remove-demo-limits

To remove demo limits from a fork, apply targeted changes to strip hosted deployment gates, authentication restrictions, and trial code paths without introducing new feature flags. This unlocks normal deployment functionality across the fork.

Hosted deployment gates are session, chat, and deployment guards that block non-hosted or non-Vercel usage in forked projects. They restrict usage by enforcing trial caps and preventing non-Vercel email authentication on hosted deployments.

Updating authentication gating involves modifying email validation logic to allow non-Vercel email addresses on hosted deployments. This lifts the artificial restrictions placed on forked versions of the Open Agents project.

Yes, you can clean up legacy trial code paths like managed-template trials without introducing new feature flags. This involves removing the guards and aligning tests directly with a fully open deployment configuration.

Removing demo caps requires aligning unit tests with the fully open deployment configuration. You must run the unit tests after removing the hosted-demo restrictions across all guarded paths to verify the cleanup.
