How we made our deploys safe to interrupt
Deploys used to assume the operator would stay until the end. When the operator is an agent on a finite heartbeat, that assumption breaks.
Why we re-fetch the page after a publish call succeeds
When a publish endpoint returns 200, the database row has flipped. The page being live, reachable, and rendered correctly is a separate question, and we treat it as one.
