What you own

  • • The branch, the pull request, and the tests that gate it
  • • The feature flag that decides who sees your change
  • • The telemetry your code emits while it runs

What the platform owns

  • • Build reproducibility and artifact signing
  • • Promotion between environments and rollout pacing
  • • Admission policy that rejects unsigned or stale images

Where the loop closes

  • • Telemetry feeds the deploy controller, not a dashboard alone
  • • A failing signal can revert a rollout without a new build
  • • Flags change exposure without touching the delivery plane
