 - `environments.staging`: `dryRun: true` and `testChannel` (a channel such as `#nathan-test`). In dry run everything Nathan would post, in any channel or DM, goes to the test channel instead.
 
 Staging's overlay can enable `pr_management` on its own (`environments.staging.features.pr_management.enabled: true`), so it can be tested while production stays off.
