 # Onboarding Checklist
 
 1. Run `bun install` so the repo uses its pinned `@rizom/ops` version.
-2. Fill in `pilot.yaml`.
-3. Add or edit `users/<handle>.yaml`.
-4. Add the user to a cohort in `cohorts/*.yaml`.
-5. Run `bunx brains-ops render <repo>`.
-6. Run `bunx brains-ops ssh-key:bootstrap <repo> --push-to gh`.
-7. Run `bunx brains-ops cert:bootstrap <repo> <handle> --push-to gh`.
-8. Run `bunx brains-ops secrets:push <repo> <handle>`.
-9. Run `bunx brains-ops onboard <repo> <handle>`.
-10. Verify the deployed rover core contract:
-    - `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/health` returns `200`
-    - unauthenticated `POST https://<handle>.rizom.ai/mcp` returns `401`
-11. For fleet upgrades, edit `pilot.yaml.brainVersion` and push once; CI rebuilds the shared image tag, refreshes generated user env files, and redeploys affected users.
-12. Hand the MCP connection details to the user.
-13. Send `docs/user-onboarding.md` to the user as the pilot handoff guide.
+2. Run `bunx brains-ops age-key:bootstrap <repo> --push-to gh`.
+3. Fill in `pilot.yaml`.
+   - keep your pinned `brainVersion`
+   - confirm shared selectors for `aiApiKey`, `gitSyncToken`, and `contentRepoAdminToken`
+   - use different tokens for `contentRepoAdminToken` and `gitSyncToken`: admin creates/checks content repos; sync is used by runtime directory-sync
+   - confirm `agePublicKey`
+4. Run `bunx brains-ops user:add <repo> <handle> --cohort <cohort>`.
+   - Web chat is the primary interface; it needs no per-user setup beyond the passkey.
+   - `user:add` currently writes `discord: enabled: true`; set it to `false` unless the user's cohort actually uses Discord.
+   - if the user should be an anchor on Discord, add `--anchor-id <discord-user-id>`.
+   - the command creates `users/<handle>.yaml`, `users/<handle>.secrets.yaml`, and the cohort membership without duplicating existing entries.
+5. Edit the generated user file if the anchor profile needs richer metadata.
+   - Set `setup.delivery: email` and `setup.email` so the user gets the passkey setup email — this is the default onboarding path.
+   - For ATProto publishing, add `atproto.identifier` to the user file; put only `atprotoAppPassword` in the per-user secrets file.
+   - Ensure `SETUP_EMAIL_API_KEY` and `SETUP_EMAIL_FROM` exist as GitHub Secrets before deploying any email-setup user.
+6. Run `bunx brains-ops render <repo>`.
+7. Run `bunx brains-ops ssh-key:bootstrap <repo> --push-to gh`.
+8. Run `bunx brains-ops cert:bootstrap <repo> --push-to gh`.
+9. Keep raw user secret material locally for now (`.env.local`, file-backed env vars, or equivalent local inputs), including `CONTENT_REPO_ADMIN_TOKEN` for operator onboarding.
+10. Run `bunx brains-ops secrets:encrypt <repo> <handle>`.
+11. Commit and push `users/<handle>.secrets.yaml.age`.
+12. Run `bunx brains-ops onboard <repo> <handle>`.
+13. Verify the deployed Rover contract:
+    - all presets:
+      - `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/health` returns `200`
+      - `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/chat` loads the web chat and accepts passkey sign-in
+      - `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/` loads the dashboard (or site surface on `default` preset)
+      - `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/cms` loads the CMS/login surface
+      - unauthenticated `POST https://<handle>.rizom.ai/mcp` returns the expected auth failure
+      - content repo exists and runtime sync is healthy
+      - background jobs are not repeatedly failing, except for expected missing optional integrations
+    - for `presetOverride: default` users:
+      - initial site build completes
+14. For fleet upgrades, edit `pilot.yaml.brainVersion` and push once; CI rebuilds the shared image tag, refreshes generated user env files, and redeploys affected users.
+15. Confirm the user received the setup email, registered their passkey, and can sign in to web chat at `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/chat`. That completes the default onboarding; everything below is per-cohort extras.
+16. Hand over the browser surfaces:
+    - Chat (primary): `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/chat`
+    - Dashboard: `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/`
+    - CMS: `https://<handle>.rizom.ai/cms`, plus GitHub token guidance if CMS editing is part of their cohort
+17. For Discord-enabled cohorts, hand the Discord setup details to the user as a secondary chat surface.
+18. If they need direct client access (MCP), use OAuth/passkey-capable clients where possible.
+19. If you are also giving them a content repo workflow, describe it as optional and frame git/Obsidian as an advanced file-based path, not the default.
+20. Send `docs/user-onboarding.md` to the user as the pilot handoff guide.
