Platform changelog

Domain pricing derived from cost

Retail prices are now generated from a wholesale snapshot with a 65% markup and a $2.50/year margin floor. A margin audit runs over the catalogue and fails the build if any TLD would sell below the floor. This caught a renewal price that was losing $20.01 per year.

Free-domain rules made explicit

A domain is free for year one only on qualifying annual hosting plans. The rule lives in one function, is enforced server-side, and cannot be requested by the client.

Provisioning pipeline

Registration now triggers a resumable, idempotent eight-step pipeline covering zones, delegation, certificates, sites and email. A stalled run is picked up by the sweep rather than requiring a human.

Onboarding checklist

A customer-facing checklist, separate from the internal pipeline, so internal retries never make the progress bar flicker.
