Console Deployment Guide

Audience: Stella Ops platform operators deploying the web Console. Purpose: Define the supported deployment paths for the Stella Ops Console and the operator checklist for releasing and verifying it.

Supported Scope

The Stella Ops Console is deployed as part of the non-Kubernetes Stella Ops stack. Supported deployment paths are:

• Docker Compose release profiles.
• Offline Kit release profiles.
• Signed release manifests and release evidence packs.

Kubernetes and Helm are not supported deployment targets. Historical chart, ingress, pod, and kubectl examples must not be used for active deployments.

Operator Checklist

1. Select the release manifest for the target channel.
2. Verify every Console image reference is digest-pinned.
3. Apply the Docker Compose or Offline Kit profile for the target environment.
4. Provide Console environment settings through the approved Compose environment file or host secret store.
5. Verify Console liveness/readiness through the service endpoint exposed by the supported profile.
6. Record release manifest digest, image digest, config hash, and health-check output in the release evidence pack.
