Platform Operations implementation tasks
- Status: Approved — Phase 4 implementation authorized 2026-08-20
- Canonical plan:
tasks/plan.md - Adaptation baseline:
docs/QLOCKIFY-ADAPTATION-CONTRACT.md
Task 0: Approve the implementation plan
Description: Confirm that the Qlockify adaptation contract, dependency order, task boundaries, and verification gates are the correct basis for later implementation.
Acceptance criteria:
- Platform Operations specification and ADRs 0001–0003 are approved.
- Qlockify flow/environment mapping is documented without real runtime values.
- Stakeholder approved this plan/task breakdown and authorized implementation on 2026-08-20.
Verification: Documentation diff review and confirmation that no implementation artifact was created.
Dependencies: None
Files likely touched: documentation only
Estimated scope: Small
Task 1: Add the deployment environment contract
Description: Add the root deployment example and redaction-safe validation for the Qlockify-shaped root/backend/frontend environment layout. Backend and frontend examples remain owned by their repositories and are consumed without duplication.
Acceptance criteria:
- The root example contains only deployment-owned safe defaults/blank placeholders; every service-owned variable has one documented owner.
- Real
.envfiles stay ignored, mode0600, excluded from backup, and absent from rendered/logged output. - Validation rejects missing, unknown, malformed, or client-exposed secret variables for the selected operation.
Verification: Placeholder render, negative validation matrix, Git-ignore/permission checks, and staged secret scan.
Dependencies: Task 0 plus explicit implementation authorization
Files likely touched: .env.example, validation helper/test, documentation; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 2: Add PostgreSQL and Redis Compose foundation
Description: Define pinned private data services, health checks, named volumes, authentication, resource limits, bounded logs, and Redis AOF behavior.
Acceptance criteria:
- PostgreSQL and Redis become healthy using the approved pins and memory limits.
- Neither publishes a host port; only approved services can join the private data network.
- Redis uses AOF
everysec,noeviction, 192-MB maxmemory, and remains excluded from backup.
Verification: Compose validation, health/port/network/volume/resource inspection, restart and Redis-loss tests.
Dependencies: Task 1
Files likely touched: compose.yaml, data config, focused validation/test files; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 3: Add backend runtime boundaries
Description: Wire API and worker services plus one-off migrate/import/admin profiles from the same recorded backend checkout/image lineage.
Acceptance criteria:
- API and worker use private networks, health/readiness, graceful shutdown, and approved resource limits.
- Migrate/import/admin are explicit one-off profiles and never run during ordinary startup.
- Worker uses pre-1.0 Asynq
v0.26.0with concurrency 16 globally and 4 per merchant.
Verification: Compose profile/startup/failure/shutdown tests and service command-contract review.
Dependencies: Task 2 and the backend-owned command contract
Files likely touched: compose.yaml, backend image definition, lifecycle tests/docs; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 4: Add frontend production build
Description: Build and serve the direct frontend checkout using its ordinary static context and same-origin API configuration.
Acceptance criteria:
- Build consumes frontend commit
64f5ac2or later and its tracked font/license normally. - Static sentinel, SPA fallback, and emitted font resource/content type pass.
- Deployment Git contains no font/license copy, fetch, credentials, or alternate asset path.
Verification: Production build/static-server checks plus repository-policy scan.
Dependencies: Task 1 and the frontend-owned build contract
Files likely touched: frontend image definition, compose.yaml, focused health/tests; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Checkpoint A: Runtime foundation
- Tasks 1–4 pass from clean nested checkouts with placeholder test values.
- Normal startup cannot invoke migration/import/admin.
- No secrets, runtime state, raw data, or duplicated font assets are tracked.
Task 5: Adapt Qlockify Nginx routing
Description: Adapt the Qlockify template/entrypoint for the single canonical domain, default-host rejection, frontend/API routing, security headers, health, caching, and SSE.
Acceptance criteria:
- Only ports 80/443 publish; HTTP redirects exactly to
zarinpal.amiirkhl.ir; unknown hosts reject. - API and frontend routing/fallback do not overlap and public readiness remains generic.
- Exact SSE route preserves auth/event ids and streams heartbeats without buffering, cache, compression, or premature timeout.
Verification: nginx -t, route/header/default-host tests, static/font test, and streamed SSE fixture.
Dependencies: Tasks 3–4
Files likely touched: Nginx template, image/entrypoint, focused tests; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 6: Adapt Qlockify Certbot lifecycle
Description: Adapt Qlockify's HTTP-01 bootstrap, pinned Certbot service, certificate watcher, renewal, and Nginx reload for the single domain.
Acceptance criteria:
- Missing production certificate uses only the bounded bootstrap certificate path until issuance.
- Staging issuance, production issuance, renewal, and validated Nginx reload pass.
- No alternate domain, local production certificate mode, private key, or ACME state enters Git.
Verification: Compose/entrypoint tests, staging ACME drill, certificate name/expiry/protocol inspection.
Dependencies: Task 5
Files likely touched: Certbot entrypoint/config, compose.yaml, focused tests/docs; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 7: Add guarded first-start orchestration
Description: Add the explicit first-server path that starts data services, migrates, imports/reconciles the pinned CSV, and activates public services only after success.
Acceptance criteria:
- Input is exact/read-only and migration/import/reconciliation failures prevent public activation.
- A completed identical import is a safe no-op; recovery never guesses a partial CSV position.
- Ordinary deploy/start/reboot paths never invoke first-start, importer, or admin jobs.
Verification: Success, checksum/schema/count, interruption/recovery, idempotency, and ordinary-start negative tests.
Dependencies: Tasks 2–6 and approved backend importer commands
Files likely touched: scripts/first-start.sh, Compose profile, focused tests/docs; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Checkpoint B: Edge and first-start
- Nginx/TLS/static/API/SSE checks pass.
- First-start is fail-closed and ordinary startup never imports.
- Only Nginx is externally reachable.
Task 8: Add release records and operation lock
Description: Define ignored current/previous/timestamped release records and one exclusive lock shared by deploy, rollback, restore, migration, and import as required.
Acceptance criteria:
- Record captures three SHAs, local image ids, migration, backup, operator, health, outcome, and previous release without secrets.
- Invalid/incomplete records cannot become active and current/previous updates are atomic.
- Conflicting operations fail safely without stale-lock ambiguity.
Verification: Schema/parser tests, invalid-record matrix, lock contention/stale-owner tests, and redaction scan.
Dependencies: Task 1
Files likely touched: release schema/helper/tests/docs; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 9: Adapt Qlockify manual deployment
Description: Adapt Qlockify's deploy structure to verify three manually pulled repositories, build/migrate/replace services, observe health, and activate one coherent release.
Acceptance criteria:
- Script performs no Git fetch/pull/reset and rejects wrong path/remote/branch/SHA/dirty state.
- Build, migration, readiness, font, worker, or SSE failure leaves the active release unchanged and records evidence.
- Successful deployment records all three SHAs and passes a 15-minute postflight observation before activation.
Verification: ShellCheck, disposable Git fixtures, Compose mocks/integration, and induced failure matrix.
Dependencies: Tasks 5–8
Files likely touched: scripts/deploy.sh, release helper, focused tests/runbook; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 10: Add three-hash rollback
Description: Select the previous release record, verify its three revisions, rebuild, and run the normal postflight without automatic database down-migration.
Acceptance criteria:
- Exact previous hashes and clean repository guards precede checkout/build.
- Migration incompatibility stops rollback with the current stack preserved.
- Normal application rollback completes within 15 minutes and is recorded as a new event.
Verification: Git fixture tests, incompatible-migration negative test, and timed rollback drill.
Dependencies: Task 9
Files likely touched: rollback script/helper/tests/runbook; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Checkpoint C: Release safety
- Dirty/diverged/manual-pull/build/migration/readiness failures preserve the active stack.
- Active and previous releases map to exact three-repository revisions.
- Timed rollback meets its target without a down migration.
Task 11: Adapt Qlockify PostgreSQL backup
Description: Retain Qlockify's matching-client plain-SQL dump flow while packaging only PostgreSQL plus a non-secret release/migration/checksum manifest.
Acceptance criteria:
- Dump nonzero exit, empty output, invalid header, or checksum failure prevents package success.
- Package contains only plain SQL and the approved non-secret manifest/checksums.
.env, secrets, Redis, TLS, CSV, credentials, logs, monitoring, font/license, and media are absent.
Verification: Fixture database dump, package listing/header/checksum checks, and forbidden-content scan.
Dependencies: Tasks 2, 8
Files likely touched: scripts/backup.sh, manifest helper/tests/runbook; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 12: Adapt encrypted ParsPack upload and retention
Description: Retain Qlockify's OpenSSL AES-256-CBC PBKDF2-200k and rclone structure while keeping three encrypted local and seven encrypted remote verified backups.
Acceptance criteria:
- Upload uses a private temporary key and is finalized only after remote verification.
- Failed encryption/upload/verification preserves all previous copies and no plaintext backup remains durably.
- Retention removes only exact stale targets after new-copy verification and never deletes the last good copy.
Verification: Fake S3/ParsPack-compatible fixture, failure/retention matrix, checksum and plaintext-residue checks.
Dependencies: Task 11
Files likely touched: upload script, retention helper/tests/runbook; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 13: Add guarded local restore
Description: Restore an explicitly selected verified backup into a new empty target using psql -X --set ON_ERROR_STOP=on and independent production guards.
Acceptance criteria:
- Provenance/checksum/header/version/free-space/exact-empty-target checks precede mutation.
- Every missing production factor aborts before writers stop or a database is changed.
- Restore never changes
.env, Redis, TLS, CSV, credentials, logs, or frontend assets.
Verification: Disposable database restore, negative guard matrix, partial-SQL failure, and exclusion checks.
Dependencies: Task 11
Files likely touched: scripts/restore.sh, guard/helper/tests/runbook; maximum 5 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Task 14: Adapt encrypted S3 restore handoff
Description: Download an explicit encrypted object, verify/decrypt it in a restrictive temporary directory, and hand it to the guarded local restore.
Acceptance criteria:
- Production requires an explicit object id; an implicit
latestcannot select a production backup. - Remote identity/size/checksum and decrypted package checks pass before restore invocation.
- Temporary encrypted/plaintext material is removed only from the exact validated temporary directory.
Verification: Fake S3 object-selection/tamper tests, decryption failure tests, and guarded handoff rehearsal.
Dependencies: Tasks 12–13
Files likely touched: scripts/restore-from-s3.sh, focused tests/runbook; maximum 4 files
Estimated scope: Medium
Checkpoint D: Recovery
- Daily schedule/3-local/7-remote retention behaves safely.
- Forbidden content is absent from every backup package.
- Clean restore passes schema/count/tenant/login/cold-cache/worker/SSE validation within two hours.
Task 15: Bootstrap and accept the MVP server
Description: Execute the reviewed runbooks on the prepared Ubuntu server, fill runtime values, perform first-start, activate the release, and rehearse rollback/restore.
Acceptance criteria:
- Host access/firewall/swap/Docker/DNS/TLS and only-80/443 exposure checks pass.
- Migration/import/accounts/tenant isolation/worker/SSE/frontend font and manual health/log checks pass.
- Three-hash release, rollback, encrypted remote backup, and clean restore meet their time/recovery targets.
Verification: Signed non-secret bootstrap/MVP acceptance record.
Dependencies: Checkpoints A–D and a prepared server/runtime values
Files likely touched: ignored server evidence/release records only
Estimated scope: Operational session
Checkpoint E: MVP ready
- Every MVP acceptance criterion passes.
- Active/previous releases and backup/restore are proven.
- Stakeholder explicitly opens the observability phase.
Task 16: Add private Prometheus collection
Description: Add post-MVP application, worker/SSE, PostgreSQL/Redis, host/container, backup/restore, and TLS collection with bounded labels and retention.
Acceptance criteria:
- Required signals and target health pass within approved resource/retention limits.
- Prometheus/exporters are private and not routed by Nginx.
- Merchant/user/request/card identifiers are absent from metric labels.
Verification: Target/signal/cardinality/resource tests and sensitive-label scan.
Dependencies: Checkpoint E
Files likely touched: split into focused Prometheus/exporter slices of no more than 5 files
Estimated scope: Multiple Medium slices
Task 17: Add private Grafana dashboards and alerts
Description: Add post-MVP dashboards, release correlation, actionable symptom alerts, runbook links, and tested operator delivery.
Acceptance criteria:
- Service, worker/SSE, data, host, backup, and TLS dashboards answer the approved operator questions.
- Every page/ticket alert is actionable, bounded, linked to a runbook, and tested through an induced failure.
- Grafana remains private and contains no sensitive labels, logs, or embedded credentials.
Verification: Dashboard review, induced failure, alert test-fire, access and redaction checks.
Dependencies: Task 16
Files likely touched: split into focused dashboard/alert slices of no more than 5 files
Estimated scope: Multiple Medium slices
