Linear: planning & defense

Contract strategy
Lock into an annual contract now to freeze the current Basic ($10) or Business ($16) pricing against recurring upward adjustments.
Architecture defense
Isolate issue tracking and project metadata behind internal repository abstraction layers to enable rapid migration to competing tools.

Netlify: planning & defense

Contract strategy
Stay month-to-month since Netlify frequently restructures plans and historically shifts between flat rates and per-seat pricing.
Architecture defense
Keep build configurations, routing rules, and environment variables portable using standard open-source static site generators to enable easy migration to rival hosts.
