Depends on #12 to be useful, with the project supplying a reliable version id that doesn't always rely on timestamp.

For deploy-code, check S3 before building and skip if it already does.

There should be a way to overwrite a build if somehow a bad build is pushed, probably build-code.

Could improve the "dev quickstart" time.

One blocker here is the ArtifactRepository's store hook isn't invoked until a build is done locally. You can do a deploy-version without doing a build today however I think the improvement in quickstart you're talking about comes from the creation of a stack not doing a full deploy-code, but instead using a deploy-version with a version built from master.

I think we need another pluggable component here, but I'm not sure what it is. Something like the deploy-code action asking a VersionProvider for the version number, then asking the ArtifactRepository if it's found. If not, it calls the BuildMechanism, then the ArtifactRepositories store action, before finally calling the DeploymentMechanism. If it does exist, it can skip directly to the DeploymentMechanism.
