Core checks
Run astropress doctor before local launches and before releases. It should catch missing secrets, weak defaults, missing local data paths, and missing ASTROPRESS_APP_HOST, ASTROPRESS_CONTENT_SERVICES, or ASTROPRESS_SERVICE_ORIGIN settings early.
Backup and restore
Use astropress backup and astropress restore for local content and config snapshots. Treat hosted restore and rollback procedures as explicit follow-up work, not solved problems.
Release honesty
Astropress should document operational gaps plainly. Hosted secret rotation, hosted rollback procedures, and staging-backed incident drills are still limitations rather than marketing bullets.
