Every account your build needs, named before you start.
You find out
what it needed
halfway through.
Every build stalls in the same place: three days in, when it turns out the thing needs a sending domain, and a database you said it would not need, and a scope on a token you already granted too broadly.
Answer nine questions and get the whole list up front — with the exact permission each one wants, and what it costs.
Nine questions · no account · nothing leaves your browser
Or read the catalogue of all 13 services first, if you would rather see the raw material before answering anything.
What arrives when
Panel state updates as you read — no port lights until something in your build needs it
Stage 01
Every build starts with two
Somewhere the code lives, and somewhere it runs. Nothing else on this panel is required until you say what the thing does.
Stage 02
Then you say people sign in
And a database arrives, and with it row-level security, session cookies and a rate limit on the login. One answer, four obligations.
Stage 03
Then it takes money, or sends mail
A processor with a scoped key. A sending domain with DNS records, because mail without them is mail that lands in spam.
Stage 04
The rest are the ones people forget
Uploads that must be allowlisted and kept out of the web root. Measurement, without which you are guessing about what happened.
What you get
A list you can hand over without reading it twice.
- The exact scope
- Not “connect your GitHub”. A fine-grained token on one repository, Contents read and write. A permission you can check afterwards is a permission you can revoke.
- What it costs, with a date
- The real free allowance, and the day it was last read from the vendor. A figure without a date is a figure that quietly went stale two price changes ago.
- What breaks without it
- Stated per service, so you can drop one on purpose. A form with no mail service collects a message and delivers it nowhere — worse than having no form.
- The checks it has to pass
- Forty-six of them, mechanical, attached to the manifest. Your assistant is not done when it says it is done — it is done when the standard passes.
It takes about four minutes and costs nothing.
