Great question—we treat generated code as production code too.
Secrets/Env:
- `${{ secrets.YOUR_SECRET }}` GitHub Actions syntax throughout
- `.env.example` + docker-compose.yml with all expected vars
- No hardcoded values; all externalized
Proving it works:
- Built-in fixture tests (`npm test`) for every integration point
- `npm run apcher:full-scan` catches CVEs + dep issues pre-ZIP
- Watchdog generates synthetic drift tests that run on startup
- Idempotency baked in (safe to retry 1K times)
Example ZIP includes Stripe test mode keys + Postgres docker fixture.
