Build 17 complete deployment checklist

1. Backup

Back up the existing public_html/REPARATION-BONDS/ directory, the main data/ database and any existing community-system databases before replacement.

2. Replace complete package

Upload the complete Build 17 contents into public_html/REPARATION-BONDS/. Do not mix selected files from earlier builds into the new package.

3. Data decision

If the live data/latent-register.sqlite contains records that must be kept, preserve that live database deliberately. Do not overwrite or delete live records accidentally.

4. Protection

Confirm direct web requests to both data/ directories are denied and admin pages require authentication.

5. Bond test

Create one LATENT test record; confirm £0 paid and £0 interest; open the flat B€ certificate; verify the Bond ID; inspect certificate history.

6. Community test

Open Community, Common Forum, Working Groups, My ID, Library and the Identity Engine. Confirm the B€ favicon/branding and that existing engine behaviour is unchanged.

7. Boundary test

Confirm there is no route that accepts money, creates ACTIVE, accrues interest, transfers ownership or redeems principal.

8. Mobile/browser test

Check the main site, financial certificate and community pages on desktop and mobile. Hard-refresh after upload so old favicons and CSS are not cached.
