18-Point Pre-Deploy Security Checklist

A compact review record for the last security pass before production — covering secrets, authentication, data handling, dependencies, infrastructure, rollback, and sign-off.

Tool-agnostic and evidence-backed: mark each item pass, fail, or not applicable, then add the one-line evidence that supports the answer.

## Secrets and config

- [ ] No secret appears as a literal in code, config,
      logs, or CI workflow files.
- [ ] Production debug and verbose modes are disabled.
- [ ] Credentialed CORS uses an explicit origin allowlist.

## Authentication

- [ ] Every new mutating endpoint verifies ownership or
      permission server-side.
- [ ] Login, signup, and password-reset endpoints are
      rate-limited.

What you receive

File	Purpose
`PRE-DEPLOY-SECURITY-CHECKLIST.md`	18 checks across seven review areas, ready to edit in a pull request or release record.
`README.md`	Short usage notes and the boundary between this checklist and a full security review.
`LICENSE.md`	MIT license for personal and commercial adaptation.

What it covers

Secrets and configuration: full-tree scanning, ignored environment files, production modes, default credentials, and CORS.
Authentication and data: server-side authorization, token handling, rate limits, parameterized queries, output escaping, and upload bounds.
Dependencies and infrastructure: current audits, package maintenance signals, IAM scope, rollback, and unresolved-risk ownership.

Scope. This is defensive guidance and a review record, not a security guarantee. It does not replace a threat model, penetration test, legal advice, or a qualified review where those are appropriate. For reusable review agents, CI templates, and stack-specific addenda, see the full AI Coding Security Pack.
