    - **Secret**: `your-username/your-space-name` (e.g., `AXRZCE/compi-final-dashboard`)

## Phase 4.D: Test Deployment

### Step 1: Trigger First Deploy
19. [ ] In your GitHub repo, make a small change (e.g., edit README.md)
20. [ ] Commit to `main` branch:
```bash
git add .
git commit -m "Initial deployment setup"
git push origin main
```

### Step 2: Monitor Deployment
21. [ ] Go to GitHub repo → Actions tab
22. [ ] Watch the "Deploy to HF Spaces (on main)" workflow
23. [ ] Verify it completes successfully (green checkmark)

### Step 3: Test Your Space
24. [ ] Go to your HF Space URL: `https://your-username-your-space.hf.space`
25. [ ] Wait for the app to build (first time takes 5-10 minutes)
26. [ ] Test basic functionality:
    - [ ] Enter a text prompt
    - [ ] Generate an image
    - [ ] Check that the interface loads properly

## Phase 4.E: Production Workflow

### For Future Updates
- [ ] Create feature branches for new development
- [ ] Test changes locally: `streamlit run src/ui/compi_phase3_final_dashboard.py`
- [ ] Open Pull Request to `main`
- [ ] Merge PR → Automatic deployment to HF Space

### Rollback Process
- [ ] If deployment breaks, revert the commit on `main`
- [ ] GitHub Actions will automatically redeploy the previous version

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues
- **Space won't start**: Check the build logs in HF Space → Logs
- **GitHub Action fails**: Check repo secrets are set correctly
- **App crashes**: Verify `app_file` path in Space README is correct
- **Missing dependencies**: Check `requirements.txt` and `packages.txt`
