Hollyhock Installation Guide

Status: Release preparation guide. Release-specific instructions will be published with the verified package. No production deployment, package URL, or installation command is published here.

Before installation

1. 1. Review the system requirements, license, release notes, and open release gates.
2. 2. Establish agency and office responsibilities, roles, data-handling requirements, and a recovery contact.
3. 3. Prepare a controlled non-production environment and fictional test records.
4. 4. Confirm any external identity, email, messaging, payer, EVV, or other service requirements with the vendor before planning an integration.

Installation and validation

Use only the version-specific package instructions for the verified release. Validate agency and office separation, role access, enrollment, audit history, schedules, assigned caregiver work, family/client visibility, and recovery behavior before production use. Exact configuration and migration commands remain release-specific.

Field and mobile readiness

GPS/approach behavior requires the final physical field acceptance test. EVV-related features do not create a blanket compliance guarantee. Android publication, reviewer access, policy review, production deployment, external message delivery, and other release gates must be confirmed separately. iOS remains planned unless a later release notice says otherwise.

Accounting is deferred. External email/SMS delivery connectors remain incomplete or disabled unless a verified release notice states otherwise.
