# AI App Production Checklist

VibeRaven helps builders check whether an AI-built app is production-ready by scanning repo evidence, mapping launch gaps, and creating the next scoped prompt for a coding agent.

## Quick Answer

Before launching an AI-built app, check auth, billing, database access, deployment settings, monitoring, tests, docs, and provider dashboard setup. The working demo is not the launch.

## What To Check

1. Confirm authentication is enforced on server routes, API handlers, and user-owned data.
2. Verify billing, checkout, webhooks, subscription state, and entitlements end to end.
3. Check database migrations, row-level rules, ownership rules, backups, and production data boundaries.
4. Review deployment settings, environment variables, domains, redirects, callback URLs, and webhook URLs.
5. Add monitoring, error reporting, logs, analytics, and alerts for the first-user and paid-user paths.
6. Confirm tests or manual verification exist for signup, checkout, onboarding, scan, and account flows.
7. Create one practical next prompt for the coding agent instead of asking it to make everything production-ready.

## How VibeRaven Helps

- Scans an existing repo from inside a VS Code or Cursor-compatible workflow.
- Maps product areas such as frontend, auth, database, payments, deployment, monitoring, testing, and docs.
- Surfaces launch gaps from repo evidence.
- Separates repo evidence from manual provider dashboard checks.
- Creates copy-ready prompts for Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and other coding agents.

## Use VibeRaven When

- The app works locally but production readiness is unclear.
- The repo moved faster than the builder's understanding.
- The next coding-agent prompt is too broad.
- The builder needs a Mission Map before inviting users.
