An approved revision becomes a Markdown file committed with a message naming it, so repository history is an approval record.
Oat reads and writes only what is listed here.
Oat reads.
- The branch and folder you chose
- Deployment status, when the host reports it
Oat writes.
- One commit per approved revision
The permission is narrow and yours to revoke.
Contents access to one repository, so Oat sees no other.
Connecting takes three steps.
- Install the Oat app on your repository.
- Pick the branch and folder Oat writes to.
- Add the Vercel hook if pushes skip deploys.
The decision stays yours.
A commit needs a revision approved for this destination, and Live confirmed waits until the page answers.
Creators ask this first.
- What if the deploy fails?
- The piece shows the failed deployment and its error, short of Live confirmed.
