replica-deploy

# replica-deploy Reads everything in `replica/`. Writes `replica/deploy.md` (the checklist in `preflight.md` in this folder, filled in). ## The rules - **Nothing goes live without the user's go.** Show the preflight results and ask. - **The user buys and signs in.** Claude never buys a domain, enters a card, types a password or pastes a live key. Claude writes the exact DNS records, env var names and commands; the user does the account steps. - **Not until it is rebranded.** The sweep must be clean. No exceptions. ## Step 1: preflight Run every check and paste the results into `deploy.md`: ```bash npx playwright test # replica-test python3 ../replica-diff/parity.py replica/features.csv # must-haves done python3 ../replica-brand/sweep.py . --config replica/brand.json # exit 0: clean python3 ../replica-launch/listing.py replica/launch/listing.json # if shipping to stores npm run build # production build passes ``` (Paths are relative to wherever the pack is installed. Under `~/.claude/skills/` that is `~/.claude/skills/replica-diff/parity.py` and so on.) Plus by hand: no open S1 or S2 bugs, privacy policy and terms pages live (listing every processor), cookie banner if you use non-essential cookies in the EU or UK, account deletion works, the favicon, titles and OG image are yours. Any failure stops the deploy. Say which and why. ## Step 2: production services - A **separate production project** for the database (never the dev one), backups on, migrations run by the deploy, not by hand. - Env vars set in the host for production, matching `.env.example`. Live keys only here. - **Stripe**: switch to live mode, recreate products and prices, add the production webhook endpoint and its signing secret, test one real purchase and refund it. - **OAuth**: add the production domain to every provider's redirect URIs and authorised origins. Google scopes that need verification must be approved, or only test users can sign in. - **Email**: the sending domain verified with the provider. ## Step 3: host and domain Default: Vercel for Next.js (Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Fly or Render otherwise). Connect the repo so `main` deploys and pull requests get preview URLs. The domain, after the user buys it at any registrar: | record | name | value | | --- | --- | --- | | A | @ | the host's apex IP (Vercel: shown in the domain settings) | | CNAME | www | the host's target (Vercel: `cname.vercel-dns.com`) | | TXT | @ or a subdomain | the host's verification value, if asked | Email DNS from the email provider: SPF (TXT), DKIM (CNAME or TXT), and a DMARC record starting at `v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:you@yourdomain` then tightened to `quarantine` once reports are clean. Without these, your confirmation emails go to spam. Pick one canonical host (apex or www) and redirect the other. HTTPS is automatic on the hosts above; check it. ## Step 4: watch it Error tracking (Sentry or the host's), uptime checks on the home page and the core flow's API, logs kept, analytics (a privacy-friendly one avoids the cookie banner), and an alert to the user's email or phone. Then do the core flow on the live site yourself, and ask the user to do it on their phone. ## Step 5: mobile, if there is an app Expo: `eas build` then `eas submit` to TestFlight and Play internal testing. Native: archive in Xcode, upload to App Store Connect; Gradle bundle to Play Console. The user owns the developer accounts ($99 a year for Apple, $25 once for Google). Beta first, then review with the listing from replica-launch. ## Output `replica/deploy.md` with every check and its result, the live URL, the DNS records set, and what to watch in the first week. The clone is now an app with your name on it.
