A public POC proves the product loop. A private MVP proves you can survive enterprise networking.

Those are different architectures. Do not fake the second by adding more env files.

Foundry webapps deploy as identity and egress, not as Node hostnames

Teams still celebrate when the container listens on the right port. For Foundry-backed agent webapps, that is the easy half. The hard half is who the app runs as, how OBO flows, and how egress reaches Foundry, Search, and storage without turning the VNet story into folklore.

Deploy the pattern as identity and networking first. Hostname and Node version are table stakes.
