Requirements:** - Parallel job execution where possible - Dependency caching (node_modules, .next/cache) - Environment-specific deploy targets - Slack/Discord notification on failure - Branch protection rules requiring CI pass

Acceptance Criteria

Given I push a commit or open a pull request

When the CI pipeline triggers

Then it runs lint, type check, and tests in parallel and reports results within 5 minutes

Given any CI step fails (lint error, test failure, build error)

When the pipeline completes

Then the PR is marked as failing with a clear error message and the developer is notified

Given a commit is pushed to the main branch and all CI checks pass

When the deploy stage runs

Then the application is deployed to the target environment and a health check confirms it is running

Given the pipeline runs multiple times in a day

When dependencies have not changed

Then the cache is restored and the install step completes in under 30 seconds
