HomeKeeper 1.0.1 — Reliable delivery and environment safeguards

Patch release that hardens CI, documents the Vercel two-project deployment and makes release environments explicit.

HomeKeeper 1.0.1 is a reliability release focused on safe, repeatable delivery.

Delivery safeguards

  • CI now validates the result of promotions to develop, test and main, supports merge queues and can be run manually.
  • The change-detection fallback no longer fails on a repository's first commit.
  • GitHub Actions use minimal repository permissions and immutable action revisions.
  • The Turborepo remote-cache token is available only on promotion branches; pull requests use the local cache fallback.

Billing test coverage

  • End-to-end billing tests now provide the Stripe price variables that the Edge Functions read, so checkout coverage uses the intended plans.

Deployment guidance

  • The Vercel guide now documents the separate homekeeper-app and homekeeper-web projects, branch previews and environment isolation.
  • The environment reference defines the promotion path and separates development, test and production service credentials.
