Verification Checklist

Environment Variables

  • Total count: 35 references
  • Critical infrastructure: 13 vars
  • Secrets (must encrypt): 12 vars
  • Feature flags & thresholds: 10+ vars
  • All mapped to Zod schemas

Current State Assessment

  • Existing config infrastructure identified
  • Critical gaps documented
  • Technology stack confirmed
  • Database schema designed
  • Migration pattern understood

Technology Stack

  • ORM: Knex.js 3.1.0
  • Database: PostgreSQL + TimescaleDB
  • Validation: Zod 3.23.8
  • Cache: Redis (ioredis 5.4.1)
  • API: Fastify 5.8.4
  • Logging: Pino 9.5.0

Design Decisions

  • Database schema (configs + config_audits tables)
  • Zod validation schemas (all 35 vars)
  • Resolution order (env → global → default → error)
  • Admin API endpoints (6 endpoints)
  • Cache strategy (5min TTL + pub/sub)
  • Audit trail design (full change history)
  • Safe defaults (embedded, production-safe)
  • Bulk operations (import/export)
  • Startup validation (required configs)
  • Deployment environments (5 environments)

Documentation

  • Reconnaissance report (14 sections)
  • Summary document (10 sections)
  • Architecture document (13 diagrams/flows)
  • Verification checklist (this document)

Screenshots Required for PR

1. Database Tables

Command:

psql -U bridge_watch -d bridge_watch -c "\dt configs config_audits"

Expected Output:

                List of relations
 Schema |      Name       | Type  |     Owner
--------+-----------------+-------+---------------
 public | configs         | table | bridge_watch
 public | config_audits   | table | bridge_watch

2. Hierarchical Resolution Test

Command:

npm run test -- config-service.test.ts --reporter=verbose

Expected Output:

✓ hierarchical resolution: env-specific (5ms)
✓ hierarchical resolution: global fallback (8ms)
✓ hierarchical resolution: safe default (2ms)
✓ hierarchical resolution: error on missing (1ms)

3. Bulk Import 100 Configs

Command:

yarn import-configs prod-us-east ./test-configs.json admin@test.com "Initial prod import"

Expected Output:

✓ Imported 100 configs in 245ms
✓ All values validated with Zod
✓ Audit trail created for all changes
✓ Cache invalidated across cluster

4. Cache Performance

Command:

npm run test -- cache-performance.test.ts

Expected Output:

Cache Hit (99% path):     0.8ms
Cache Miss (DB query):   45ms
Cache Invalidation:       2ms
Cluster Pub/Sub:          5ms
