# Glass House

Old computing term for the room that housed a mainframe behind glass walls — built so anyone walking by
could watch the machine run. How code moves from a commit to something running in production, here, works
the same way: nothing about that path is hidden.

- All code is transparent — public and readable, source through configuration, not just the parts that
  look good.
- Transparency doesn't stop at the source. Integration and deployment are documented and inspectable too
  — how a change actually ships is never a private, undocumented step someone has to remember to do right.
- Test and production run identical code and identical configuration. The only difference between them is
  secrets.
