Methodology

Critical items must be yes before the summary can read ready. Partial answers count as needs review. The tool never issues a badge or claims outage-proof status.

Work through the checklist, then copy the summary into your launch notes. Green on a checklist is not the same as calm during an outage.

Limitations

Not a certification or compliance attestation
Does not prove the page will stay current during a real incident
Custom process items may not appear in the list
