Updates from the lab

A client engineer cloned the repo, ran compose, and the twin actually opened. We wrote the checklist down so we wouldn’t forget what worked: README in a known place, env template committed, CI green, and a twelve-minute video for cold start plus the two ways it usually breaks.

If we can’t hit that bar, we don’t get to call the sprint “done.” Sounds uptight; saves an incredible amount of Slack archaeology.

Data-flow and key-custody slides are now sprint artifacts alongside architecture and MVP scope. Security isn’t a week-four panic; it’s a parallel track with explicit owners.

Teams grumbled once, then admitted fewer fire drills before sign-off. We’re keeping it.
