Production deployment

Before production use, verify:

  • API keys and admin keys are not default values.
  • Secrets are stored in the deployment platform, not committed to Git.
  • NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE or API proxy configuration points to the correct production API.
  • Anchoring RPC, contract address, private key, and gas funding are configured.
  • x402 recipient, facilitator, chain, and token settings match the target environment.
  • Rate limiting and idempotency settings match expected traffic.
  • Webhooks use HTTPS endpoints and signature verification where supported.

Deployment surfaces

  • Backend FastAPI service
  • Web app / dashboard
  • Independent documentation site
  • Optional x402 test app or campaign app
  • Worker or polling process for anchoring and monitoring
Warning

Do not deploy with blank production environment variables. Blank envs can override working local defaults and cause production-only failures.
