What does this agent skill do?
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.tsapps/web/app/api/sessions/route.tsapps/web/app/api/chat/route.tsapps/web/app/api/sessions/[sessionId]/chats/[chatId]/messages/[messageId]/route.tsapps/web/app/api/sessions/route.test.tsapps/web/app/api/chat/route.test.tsapps/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:
isManagedTemplateTrialUserMANAGED_TEMPLATE_TRIAL_deploy-your-ownopen-agents.devvercel.comThis hosted deployment includesdoes not allow message deletion
Required changes
- Remove the guards that block session creation, chat messages, or message deletion for managed-template users.
- If the auth callback still blocks non-Vercel emails on hosted deployments, remove that restriction too.
- Delete
apps/web/lib/managed-template-trial.tsif it becomes unused; otherwise simplify it so no dead exports remain. - Remove or update tests that assert the hosted caps, delete restrictions, or hosted-only auth gating.
- Do not add feature flags, env toggles, or new dependencies. Prefer deleting the restriction code outright.
- 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
