You can change the agency behind a working Payload website and keep the site. This guide sets out a handover checklist with an owner, the evidence and the output for each item, an illustrative first month, and the questions to ask on a first call.
Payload 4.0.0-beta.4 is the latest prerelease; Payload 3.92.0 is the latest stable release. What to inventory before upgrading, an impact matrix for changes that alter behaviour without an error, and what happened when we ran a fixture on beta.2.
We gave an AI assistant a Payload account that can save drafts and nothing else, put a reviewer and a separate publisher behind it, and rolled back a mistake that got past review. Every rule was tested over Payload's REST API. The runnable example, the test output and a recording are below.
A few weeks after we welcomed every crawler in robots.txt, we fetched the live file: Cloudflare was blocking the training bots at the edge. The audit that followed — discoverable, understandable, trustworthy, measurable — with the receipts, the failures, and the checks you can run on your own site.
Code review is becoming a delivery bottleneck. The answer is to default to AI review, route consequential changes to people, and make test validity part of the quality gate.
How typed CMS fields support an owned retrieval pipeline, what public AI search requires, and a worked example for checking versions, regions and source freshness.
Payload ships with access control but no roles. Here's how we built a role-based access control plugin for Payload 3: per-collection and per-field CRUD permissions, multi-tenant scoping, and a tree UI for authoring it all — enforced without rewriting a single collection's access function.
