DecisionsQ09

Given

Separate stage/prod credentials and data stores are planned; synthetic fixtures contain canaries.

When

Inspect deployment configuration without printing secrets; provoke validation errors, worker failures, unsafe text and request-rate bursts.

Then / oracle

Staging cannot write production or send to real members. Logs/errors contain no private bodies, credentials or raw tokens. Limits are measured against agreed policy; authorised support gets safe incident and failed-job evidence.

Evidence required

Environment-access matrix; secret/body scan; error/rate-limit tests; runbook ownership.

Decision dependency (verbatim)

Q09: hosting region, data/processor approval, retention, incident owner and test rate budgets.
