# Project Starlight Mission Checklists

## Pre-Mission Checklists

### System Preparation
- [ ] Verify all detection models are trained and validated
- [ ] Confirm dataset integrity using `python3 diag.py`
- [ ] Test steganography scanner on sample images
- [ ] Validate network connectivity to blockchain nodes
- [ ] Check available storage space for mission data
- [ ] Backup critical configuration files

### Security Verification
- [ ] Run security audit on all detection tools
- [ ] Verify encryption keys for secure communications
- [ ] Test authentication mechanisms
- [ ] Validate sandbox isolation is working
- [ ] Confirm no sensitive data in logs
- [ ] Check firewall rules and access controls

### Equipment Check
- [ ] Verify computational resources meet minimum specs
- [ ] Test all input/output interfaces
- [ ] Confirm backup power systems operational
- [ ] Validate environmental controls
- [ ] Check network equipment status
- [ ] Test emergency shutdown procedures

## In-Mission Checklists

### Hourly Monitoring
- [ ] Monitor system resource utilization
- [ ] Check scanner performance metrics
- [ ] Review detection accuracy rates
- [ ] Validate data integrity checks
- [ ] Monitor network bandwidth usage
- [ ] Check for security alerts

### Daily Procedures
- [ ] Run full system diagnostic
- [ ] Update detection models if required
- [ ] Review and archive mission logs
- [ ] Check for software updates
- [ ] Validate backup integrity
- [ ] Report mission status to command

## Post-Mission Checklists

### Data Collection
- [ ] Archive all mission data securely
- [ ] Generate comprehensive mission report
- [ ] Document all anomalies and incidents
- [ ] Backup detection results and metrics
- [ ] Validate data checksums
- [ ] Transfer data to long-term storage

### System Shutdown
- [ ] Gracefully shutdown all detection services
- [ ] Clean temporary files and caches
- [ ] Secure all sensitive configurations
- [ ] Document system state at shutdown
- [ ] Generate post-mission system report
- [ ] Prepare system for next mission

## Emergency Procedures

### System Failure
- [ ] Activate backup systems immediately
- [ ] Document failure conditions and time
- [ ] Notify mission control of incident
- [ ] Attempt recovery using established procedures
- [ ] Log all recovery attempts
- [ ] Escalate if recovery fails within 30 minutes

### Security Incident
- [ ] Isolate affected systems immediately
- [ ] Document all suspicious activities
- [ ] Notify security team and mission control
- [ ] Preserve all forensic evidence
- [ ] Follow incident response protocol
- [ ] File detailed incident report
