+### Resource Limit Guidelines
+⚠️ **Memory limits must include baseline usage**
+- Measure baseline: `docker stats --no-stream`
+- Add 200MB+ headroom above baseline
+- Default: 600MB minimum (not 400MB)
+
+⚠️ **CPU monitoring in containers**
+- Containers see all host CPUs but have cgroup limits
+- 1437% CPU = ~90% of actual allocation
+- Use cgroup-aware monitoring: `/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/cpu.cfs_quota_us`
+
+### Pre-Deployment Checklist
+✅ Test with production data volumes (600+ files)
+✅ Verify STATE_FILE paths match between config and container
+✅ Check volume mounts are writable
+✅ Confirm memory/CPU limits are realistic
+✅ Test graceful shutdown handling

+
+### Pre-Release Testing Checklist
+✅ **Test with actual Claude JSONL files** - Real ~/.claude/projects/*.jsonl files
+✅ **Verify processing metrics** - files_processed, chunks_created must be > 0  
+✅ **Memory limits = baseline + headroom** - Measure actual usage first (typically 400MB base)
+✅ **Run tests to completion** - Don't mark as done without execution proof
+✅ **Handle production backlogs** - Test with 600+ file queues
+
+### Common Failure Patterns
+🚨 **State updates without progress** - high_water_mark changes but processed_files = 0
+🚨 **Memory limit blocking** - "Memory limit exceeded" on every file = limit too low
+🚨 **CPU misreporting** - 1437% CPU might be 90% of container limit
+🚨 **Wrong file format** - Testing with .json when production uses .jsonl

+## CRITICAL GUARDRAILS (from v2.5.17 crisis)
+
+### Testing Requirements
+- **ALWAYS test with real JSONL files** - Claude uses .jsonl, not .json
+- **Verify actual processing** - Check files_processed > 0, not just state updates
+- **Test memory limits with baseline** - System uses 400MB baseline, set limits accordingly
+- **Never mark tests complete without execution** - Run and verify output
+
+### Resource Management
+- **Default memory to 600MB minimum** - 400MB is too conservative
+- **Monitor baseline + headroom** - Measure actual usage before setting limits
+- **Use cgroup-aware CPU monitoring** - Docker shows all CPUs but has limits
+
+### Quality Gates
+- **Follow the workflow**: implementation → review → test → docs → release
+- **Use pre-releases for major changes** - Better to test than break production
+- **Document quantitative metrics** - "0 files processed" is clearer than "test failed"
+- **Rollback immediately on failure** - Don't push through broken releases
