# Production Deploy Checklist
The environment/config items that are **not** enforced by code or CI and must be
verified on the production instance itself. Each has a boot-time warning or a
QA-plan pointer; this list is the single place they live (previously they only
existed in session notes).
## Required environment (production)
| Variable | Why | Symptom if missing |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY` | At-rest secrets (SimpleFIN token, SMTP/OIDC secrets, login IP/UA) otherwise fall back to a key stored **inside the database** — anyone with DB/backup read access can decrypt. On first boot with the key set, stored `v2:` ciphertexts migrate to env-keyed `e2:`. | Boot warning: `TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is not set in production` |
| `WEBAUTHN_RP_ID` | Passkeys bind cryptographically to this hostname; the `localhost` default silently breaks all passkey sign-ins behind a real domain. Bare hostname, no scheme/port (e.g. `bills.example.com`). Changing it later invalidates registered keys. | Boot warning: `WEBAUTHN_RP_ID is not set in production` |
| `WEBAUTHN_ORIGIN` (optional) | Pin the exact expected origin for WebAuthn ceremonies when the app is served from a non-default origin. When unset, the API origin plus any request origin whose hostname equals the RP ID is accepted. | Passkey enroll/sign-in fails origin verification |
## One-time settings (Admin panel / DB)
- [ ] **Turn OFF `simplefin_debug_logging`** on the production instance
(Admin → bank sync config). It is a debugging aid; leaving it on logs
more sync detail than production needs.
## Build/runtime infrastructure
- [ ] **`cdn.sheetjs.com` egress** — the lockfile pins `xlsx` to the official
SheetJS dist tarball (the npm registry line is abandoned with unfixed
high CVEs). CI runners and Docker builds must be able to reach it for
`npm ci`.
- [ ] **Node version alignment**`package.json` engines, the Dockerfile base
image, and the CI image must agree (all `node:22` today). Bump all three
together.
- [ ] Volumes/permissions/migrations: handled by `docker-entrypoint.sh`
(`chmod 700` data dirs, non-root `bill` user, `RUN_DB_MIGRATIONS=true`)
— covered by QA batch B16.
## Standing dependency guard
- `renovate.json` is in the repo — enable Renovate on the Forgejo instance for
grouped weekly update PRs.
- Until then, `.forgejo/workflows/deps-audit.yml` runs weekly: it fails on any
high+ vulnerability (`npm audit --omit=dev --audit-level=high`) and prints
`npm outdated`, so dependency rot surfaces as a red scheduled run instead of
waiting for the next manual audit.
- Deferred upgrade, tracked: **TypeScript 7** typechecks this codebase clean but
`typescript-eslint` (peer `<6.1.0`) cannot parse under it yet — revisit when
typescript-eslint ships TS 7 support.
