Environments
Use bsw_test_* while building. Switch to bsw_live_* for production customers. Hosted posts and votes are isolated per environment (test vs live).
| Prefix | Environment | Kind |
|---|---|---|
| bsw_test_pub_ | test | publishable |
| bsw_test_sec_ | test | secret |
| bsw_live_pub_ | live | publishable |
| bsw_live_sec_ | live | secret |
Entitlements
| Call | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Test keys | No paid Feedback entitlement |
| Live config fetch | BYO ($9.99) or Hosted ($19.99) |
| Live Hosted posts / votes | Hosted ($19.99) only |
| Local adapter | Free forever, does not call the Feedback API |
Feedback's ladder is not Importer's single $19.99 production tier. Publishing a board does not skip these live entitlement checks. Compare modes and pricing.
Workspace scope
Keys authenticate a workspace. Do not assume a separate physical database per environment unless you isolate it yourself. Mint and revoke keys in the dashboard, not via MCP.
