Description

We have a startup function which checks for deployments and checkboxes and starts tasks to poll these if necessary. When a RC deployment is finished doof will say that the checkboxes are ready to be checked. However Doof will not say this on startup. We need to make sure Doof says this after startup when a deployment completes, but to not say it if Doof is starting up and the deployment has already happened.

Research direction

Start by reading the startup function and trace how it checks deployments and checkboxes and starts polling tasks. Compare this path with the existing announcement when an RC deployment finishes. Done means startup announces that checkboxes are ready only when the deployment completes during startup, not when it had already completed before Doof started.
