It was never used. The repository lives on a self-hosted Gitea, which
Vercel's git integration cannot connect to at all — so the documented
route amounted to "mirror to GitHub first", and nobody did.
vercel.json is gone, and with it the branch in next.config.ts that
switched off `output: "standalone"` when the VERCEL variable was
present. That branch was the only functional trace; everything else was
documentation and comments describing a second deployment path that did
not exist.
DEPLOYMENT.md loses its "two supported ways" framing and the whole
Vercel section — about fifty lines. Several statements next to it were
stale for a different reason and are corrected in the same pass: the
outbound-firewall table still listed Supabase's pooler (the database is
a container now, nothing leaves the server), the prerequisites still
demanded an existing Supabase project, and the .env table still asked
for a pooler connection string instead of the two new passwords.
The nightly job is described as what it is — a container in
docker-compose.yml — rather than as a replacement for Vercel Cron.
Migrations keep their references: two comments from July mention Vercel
Cron, and they describe what was true when they were written.
