Future Recommendations

Before Production Launch

1. Replace local SQLite persistence with managed PostgreSQL and production migrations.
2. Complete production identity-to-customer service wiring with retry and failure handling for invite redemption.
3. Finish gameplay features beyond the current invite, play, reconnect, and scoreboard slice.
4. Add scheduled archive-expiry workers and production key-management integration.
5. Complete authenticated iOS session management, invite-redemption UX, WebSocket gameplay, and chat receipt UX.
6. Add AWS infrastructure as code, hosted secrets management, TLS, backups, restore drills, monitoring dashboards, and alerting.
7. Complete Apple signing, App Store assets, privacy approvals, and final release packaging.

After Handover

• Convert operational expectations into owned runbooks with named operators.
• Add end-to-end integration coverage across registration, invite, gameplay, chat, and moderation.
• Formalize SLA/SLO targets once the support model is known.
• Remove or archive inactive legacy seed-domain code after confirming no migration or data-retention dependency remains.
