Description

I'd like to have a button in the admin dashboard on staging that allows us to copy a project from production (but never to production). Then LF staging could be set up to point to LD staging, and we'd be able to test Send/Receive on real projects without risking contaminating the user's project on production with our test data.

Research direction

Start by locating the admin dashboard's project-copy entry point and the existing staging and production project operations. Define a one-way production-to-staging flow that cannot write to production, then verify that real projects support Send/Receive testing without changing their production data.
