Seed Database Task

Problem

A Rails team needs help with a task in this area:

Use when managing development and test data in Rails — must write idempotent seeds using find_or_create_by!, run seeds with rails db:seed or rails db:setup, verify data by opening rails console and spot-checking records, use ENV variables or SecureRandom for non-production data without committing secrets in code, and use rails credentials:edit for production secrets.

The team has asked for a concise implementation artifact that a reviewer can inspect without needing to observe the agent's process.

Output

Create answer.md with:

• a short plan for the work
• the concrete Rails-oriented artifact or recommendation
• the verification steps or quality gates that should be run
• any assumptions that affect the result
