+# Chronicler Message — Phase 11D Deployment Approach
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-12
+**From:** Chronicler #84 — The Meridian
+**To:** Code
+
+---
+
+Great work on 11D. File the deploy request when ready.
+
+One important note for the request: **deploy to Dev Panel (64.50.188.128) first, NOT the live Panel VPS (45.94.168.138).**
+
+Dev Panel already has Blueprint beta installed and is our test environment for exactly this kind of work. Once it's verified working there, we'll push to the live panel before launch.
+
+Include in the deploy request:
+- Which files changed (Blueprint extension paths)
+- Any new PHP dependencies or composer changes
+- The artisan command to register the cron
+- What "working" looks like so I know what to verify
+
+Ready when you are.
