# Deprecated Files - Safe to Delete

This file lists all deprecated files that can be safely deleted after verification.

## Files Marked for Deletion

### Docker Compose Files

#### `/core/docker-compose.yml.DEPRECATED`
- **Status**: DEPRECATED
- **Reason**: All services consolidated into main `/docker-compose.yml`
- **Replaced by**: `/docker-compose.yml` (relay service now has complete config)
- **Safe to delete**: Yes, after verifying main docker-compose works

### Environment Files

All original `.env` files have been consolidated. Backups exist in `.env-backups/` directory.

#### Previously Deleted (Already Done)
- ✅ `/core/.env` - Deleted (redundant with root .env)

### Experimental/Orphaned Files

#### `/core/env experiments/` (entire directory)
- **Status**: User will handle separately
- **Contains**: `.env`, `.env.local`, `.env.openai`
- **Action**: User to review and clean up

## Verification Steps Before Deleting

Before deleting the deprecated files, verify:

1. **Test main docker-compose.yml works:**
   ```bash
   cd /home/serversdown/project-lyra
   docker-compose down
   docker-compose up -d
   docker-compose ps  # All services should be running
   ```

2. **Verify relay service has correct config:**
   ```bash
   docker exec relay env | grep -E "LLM_|NEOMEM_|OPENAI"
   docker exec relay ls -la /app/sessions  # Sessions volume mounted
   ```

3. **Test relay functionality:**
   - Send a test message through relay
   - Verify memory storage works
   - Confirm LLM backend connections work

## Deletion Commands

After successful verification, run:

```bash
cd /home/serversdown/project-lyra

# Delete deprecated docker-compose file
rm core/docker-compose.yml.DEPRECATED

# Optionally clean up backup directory after confirming everything works
# (Keep backups for at least a few days/weeks)
# rm -rf .env-backups/
```

## Files to Keep

These files should **NOT** be deleted:

- ✅ `.env` (root) - Single source of truth
- ✅ `.env.example` (root) - Security template (commit to git)
- ✅ `cortex/.env` - Service-specific config
- ✅ `cortex/.env.example` - Security template (commit to git)
- ✅ `neomem/.env` - Service-specific config
- ✅ `neomem/.env.example` - Security template (commit to git)
- ✅ `intake/.env` - Service-specific config
- ✅ `intake/.env.example` - Security template (commit to git)
- ✅ `rag/.env.example` - Security template (commit to git)
- ✅ `docker-compose.yml` - Main orchestration file
- ✅ `ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES.md` - Documentation
- ✅ `.gitignore` - Git configuration

## Backup Information

All original `.env` files backed up to:
- Location: `/home/serversdown/project-lyra/.env-backups/`
- Timestamp: `20251126_025334`
- Files: 6 original .env files

Keep backups until you're confident the new setup is stable (recommended: 2-4 weeks).
