**Author:** Adam Moussa · **Date:** 2026-06-29 (final topology added 2026-06-30) · **Status:** EXECUTED — managed cutover live; §§3–11 below are the original (now-historical) phased plan, **superseded by §1a for all current-state facts (URLs, project layout, env)**.
> **READ §1a FIRST.** The phased plan (§§2–11) and the Phase A/C spike notes capture how we got here and still hold for rationale, cost, and rollback. But the spike-era specifics they cite — the single `open-swe-dashboard` Vercel project, the `open-swe-dev-hosted-…`/`open-swe-v3-…` deployment URLs, the `ui/vercel.json` same-origin rewrite, the single GitHub App — are **stale**. §1a is the authoritative final topology and wins on every conflict.
Move the Open SWE deployment off the bespoke self-hosted AWS stack (stock `langgraph dev`, in-memory store, no durability — issue **#9**) onto the **managed runtime**:
- **Backend → LangGraph Cloud** (a.k.a. "LangSmith Deployment"): git-connected, auto-builds a revision on push, zero-downtime, revision rollback, durable Postgres-backed store/checkpointer.
1.**Dissolves the licensing blocker.** Self-hosted `langgraph up` on the LangSmith **Plus** key is "Self-Hosted Lite" (1M node-exec/yr cap, Elastic License 2.0, production legally ambiguous). Managed **IS** the licensed product with **no node cap** — runs billed flat at $0.005, nodes not charged.
2.**Deletes the entire durable-runtime build** (RDS/Redis/Docker/AMI) **and most of the bespoke AWS CD** (S3 release pipeline, SSM deploy docs, packer, CDK box/ALB stacks).
3.**It's the upstream-canonical deployment** and the repo is **already wired for it**: `ui/vercel.json` has the same-origin `/dashboard/api/*` rewrite; `langgraph.json` is cloud-format (6 graphs + `http.app`).
### Cost
≈ **$160/mo incremental** for one always-on prod deployment:
- The **$39/mo Plus seat is already paid** (not incremental)
- **Dev deployment is FREE** (1 included on Plus, preemptible)
A self-hosted `langgraph up` + RDS plan (already `/sh-plan-review`'d to APPROVE-after-revision this session) is the documented **FALLBACK** if managed is ever rejected (see §11).
This is the live managed deployment as of 2026-06-30. Where any later section disagrees (old URLs, a single Vercel project, a single GitHub App, the `ui/vercel.json` rewrite), **this section wins**.
Both deployments live in the **same LangSmith workspace**; the **same workspace API key authenticates both** (including the Store API — so per-deployment store writes use that one key with the per-deployment URL).
| **prod** | `https://open-swe-prod-d6c7bb63aaa651b6a1d92f9492b1d983.us.langgraph.app` | branch `main` (auto-deploys on push to `main`) |
> The dev deployment was **renamed `open-swe-dev`, deleted, and recreated** — which minted the **new URL hash** above. The spike-era `open-swe-v3-…` / `open-swe-dev-hosted-…` URLs are **dead/superseded**. Deleting + recreating a deployment is the one operation that changes the URL hash (otherwise stable across revisions) — when it happens, update **every** reference (Vercel env, GitHub App webhooks, OAuth callbacks, docs).
### UI — Vercel (ONE project, two environments)
**One** Vercel project `open-swe-prod` (team `sea-haven`, id `prj_OOh6yjXMp4ah3Ws3Y7XRQxjmMmQU`). The old separate `open-swe-dashboard` project was **DELETED**.
- **Proxy mechanism (current, after PR #76):** **Nitro `routeRules`** in `ui/vite.config.ts` read `process.env.LANGGRAPH_BACKEND_URL` and Nitro's Vercel preset compiles them into `.vercel/output/config.json` (Build Output API) at build time — a CDN-level proxy (not redirect, so the `osw_session` cookie stays first-party). PR #75's hand-rolled `ui/scripts/build-vercel-output.mjs` was the broken first attempt and is **gone** (`ui/scripts/` no longer exists). **Never** add a manual script that `rm`s `.vercel/output` — Nitro's Vercel preset auto-emits it.
### DNS — Route 53 zone `seahaven.com` (`Z06652411XKH89KTZD3XA`)
- **Promotion App** `seahaven-promotion` (actor `4170147`) is the sole non-admin fast-forward-push bypass on the `main` ruleset `18238334` — its FF-push of `dev → main` is what triggers the managed prod build.
### Env per deployment (set in LangGraph Cloud config + Vercel env — NOT Secrets Manager)
| Var | dev | prod |
|---|---|---|
| `LANGGRAPH_URL` | own (dev) deployment URL | own (prod) deployment URL |
`DASHBOARD_BASE_URL` / `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL`**must include `https://`** (see gotcha 3). Secret **values** are still sourced from `open-swe-{dev,prod}/*` Secrets Manager + SSM (the remaining source of truth) and set into the LangGraph Cloud + Vercel env stores — the accepted `secrets-and-config.md` deviation.
### Bedrock IAM (PR #74, still OPEN)
Two IAM users `open-swe-dev-bedrock` + `open-swe-prod-bedrock`, each attached to customer-managed policy `open-swe-bedrock-invoke` (least-privilege `bedrock:InvokeModel[WithResponseStream]` on the `us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8` inference-profile ARN + its 3 routed foundation-model ARNs in us-east-1/us-east-2/us-west-2). Default model `bedrock_converse:us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8` + 3 Fireworks models. Static access keys live only in the deployment env (dev key → dev, prod key → prod).
### User store — per-deployment
**Each** managed deployment has its **own** Store. The GitHub→email mapping `amoussa1229 → adam@seahavenind.com` (namespace `["user_mappings"]`, key = lowercased login, record `{github_login, work_email, status:"active", source, created_at, updated_at}`) was written to **both** the dev and prod stores directly. New users need a mapping **per-deployment** (write each store directly, or use the dashboard admin User-mappings UI — the `work_email` field was added by PR #65 fix #4).
### Operational gotchas (hard-won — carry these into any runbook)
1.**Per-deployment store → seed user mappings per-deployment.** A missing mapping makes `process_github_issue` silently early-return ("No email mapping … skipping"): the webhook returns 200/accepted but produces **no reaction and no run**. Seed dev **and** prod.
2.**Org-login gate uses the App *installation* token**, so the App must be org-installed with **Members:read**. OAuth working ≠ membership check working — they use **separate creds** (CLIENT_ID/SECRET for OAuth vs APP_ID/INSTALLATION_ID/PRIVATE_KEY for the install token). A mangled multi-line `GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY` breaks the install token (and thus the gate) while OAuth still works.
3.**`DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` must be `https://`** — an `http://` value makes GitHub reject the OAuth callback with "redirect_uri not associated."
4.**`osw_oauth_state` cookie is host-only** — start login on the **same host** as `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL`, or you get "oauth state mismatch."
5.**Webhooks go DIRECT to the langgraph URL** (`/webhooks/*`). Vercel only proxies `/dashboard/api/*`. The app is **same-origin only** (no CORS).
6.**On Vercel CI, Nitro's Vercel preset auto-emits `.vercel/output`** — drive the proxy via Nitro `routeRules` from `LANGGRAPH_BACKEND_URL`; never a manual script that `rm`s `.vercel/output`.
7.**Deleting + recreating a LangGraph deployment mints a NEW URL hash** (otherwise stable across revisions) — update every reference (Vercel env, webhooks, OAuth, docs).
**What changes shape:** runtime host (EC2 → managed PaaS), durability (in-memory → managed Postgres, one store **per deployment**), CD (bespoke S3/SSM/packer → git-connected auto-build), config home (Secrets Manager/SSM → Deployment+Vercel env), ingress topology (shared ALB + one App → two dev/prod-isolated GitHub Apps each hitting its own `*.langgraph.app` directly), UI proxy (`ui/vercel.json` rewrite → Nitro `routeRules`). **What stays:** the LangSmith sandbox plane, CI (lint/format/unit/Playwright), the app code itself, and Secrets Manager/SSM as the secret-**value** source of truth.
~~`https://open-swe-dev-hosted-e76c2b0e8a7955fe8ad3110a7a54e5d0.us.langgraph.app`~~ → final dev URL in §1a (`open-swe-dev-fb737aa…`; the deployment was later deleted + recreated)
- ✅ UI deployed to Vercel — team `sea-haven`, ~~project `open-swe-dashboard`, `https://open-swe-dashboard.vercel.app`~~ (DELETED); now the **single** project `open-swe-prod` with dev/prod environments (§1a); proxy is Nitro `routeRules`, not the `ui/vercel.json` rewrite.
- ✅ Managed serves the custom `http.app` (dashboard API + webhooks) — **no platform auth gate** in front of our routes (webhook returns 401 sig-enforced, so signatures still govern).
- ✅ Vercel same-origin rewrite → backend works.
- ✅ GitHub OAuth dashboard login end-to-end.
- ✅ **DURABILITY** — team-default model survived a revision redeploy (this is issue **#9**'s core acceptance goal, proven on managed).
**Remaining Phase A items (the GitHub `@openswe` run-trigger loop):**
- [ ] A1. Get an `@openswe` GitHub comment to dispatch a run end-to-end on dev. Blocked by the user-mapping + cache gotchas (see fixes #4 and #5 in §5).
- [ ] A2. Create the owner user-mapping in the managed Store (namespace `["user_mappings"]`, key = lowercased login `amoussa1229`, value `{github_login, work_email}`) — the Admin UI can't set `work_email` yet (fix #4).
- [ ] A3. Verify a freshly-added mapping is seen without a redeploy across managed's multi-replica autoscaling (fix #5).
- [ ] A4. Confirm `LANGGRAPH_URL` is set to the deployment URL on the dev deployment so `langgraph_client()` calls resolve (fix #1 — config now, code later).
### Phase B — Harden (the code fixes + env codification)
Land the 6 code fixes (§5), codify env/config, and resolve the Bedrock-auth decision **before** standing up prod.
- [ ] B1. Land code fixes #1–#6 (§5) as a PR into `dev` (or split into focused PRs). Re-run `make lint` + `make test`.
- [ ] B2. **Codify the env contract for managed.** Update `ui/vercel.json` rewrite to the *prod* deployment URL (Phase C) but keep dev pointing at dev. Add a documented LangGraph-Cloud env list to the repo (see §4) — NOT secrets, just the variable inventory + which are excluded.
- [ ] B3. **Resolve the Bedrock-auth decision** (§10 open decision): static AWS keys for a Bedrock-scoped IAM user in the deployment env, OR run the agent on Fireworks. This intersects the #62 model work.
- [x] B4. ~~Merge #62 first~~ — **DONE / N/A.**#62 (Bedrock + Fireworks) **IS** merged to `dev` and is what the dev deployment runs — verified on `origin/dev` (`options.py` → `DEFAULT_MODEL_ID = "bedrock_converse:us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8"`) and confirmed by the live deployment's `git_ref_sha: a4ed19ba…` (= the #62 merge commit). The contrary note came from a STALE local checkout; no merge action needed.
- [ ] B5. Audit ALL in-process caches for the single-process → multi-replica assumption (generalization of fix #5; see §5).
- [ ] B6. Measure + reduce custom-app import time (fix #6) so the deployment isn't flagged unhealthy / slow to scale.
### Phase C — Prod deployment
- [ ] C1. Create a **prod LangGraph Cloud deployment** tracking branch `main` (the durable autoscaled 1→10 tier, not the free Dev tier). Record its `*.langgraph.app` URL.
- [x] C2. ~~Create the **prod Vercel project/target** (or promote the existing `open-swe-dashboard` to production)~~ — **DONE differently:** one project `open-swe-prod` with a production env (`main`) + a custom `dev` env (`dev`), each with its own `LANGGRAPH_BACKEND_URL`. See §1a.
- [ ] C4. **Establish the prod approval gate** (§6): git-connected auto-deploy needs an explicit gate. Preserve the prod manual-approval that exists today (the GitHub `prod` Environment reviewer). Mechanism = protected `main` ruleset + the platform's "require manual promotion to production" if available (§10 open decision).
- [ ] C6. **Custom-domain decision** (§10): dashboard custom domain solved by Vercel; webhooks `hooks.seahaven.com` either re-point to `*.langgraph.app` directly or front via CNAME. Managed issues `*.langgraph.app` URLs ONLY (no documented custom-domain support on the backend).
### Phase D — Cutover + verify
- [ ] D1. Run the issue **#9 acceptance criteria on PROD**: durable store survives a revision redeploy; team defaults / user mappings persist; a paused/in-flight run survives a redeploy (the durability win self-host never had).
- [ ] D3. Dashboard prod smoke: GitHub OAuth login on the stable Vercel alias (fix #3); admin pages reachable for `CONFIGURED_ADMINS`.
- [ ] D4. Webhook sig-enforcement smoke: unsigned POST to each `/webhooks/*` returns 401; signed returns 200.
- [ ] D5. **Soak** for an agreed window (recommend 3–7 days) with the AWS prod stack still standing as the rollback target (§11) before any teardown.
### Phase E — AWS decommission (AFTER soak)
Only after managed prod is proven + soaked. See §7 for the precise retire-vs-keep list. Phased teardown:
- [ ] E1. Export the live ALB listener-rule / target-group config for `open-swe-prod` and `open-swe-dev` to JSON (the export is the rollback source — these rules were partly hand-built).
- [ ] E2. Disable the bespoke CD (build-artifacts / cd-infra workflows) so nothing re-deploys the EC2 boxes.
- [ ] E3. `cdk destroy OpenSweProdStack` then `OpenSweDevStack` (mind the **RETAIN** secret shells — they survive and hold the global `open-swe-<env>/*` names; force-delete only EMPTY shells once env is fully migrated; keep populated ones transitionally as the env source — §7).
- [ ] E4. Remove ALB rules/target groups, S3 assets buckets, SSM deploy docs, and the per-env CDK bootstrap qualifier `oswedev` (`CDKToolkit-oswedev`) — once nothing references them.
- [ ] F3. Update project memories `project_open_swe_migration.md` + `reference_open_swe_deployment.md` to mark the managed cutover and the AWS teardown.
| `DASHBOARD_BASE_URL` | the own dashboard origin, **with `https://`** (`https://openswe-dev.seahaven.com` / `https://openswe.seahaven.com`) | |
| `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` | same as above, **with `https://` scheme** | scheme required or OAuth `redirect_uri` is schemeless and GitHub rejects (fix #2) |
| `VITE_DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` | **empty** | same-origin mode; UI calls relative `/dashboard/api/*`, the Vercel Nitro proxy rewrites to backend |
| `LANGGRAPH_BACKEND_URL` | **Vercel env var**, per Vercel environment (dev env = dev URL, prod env = prod URL) | drives the Nitro `routeRules``/dashboard/api/*` proxy at build time (PR #76) — required on Vercel builds |
| `ALLOWED_GITHUB_ORGS` | `Sea-Haven-Industries` (prod) / `seahaven-open-swe-dev` (dev) | org-login gate; checked via the App **installation** token (gotcha 2) |
GitHub App dashboard OAuth callback = `<DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL>/dashboard/api/auth/callback` (the own dashboard origin — prod App on `openswe.seahaven.com`, dev App on `openswe-dev.seahaven.com`).
**UI proxy mechanism (final, PR #76):** the `/dashboard/api/*` proxy is **Nitro `routeRules`** in `ui/vite.config.ts` reading `process.env.LANGGRAPH_BACKEND_URL`, compiled by Nitro's Vercel preset into `.vercel/output/config.json`. This **supersedes** the spike-era `ui/vercel.json` same-origin rewrite and PR #75's hand-rolled `ui/scripts/build-vercel-output.mjs` (deleted). `ui/vercel.json` now only carries `framework:null` + `buildCommand: bun run build`.
**LangGraph Cloud Deployment config + Vercel env** — NOT AWS Secrets Manager. This **deviates from the Sea Haven `secrets-and-config.md` "Secrets Manager for all sensitive" handbook rule** — **Adam ACCEPTED this deviation** (managed has no instance role / no fetch-config boot hook; the platform's own secret store is the mechanism).
### Sourcing env from the existing AWS stack (transitional)
Pull from the existing `open-swe-dev` Secrets Manager + SSM via a documented CLI dump:
-`aws secretsmanager list-secrets --filters Key=name,Values=open-swe-dev/` then per-name `get-secret-value` — **NOT**`batch-get-secret-value` (its pagination silently drops values past page 1; this bit the box twice — see memory).
| Eval-only | `JUDGE_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` (kept on AWS for `evals/reviewer/judge.py`, not needed in the runtime deployment) |
### KEY mappings on managed
-`LANGSMITH_API_KEY` = the **`LANGSMITH_API_KEY_PROD`** value (and `LANGCHAIN_API_KEY` = same).
- The full secret inventory is `SECRET_VARS` in `infra/lib/constructs/config-store.ts:46` (28 shells) — use it as the checklist of what to carry, minus the EXCLUDE rows above.
✅ **#62 is merged to `dev` and deployed** — verified on `origin/dev` (`options.py` → `bedrock_converse` default) and the live deployment `git_ref_sha a4ed19ba`. (The pre-#62 values appear only on a stale LOCAL checkout — ignore.)
**Bedrock on managed has NO EC2 instance role** (the #62 IAM design used the EC2 instance role as the Bedrock principal — that breaks on managed). Options (OPEN DECISION, §10):
- (a) Static `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` / `AWS_REGION` for a **Bedrock-scoped IAM user** in the deployment env, or
- (b) Run the agent on **Fireworks** and avoid Bedrock entirely on managed.
### Bedrock IAM users (CREATED — resolves §10.1, discharges the §9 IAM gates)
Option (a) was chosen and executed live (2026-06-30, account **328440206208** / **us-east-1**). This is **click-ops IAM** — there is no remaining open-swe AWS IaC after the decommission (#64), so these are created with the CLI, not CDK.
- **Customer-managed policy `open-swe-bedrock-invoke`** (`arn:aws:iam::328440206208:policy/open-swe-bedrock-invoke`). Least-privilege: actions `bedrock:InvokeModel` + `bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream`**only**, scoped to exactly the `us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8` inference-profile ARN + its **three** routed foundation-model ARNs (us-east-1, us-east-2, us-west-2). **No wildcards, no other models.** (Supersedes the §10.1 plan to reuse the #62 instance-role policy — a fresh standalone policy was minted instead.)
- **Two IAM users**, each attached to that policy: **`open-swe-dev-bedrock`** and **`open-swe-prod-bedrock`**. Tagged `project=open-swe`, `managed-by=cli-migration`, `purpose=bedrock-invoke`.
- **Static access keys are minted separately by the owner** (`aws iam create-access-key`) — secret keys live **only** in the deployment env stores, never in this repo or memory. dev key → dev env; prod key → LangGraph Cloud prod config (`AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` / `AWS_REGION=us-east-1`).
- **Deviation rationale:** static long-lived keys are a deliberate departure from the Sea Haven OIDC norm because **managed LangGraph Cloud cannot assume an AWS role**. Mitigated by the tight least-privilege policy above.
- ✅ **Both mandatory gates ran and PASSED:**
- **GPT-4.1 IAM cross-review** (confirmed hit `gpt-4.1-2025-04-14`) — least-privilege confirmed.
- **`/sh-security-review`** — **0 critical/high**; two **accepted mediums** (the static-key deviation + no per-principal budget cap).
- **Recommended follow-ups:** shortest viable key-rotation cadence with recorded creation dates; an AWS Budgets / CloudWatch anomaly alarm on per-principal Bedrock `InvokeModel` volume; confirm CloudTrail captures these users.
These are self-host → managed assumption breaks discovered on the spike. Each gets a config workaround now and a code fix to land in Phase B.
### Fix #1 — `langgraph_url()` localhost fallback
**File:** `agent/utils/thread_ops.py:38-41`
```python
def langgraph_url() -> str:
return os.environ.get("LANGGRAPH_URL") or os.environ.get(
"LANGGRAPH_URL_PROD", "http://localhost:2024"
)
```
On managed, every `langgraph_client()` call (thread sidebar, run creation, the same pattern in `agent/dashboard/user_mappings.py:43``get_client()` with no URL) `ConnectError`s unless `LANGGRAPH_URL` is set to the deployment URL.
- **Config fix (now):** set `LANGGRAPH_URL` = the deployment URL on every deployment (Phase A4 / C3).
- **Code fix (Phase B):** default to the in-process / deployment URL rather than `http://localhost:2024` when running inside a managed deployment (e.g. honor the platform's own URL env, or fail loud instead of silently hitting localhost).
### Fix #2 — OAuth `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` must include scheme
**Where:** OAuth redirect construction (dashboard `oauth.py` / `routes.py`), driven by `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL`.
A schemeless value yields a schemeless `redirect_uri` → GitHub rejects with "redirect_uri not associated."
- **Fix:** always set `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL`**with `https://`** (Phase C3). Code hardening (Phase B): assert/normalize a scheme at startup and fail loud if missing.
### Fix #3 — OAuth state cookie is host-only
**Cookie:** `osw_oauth_state` (host-only). Login must START on the SAME host as `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` — the **stable Vercel alias**, never the immutable per-deploy URL — or you get "oauth state mismatch."
- **Fix:** pin `DASHBOARD_API_BASE_URL` + the login entry point to the stable alias / custom domain (Phase C3, D3). Document this so a future per-deploy preview URL isn't used for login.
**Files:** the Admin → User mappings UI (`ui/`) + `agent/dashboard/user_mappings.py` (`upsert_mapping` at line 257 takes `work_email` but the UI form doesn't expose it).
Mappings can't be fully created from the dashboard → must write the Store directly: namespace `["user_mappings"]`, key = **lowercased login**, value `{github_login, work_email}` (matching `_index_record` at `user_mappings.py:73-84`, which keys `_by_login` on `login.lower()`).
- **Fix (Phase B):** add the `work_email` field to the Admin mappings form so mappings are fully creatable from the UI.
**Files:** `agent/webhooks/github.py` (GitHub handlers: `process_github_pr_comment`, `process_github_issue`) vs `agent/webhooks/slack.py` (`process_slack_mention`). (Pre-modular-refactor these all lived in `agent/webapp.py`.)
The GitHub path historically did **not** — it called `email = await email_for_login(github_login)` cold. The cache (`user_mappings.py``_ensure_cache_loaded`) is **one-shot per process** (`_cache_loaded` flag). On self-host single-process this was fine; on managed's **multi-replica autoscaling**, a freshly-added mapping isn't seen by a replica whose cache loaded earlier — until restart.
- **Fix (applied):** the GitHub issue and PR-comment handlers now call `webapp.refresh_user_mapping_cache()` before email resolution, mirroring the Slack path.
- **Generalize (Phase B5):** audit ALL in-process caches for the single-process → multi-replica assumption — `SANDBOX_BACKENDS` dict (`agent/utils/sandbox_state.py`), `_by_login`/`_by_email`/`_by_slack_id` (`user_mappings.py`). Sandbox affinity is already thread-keyed + persisted in thread metadata (`sandbox_id`), so it's the cache state that needs the multi-replica review. (The legacy in-process thread lock has been removed: webhook triggers now serialize through `dispatch_agent_run`'s `multitask_strategy="interrupt"` instead.)
- **Fix (Phase B6):** lazy imports / reduce import-time work in `agent/webapp.py` (+ `agent/webhooks/*.py`) and the graph factories. Profile with `FF_PROFILE_IMPORTS` (the import-profiling flag) to find the heavy modules.
-`fetch-config.sh` / `seed_store.sh` (boot-time config materialization + Store reseed)
### Replaced by git-connected PaaS
- **LangGraph Cloud** auto-builds a revision on push (first-party zero-downtime + revision rollback).
- **Vercel** builds / atomic-deploys / instant-rollback + per-PR previews (**net-new** capability the AWS stack never had).
### Stays
- **CI** (lint / format / unit / Playwright E2E) — still matters and still gates merges. `make lint`, `make test`.
### Gate re-homing
- The **dev → main promotion gate** (`check-dev-green.sh` + protected-`main` ruleset 18238334) **re-homes**: the **dev deployment tracks `dev`**, the **prod deployment tracks `main`**, so the gate governs exactly what reaches prod.
- Today's promotion machinery: `promote-dev-to-prod.yml` + the `seahaven-promotion` GitHub App (app_id 4170147, in ruleset 18238334 bypass_actors) FF-pushes `dev → main`. Under managed, a push to `main` is what triggers the prod build — so the promotion gate IS the prod deploy gate.
### Preserve the PROD manual-approval gate (LOAD-BEARING)
Today the `prod` GitHub Environment (required reviewer `amoussa1229`) is the manual approval. Git-connected auto-deploy removes the CD job that consulted that Environment, so the approval must be re-established explicitly:
- **Mechanism options (OPEN DECISION §10):** protected `main` (only the promotion App can FF-push, and that push is itself the gate) AND/OR the platform's "require manual promotion to production" if LangGraph Cloud exposes it.
- **Norm shift:** deploy-then-merge → **merge-to-deploy**. Lean on the dev deployment + Vercel previews to verify *before* promoting `dev → main`. (This inverts the Sea Haven handbook deploy-then-merge default — call it out in the README + handbook note.)
---
## 7. AWS Decommission — Retire vs Keep
### RETIRE (becomes vestigial once managed prod is live + soaked)
| **LangSmith sandbox setup** incl. `DEFAULT_SANDBOX_SNAPSHOT_ID` (`dc36e509-d4d2-4efc-8a4e-61f74f3446ec`) | the only sandbox with working in-sandbox git/gh auth (`_configure_github_proxy`); managed default `SANDBOX_TYPE=langsmith` uses it |
| **Secrets Manager `open-swe-{dev,prod}/*` values** | the **source you copy env FROM**, at least transitionally — do NOT force-delete populated shells until managed env is fully cut over and verified |
| **DNS** | repoint `openswe.seahaven.com` → Vercel; decide `hooks.seahaven.com` → `*.langgraph.app` or a CNAME (§10) |
| **`seahaven-promotion` App** + main/dev rulesets (18238334 / 18238542) | still govern `dev → main` promotion = the prod deploy gate |
**Phased teardown rule:** remove AWS infra ONLY after managed prod is proven + soaked (Phase D5). The exported ALB JSON (E1) is the rollback source for the hand-built listener rules.
| Dev deployment | **$0** (1 free on Plus, preemptible) |
| **Incremental total** | **≈ $160/mo** |
Compare to the retired AWS stack: 2× EC2 (t4g.large prod + t4g.medium/large dev), 2× S3 buckets, ALB share, NAT egress, plus the **never-built** RDS/Redis durable tier the self-host path would have added. Managed nets out roughly cost-neutral-to-cheaper while *adding* durability + previews. **TODO: confirm current AWS run-rate for an apples-to-apples delta** (not verified in repo).
- [ ]**`/sh-plan-review`** (GPT-4.1) on THIS plan **BEFORE prod cutover** (Phase C gate). Runs via `python3 ~/Documents/repositories/seahaven/security-review/cross_review.py "<task>"` (the orchestrator repo was archived 2026-07-14; the CLI has no router, so the old misroute workaround is obsolete).
- [ ]**`/sh-security-review`** on the sensitive surface: this migration touches **auth/webhook signature verification** (the custom `http.app` is now publicly reachable on `*.langgraph.app` with no platform gate in front) and **secrets handling** (secrets move from Secrets Manager to the Deployment/Vercel env). Required, not opt-in — resolve confirmed critical/high before cutover.
- [ ]**GPT-4.1 cross-family review** if the Bedrock-auth fix changes IAM (new Bedrock-scoped IAM user + policy = IAM change → mandatory cross-review).
- [ ]**Confluence** — rework "AWS Architecture Map" (**1540098**) + open-swe child page (**26116098**): replace the RDS/EC2/ALB subgraph with an external-services view (LangGraph Cloud + Vercel + retained GitHub App + LangSmith sandbox). Do it in the same conversation as the cutover, not as a follow-up.
1.**Bedrock auth on managed → STATIC AWS KEYS.** Create a **Bedrock-scoped IAM user**; set `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` / `AWS_REGION=us-east-1` in the deployment env; reuse the #62 instance-role Bedrock policy (`bedrock:InvokeModel[WithResponseStream]` on the `us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8` inference-profile ARN + per-region foundation-model ARNs in us-east-1/2 + us-west-2). Caveat: long-lived keys → rotation reminder + keep the policy tightly scoped. **New IAM user+policy = mandatory GPT-4.1 IAM cross-review + `/sh-security-review` before merge.**
2.**Webhook domain → RAW `*.langgraph.app`** (the "easier" path — no CNAME/DNS/TLS). Point GitHub/Slack/Linear webhook URLs straight at the deployment. Dashboard gets a **Vercel custom domain** (e.g. `openswe.seahaven.com`) since that's trivial on Vercel.
3.**Prod approval gate → GATED PROMOTE-TO-MAIN WORKFLOW.** Re-home `promote-dev-to-prod.yml`: gate the promote job on the **`prod` GitHub Environment reviewer (`amoussa1229`)**; on approval it FF-pushes `dev → main`; the push triggers the managed prod build. Preserves today's manual-approval semantics — approval is on the promote job, the merge to `main` is the deploy trigger.
4.**Cost/trace monitoring → YES, in LangSmith** (usage/trace budget + alert in the LangSmith workspace).
5.**Dev/prod home → CONFIRMED:** prod = LangChain managed (LangGraph Cloud) + Vercel UI; dev = managed **free** Dev tier (same runtime as prod).
The plan-review BLOCKed a literal single PR and recommended a 3-PR minimum (isolate cache fix #5 + the promotion-gate workflow). Adam chose a **2-PR split** — isolating the prod-deploy-gate change (highest risk to prod), bundling the rest:
- **PR1 — promotion-gate workflow + ruleset.** Re-home `promote-dev-to-prod.yml` to the gated promote-to-main (decision 3), and lock `main` so ONLY the promote App can push (BLOCK 3). Isolated because it changes *how prod deploys* — must be independently reviewable/revertible.
- **PR2 — the 6 code fixes (§5) + `ui/vercel.json` prod repoint + README/INSTALLATION.** (Accepted deviation from the reviewer's 3-PR rec: the multi-replica cache fix #5 stays bundled in PR2 rather than isolated — Adam's call.)
- **NOT in either PR (rollback safety):** AWS **infra-code deletion** (`deploy/ami`, `deploy/seahaven`, `infra/` self-host stack) + `cdk destroy` stay a **POST-SOAK cleanup (Phase E)**.
- **Not PR content (operational, sequenced around the merges):** LangGraph Cloud prod deployment + env, Vercel prod + custom domain, webhook/OAuth repoint, Bedrock IAM user, LangSmith budget, Confluence/memory.
- **BLOCK 1 (single PR)** → addressed via the **2-PR split** above (conscious deviation: cache fix #5 not isolated — Adam accepted).
- **BLOCK 2 (raw LangGraph API public?)** → **EMPIRICALLY RESOLVED.** Unauthenticated probes of the dev deployment returned **403 "Missing authentication headers"** for `/threads/search`, `/assistants/search`, `/store/items`; `/ok`=200, `/dashboard/api/me`=401. The platform gates the raw control-plane API. **Keep as a pre-prod gate (Phase D4):** re-probe the PROD deployment URL before cutover.
- **BLOCK 3 (prod gate enforcement)** → PR1 must **lock `main`** so only the promote App can push (verify ruleset 18238334: no direct-push path, PR-required, promote App is the sole FF bypass). Any non-gated push to `main` would auto-deploy prod.
- **BLOCK 4 (secrets posture)** → add to Phase B/E: **rotate** all secrets after migrating them to the platform env stores and BEFORE deleting from AWS; **document who can read/write** the LangGraph Cloud + Vercel env (access audit); delete AWS shells only post-cutover; no dual-homed/stale secrets; record in memory.
- **FIX (rollback integrity)** → Phase E checklist: "no IaC/DNS/config the rollback needs is altered in PR1/PR2 or during cutover."
- **FIX (gates resolved-before-merge)** → make explicit: do NOT merge PR1/PR2 until the GPT-4.1 IAM cross-review (Bedrock IAM user) + `/sh-security-review` (auth/webhook/secrets surface) are **resolved with no critical/high**; Confluence (1540098 + 26116098) + memory updated in the cutover conversation.
- **NITs/QUESTIONs** → carried into §8/§10 TODOs (cost delta, `FF_PROFILE_IMPORTS`, platform feature availability, key-rotation owner, env-store access logging, cache race-review under autoscaling, atomic webhook repoint).

## 11. Rollback Story
**Pre-cutover:** the self-host `langgraph up` + RDS plan (RDS+Redis+Docker; `/sh-plan-review`'d to APPROVE-after-revision this session) is the documented **fallback** if managed is rejected before cutover. Its durable design wins (env-scoped RDS physical names; `Credentials.fromGeneratedSecret({secretName:"open-swe-<env>/rds-credentials"})` under the existing instance-role secret prefix → no new IAM; DESTROY-on-rollback RDS-managed secret; derive `DATABASE_URI` in fetch-config) are captured in the project memory.
**Post-cutover (managed is live, AWS still standing during soak):** if managed prod fails, **rollback = repoint webhooks + DNS back** to the AWS stack:
-`openswe.seahaven.com` DNS → the `seahaven-com` ALB (restore from the E1 export)
-`ui/vercel.json` rewrite → the AWS dashboard origin (or stop using Vercel)
- Do NOT run Phase E teardown until the soak passes — the AWS stack IS the rollback target.
**Revision-level rollback (within managed):** LangGraph Cloud revision rollback (backend) + Vercel instant rollback (UI) cover bad deploys without leaving the platform.

## TODOs flagged (couldn't verify in repo)
- ~~#62 merge state~~ — RESOLVED: merged to `dev` + deployed (the draft read a stale local checkout; `origin/dev` and the deployment `git_ref_sha a4ed19ba` confirm Bedrock+Fireworks).
- **Current AWS run-rate** for the cost delta (§8) — not derivable from repo.
- **LangGraph Cloud custom-domain + "manual promotion to production" feature availability** (§10.2, §10.3) — platform features, verify in the LangGraph Cloud console/docs at execution time.
- **`FF_PROFILE_IMPORTS`** exact flag name/usage (§5 fix #6) — referenced from session context; confirm the flag exists in `agent/` before relying on it.
- Exact webhook path on `*.langgraph.app` (whether the custom `http.app` mounts at root so `/webhooks/github` is reachable as-is) — proven reachable on the dev spike; re-verify the exact path on prod.
