🔸 Hyperswitch gets you live. This toolkit keeps you alive. It's the production operations layer that open-source deployment guides never ship — built for engineers who take payments seriously.

🔸 One command to start. Run bash start.sh and a menu-driven CLI handles everything: security audits, CloudWatch alarms, Grafana dashboards, incident management, load testing, cost reporting.

🔸 Built around real incidents. Live log streaming with pattern detection, proactive anomaly detection before alarms fire, P0–P3 incident classification, and escalation playbooks with SNS routing.

🔸 PCI-DSS out of the box. Automated compliance checks mapped to PCI-DSS v4.0 controls — IAM, VPC, RDS encryption, CloudTrail, Secrets Manager. Run it before your auditor does.

🔸 Know your ceiling. Load test in four modes (ramp, steady, spike, soak), chaos test your fallback routing before a real connector outage, estimate costs by TPS before your CFO asks.
