Weekly Operator Workflow

Purpose

This document defines the weekly public-safe review workflow for a deployed host or a serious QEMU validation baseline.

Main script

Use:

• scripts/ops/weekly-operator-review.ksh

Recommended weekly sequence

1. run the post-install checks
2. run the wider verify suite for the baseline phase range
3. review .work/runtime/rootfs/ if you changed core runtime inputs or templates, review .work/network-exposure/rootfs/ or .work/identity/ if you changed network or DNS identity inputs, and review .work/advanced/rootfs/ or .work/advanced/sbom/ if you changed optional advanced assets
4. review operations-related warnings before making new changes

Weekly command

./scripts/ops/weekly-operator-review.ksh

What the script focuses on

• post-install validation
• verify coverage across the recommended early baseline
• service status when running on OpenBSD
• a wider non-destructive review cadence before new maintenance work

Good times to run it

• before planned maintenance
• after package or base-system changes
• after changes to operator inputs
• after changes to runtime templates or phase scripts
