Gmail OAuth scopes come in three tiers — public, sensitive, and restricted — and the tier determines everything from certification cost to how Google presents your addon during installation. Here's how to read the classification and make the right choice.
Before building Pilotflow, I was warned that a Gmail addon with inbox access would cost $50,000–$75,000 in security certification. The real number turned out to be 99% cheaper. Here's what I found.
Google classifies Gmail OAuth scopes into three tiers, and which tier your add-on falls into determines whether you need a $1,800/year security certification. One word difference can change everything.

Five scenarios where an image generation API fails silently, charges incorrectly, or gets exploited — and the tests that caught each one before production.
My upstairs devices kept failing to connect to the second floor router. Here is how I diagnosed the real problem (a bridging misconfiguration) and applied three targeted fixes to get seamless roaming with OpenWrt.
The straightforward test cases almost never fail once the code is written. These five edge cases do — in production, at the worst moments. Here's what each one tests and why it matters.
