# Environment Upgraded

> A brief description, use-case, and usage instructions of the Environment Upgraded feature

Chkk allows users to Mark a Cluster Upgrade Template as **Environment Upgraded**. This feature provides a clear way to indicate that every cluster in an environment (e.g., dev, staging, production) has been upgraded using a specific template. Each template corresponds to a "representative" cluster and can spawn multiple Upgrade Plans—one per cluster in that environment. Once those plans are carried out, marking the template as **Environment Upgraded** signals that all clusters are now running the recommended versions. This doesn't require each plan to be formally marked as **Completed**; rather, it serves as a high-level confirmation that the environment is fully upgraded. As a result, your team gains a concise view of upgrade status without needing to inspect individual clusters, helping prevent confusion about whether further actions are needed.
