# Release Checklist

## Goal

Use this checklist before publishing every OfficeCom Sentinel release.

## Infrastructure Check

1. Confirm the internal PostgreSQL target is still correct in `infra/postgres-target.example.json` or its private production counterpart.
2. Confirm the n8n internal base URL is still correct.
3. Confirm the public client ingest URL still forwards to the intended internal service.
4. Confirm no internal PostgreSQL host or IP is embedded in client configuration, installer output, or public release artifacts.

## Build Check

1. Build `OCSentinelClient-win-x64.zip`.
2. Build `OCSentinelSetup.exe`.
3. Generate `version.json`.
4. Verify SHA-256 output matches the released ZIP.

## Publish Check

1. Upload the ZIP, SHA256 file, and setup EXE to the release.
2. Update `release/stable/version.json` so NinjaOne keeps a version-independent manifest URL.
3. If infrastructure changed, update the internal Postgres target record in the repo at the same time.
