hybrid-cloud-outboxes

Guide for creating and maintaining outbox-based eventually consistent operations in Sentry. Most commonly used for cross-silo data replication, but applicable anywhere eventual consistency is needed — including single-silo deferred side effects, audit logging, and event fanout. Use when asked to "add outbox", "add outbox replication", "replicate model to control silo", "replicate model to cell", "add outbox category", "write outbox signal receiver", "debug stuck outboxes", "outbox not processing", "data not replicating", "test outbox", "migrate model to use outboxes", "backfill outbox data", "outbox coalescing", "ReplicatedCellModel", "ReplicatedControlModel", "OutboxCategory", "OutboxScope", or "outbox_runner". Covers model mixins, category registration, signal receivers, testing, backfill, and debugging workflows.
