Reliabilityno reliability event recorded
NotesThe corpus already records Strapi Cloud in dossier/storage/strapi-cloud.json as trial-only with the note that Starter is USD 35 a month and not free, so this is a confirmation with the mechanism and dates rather than a new claim. It is worth keeping in the dead-end list because the repository's seed data still carries a 50 GB free allowance that was read before the removal.
