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:

   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:

   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:

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/
