Technical systems manual

This manual covers the technical systems behind the shop’s app: running it, the database and its tests, backups, the automatic checks on GitHub, publishing, and the AI that reads vaccine paperwork. It is written for the person responsible for keeping them running. Groomers and managers do not need these procedures.

Each procedure is numbered and follows the same order: Purpose, Applies to, Before you begin, Procedure, Result, and If something goes wrong. Reference pages, such as SYS-01, explain how to use them instead.
