Provider Setup Gate
Provider Setup Console
Turn Auth/Database Evidence Into Operator Steps
This page explains exactly what must be created in Clerk, Render Postgres, and Render environment variables when the operator is ready. It does not create accounts, enter credentials, migrate live data, send notifications, enable live Stripe, or touch operator-held coordinates.
Exact Action At The Current Staging Gate
This panel turns the current provider packet state into the next exact operator action. It points to the one section and save control that matters right now. It still records names, labels, statuses, and safe notes only.
Safety Boundaries And Required Proof
Clerk Staging Setup Checklist
Use these steps only when creating the staging auth project. Save screenshots or notes that show project mode, callback labels, and enabled security features. Do not paste keys or user records into this app.
| Step | Operator Action | Allowed Evidence |
|---|
Render Postgres Staging Setup Checklist
Use these steps when creating a staging database. The acceptable evidence is provider name, region, database label, backup policy label, and migration status. Never export connection strings, passwords, or customer rows.
| Step | Operator Action | Allowed Evidence |
|---|
Hidden Variable Checklist
These names belong in Render environment variables or provider dashboards. This console shows names and handling rules only; values must remain hidden in Render and must not be copied into chat, source, exports, or prompts.
| Variable | Where To Enter It | Blocks Staging? | Evidence Rule |
|---|
Clerk And Render Postgres Names Before Values
This panel reads the generated Render environment entry packet for the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres staging path. It shows required variable names, source dashboards, value handling, and evidence rules only. Actual values must be entered only in Render hidden fields or provider dashboards and must not be copied into chat, source, exports, prompts, or screenshots.
| Variable | Source | Handling | Evidence Rule |
|---|
Names-Only Proof Before Auth Or Database Authority Changes
This receipt makes the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres path explicit, shows the current backend staging hold, and defines exactly which names-only fields may be exported. It does not prove live credentials, reveal provider values, migrate customers, enable database writes, send notifications, enable live Stripe, or touch coordinates.
| Receipt Field | Safe Value | Evidence Rule |
|---|
Names-Only Runtime Check Before Provider Smoke
This panel reads the backend runtime readiness receipt for the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres path. It shows required environment-name presence, blocked check IDs, and disabled/live flags only; it never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, notifications, Stripe live mode, or coordinates.
| Runtime Check | Status | Evidence |
|---|
What Clears The Auth/Database Runtime Hold
This packet translates the runtime readiness receipt into the exact hold-clearing proof needed after Clerk staging and Render Postgres staging are created. It shows environment names, setup receipt status, blocked check IDs, and safe next actions only; it never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, notification secrets, live Stripe material, or coordinates.
| Clearance Item | Status | Safe Evidence |
|---|
Operator Actions Versus Codex Actions
This panel turns the runtime readiness receipt into a plain handoff: what the operator must do in Clerk, Render Postgres, and Render environment settings; what Codex can safely verify next; and which locks remain in place. It shows names, statuses, counts, and safety locks only. It never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, notification credentials, live Stripe material, or coordinates.
| Owner | Next Action | Evidence Rule |
|---|
Backend-Verified Clerk And Render Postgres Connector Hold
This panel reads the backend staging connector status for the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres path. It shows required environment-name presence, connector hold IDs, authority locks, and safety boundary state only; it never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, notification secrets, Stripe live material, or coordinates.
| Connector Check | Status | Evidence |
|---|
Smoke Attempt Receipt Before Provider Authority
This panel reads the backend staging preflight receipt and says whether the first Clerk plus Render Postgres staging smoke is allowed to proceed. It shows required environment-name counts, hidden/plain config name lists, gate statuses, blockers, and safe next steps only; it never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, notification secrets, live Stripe material, or coordinates.
| Preflight Blocker | Area | Severity | Safe Detail |
|---|
Approval, Dry Run, Runbook, And Evidence Intake
This handoff mirrors the first staging smoke artifacts that must be reviewed before the Clerk plus Render Postgres smoke path is attempted. It keeps authority narrow: first staging smoke only, public-safe evidence only, no provider secrets, no database URLs, no customer records, no live Stripe, no notification sends, and no coordinates.
| Artifact | Status | Blockers | Next Safe Step |
|---|
Result Receipt After Operator-Approved Provider Smoke
This panel mirrors the latest first staging smoke result receipt after a Clerk plus Render Postgres smoke attempt. It shows check statuses, public-safe summaries, pass/fail counts, blockers, and next safe steps only. It never shows provider values, database URLs, customer records, payment card data, notification secrets, live Stripe material, raw coordinates, or vault material.
| Smoke Check | Status | Required Evidence | Public-Safe Summary |
|---|
Operator Confirmation Before Clerk And Render Postgres Setup
This panel loads the latest provider setup acceptance packet and shows whether the recommended Clerk plus Render Postgres staging path has been accepted for setup. It records checks, holds, and prompt-ready confirmation text only; it never includes provider values, database URLs, passwords, customer records, payment secrets, notification secrets, or coordinates.
| Check | Expected State | Required | Evidence Rule |
|---|
| Operator Confirmation Draft |
|---|
Clerk And Render Postgres Resource Names Before Secrets
This panel reads the backend resource-creation handoff for the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres path. It shows what the operator must create in provider dashboards, which Render environment names those resources will later populate, and what evidence is safe to save. It never shows keys, database URLs, passwords, customer records, notification secrets, Stripe live material, or coordinates.
| Resource | Provider | Env Names | Safe Evidence |
|---|
Public-Safe Proof Before Clerk And Render Postgres Authority
This panel reads the backend resource-evidence status for the selected Clerk plus Render Postgres path. It shows which provider resources still need public-safe evidence, which environment names remain missing, and what material must stay out of exports. It never shows provider values, database URLs, passwords, customer records, notification secrets, Stripe live material, or coordinates.
| Resource | Provider | Evidence Status | Allowed Evidence | Missing Env Names |
|---|
Redaction-First Proof Before Any Staging Authority Change
This checklist turns the Clerk and Render Postgres setup evidence into a redaction queue. Each item names the safe proof to collect, what must be hidden, and which hold it helps clear. It does not store credentials, database URLs, customer records, notification secrets, live Stripe material, or coordinate data.
| Evidence Item | Safe Proof | Must Be Hidden | Clears Hold |
|---|
Clerk And Render Postgres Staging Authority Handoff
This panel translates the backend transition contract into visible operator gates. It shows blocker IDs, setup controls, and staged handoff phases only; values stay hidden in Clerk, Render, and provider dashboards.
| Control | Clears | Authority | Evidence Rule |
|---|
| Phase | Status | What Stays Locked |
|---|
Read-Only Go/No-Go Before Provider Authority
This panel mirrors the latest auth/database staging authority decision packet inside the provider setup path. It shows the current authority, requested staging smoke authority, blocked gate IDs, and safe actions only. It does not enable Clerk reads, database reads or writes, migrations, live Stripe, notification sends, public launch, or coordinate access.
| Authority Gate | Status | Action | Blocked Evidence |
|---|
Fail-Closed Runtime Proof Before Real Provider Authority
This panel loads the live public-safe disabled adapter smoke API first, with the latest smoke artifact as fallback, and also checks the gate-controlled smoke API. It proves the auth/database adapter blocks provider lookups, session validation, account reads/writes, migrations, and restore operations while real staging providers are not enabled.
| Operation | Status | Provider Read | Database Write | Safety |
|---|
Operator Checklist For The Real Clerk And Render Postgres Session
Use this as the run sheet when provider accounts are opened. Each row names the owner, the safe evidence to save, and the blocker it clears. Values stay hidden in provider dashboards or Render environment fields; this tracker records labels and statuses only.
| Order | Owner | Task | Safe Evidence | Clears |
|---|
Checklist State For Clerk And Render Postgres Setup
Use this during the real provider setup session to record status without recording provider values. The state saved here is labels, statuses, notes, and evidence rules only; keys, database URLs, passwords, customer records, live Stripe changes, notification sends, and coordinates stay out of this app.
| Setup Item | Where | Status | Allowed Evidence | Notes |
|---|
What Must Be Complete Before Auth/Database Staging Unlocks
This panel turns the backend provider setup receipt into a plain clearance map. It shows which required public-safe rows are complete, which rows still block staging, and what stays locked. It never stores provider values, database URLs, passwords, customer records, live payment data, notification credentials, or coordinates.
| Required Row | Status | Clears Hold | Safe Evidence |
|---|
Provider Setup Steps Matched To Staging Switch Holds
This panel loads the public-safe staging switch plan and maps each later auth/database change to the provider setup evidence it needs. It is a planning and evidence tracker only; it does not enable provider reads, database reads, database writes, live Stripe, notification sends, or coordinate access.
| Switch Stage | Provider Setup Evidence | Current Blocker | Still Locked |
|---|
Exact Operator Sequence Before Provider Smoke
This is the public-safe bridge between planning and real provider work. It names the actions, the hold each action clears, and the evidence that can be reviewed without revealing credentials or customer data.
| Order | Action | Clears Hold | Evidence To Save |
|---|
What Can Be Saved Versus What Must Stay Hidden
How Provider Proof Becomes Approved
Why Real Provider Write/Read Is Still Blocked
Synthetic provider write/read smoke testing remains blocked until the provider project exists, hidden variables are entered in Render, evidence is reviewed, and staging-only safety has been confirmed. This prevents accidental live user writes, credential leakage, or customer data mutation.
