Return code from cdk deploy and bootstrap commands

[ganeshnj]

We are trying to understand the errors that can happen while running cdk deploy, cdk bootstrap or any other cdk command, what is the expected exit code customer can expect other than 0 (success).

Holistically, I would like to know list of exit codes returned by CDK CLI. Is there a glossary that we can refer to?

There are deployment errors, which are errors directly returned from CloudFormation API calls. And there are synth-time errors, which should come with a clear error message. We don't use error codes as far as I'm aware
