Compares deployed CloudFormation templates with locally synthesized CDK templates to detect drift, validate changes, and ensure consistency before deployment. Use when the user wants to compare CDK output with a deployed stack, check for infrastructure drift, run a pre-deployment validation, audit IAM or security changes, investigate a failing deployment, or perform a 'cdk diff'-style review. Triggered by phrases like 'compare templates', 'check for drift', 'cfn drift', 'stack comparison', 'infrastructure drift detection', 'safe to deploy', or 'what changed in my CDK stack'.
