Engagement terms
1. Fixed quotes. Every engagement starts with a free scoping call and a written fixed fee. No hourly billing, no work without your explicit approval per item.
2. Audit-first. Read-only inspection comes before any change. You own the findings report either way.
3. Staging before production. No production change without a verified staging result and rehearsed rollback.
4. Secrets. I work with secret names, never values. Leaked live keys are rotated with you immediately.
5. Honesty. Remaining risks are listed, not hidden. No invented testimonials, metrics, or guarantees — only verifiable evidence.
