Production Launch Checklist

Status (YYYY-MM-DD): [TODO: one-line current state — what's live, what remains.]

Items are split into phases. Phase 1 covers everything needed to go live. Later phases cover handoff / hardening and can follow.


Phase 1: Getting to Production

Infrastructure Setup

  • [TODO: provision compute, network, DNS]

Application Secrets

  • [TODO: every secret the prod app needs, and where it comes from]

Initial Data Population (in order)

  • [TODO: migrations, seed data, first admin user]

Pre-launch Polish (non-blocking)

  • [TODO: real legal copy, rotate temp credentials, scheduled jobs]

Capacity / Tuning (post-load-test)

  • [TODO: DB sizing, autoscaling limits — validate against a load test]

Phase 2: Hardening / Edge (optional, can defer)

  • [TODO]

Phase 3: Repo / Ownership Handoff

Do these together with stakeholders after launch is stable.

  • [TODO: repo transfer, OIDC/trust-policy updates, deploy-trigger tightening]
