READMESKILL.md - Remove Demo Limits
Remove the managed-template trial restrictions with the smallest coherent change. ## Goal Make the fork behave like a normal self-hosted deployment: - no trial session cap - no trial message cap - no hosted-only restriction errors - no hosted-demo delete restrictions - no dead helper code or stale tests ## Inspect first Read these files before editing: - `apps/web/lib/managed-template-trial.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/sessions/route.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/chat/route.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/sessions/[sessionId]/chats/[chatId]/messages/[messageId]/route.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/sessions/route.test.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/chat/route.test.ts` - `apps/web/app/api/sessions/[sessionId]/chats/[chatId]/messages/[messageId]/route.test.ts` Then search for these identifiers and strings to catch older or newer variants: - `isManagedTemplateTrialUser` - `MANAGED_TEMPLATE_TRIAL_` - `deploy-your-own` - `open-agents.dev` - `vercel.com` - `This hosted deployment includes` - `does not allow message deletion` ## Required changes 1. Remove the guards that block session creation, chat messages, or message deletion for managed-template users. 2. If the auth callback still blocks non-Vercel emails on hosted deployments, remove that restriction too. 3. Delete `apps/web/lib/managed-template-trial.ts` if it becomes unused; otherwise simplify it so no dead exports remain. 4. Remove or update tests that assert the hosted caps, delete restrictions, or hosted-only auth gating. 5. Do not add feature flags, env toggles, or new dependencies. Prefer deleting the restriction code outright. 6. Keep unrelated auth, session ownership, and sandbox behavior unchanged. ## Verification This repo uses Bun. After the edits: - run `bun run ci` - if a failure is pre-existing, say that clearly and separate it from your changes ## Output Report: - which restrictions were removed - which files changed - verification result
