Description

DEALBOT_DISABLE_CHAIN allows running Dealbot without chain integration. However, chain interaction is a core dependency for Dealbot’s functionality, and disabling it results in running none of the checks agains sp.

This flag does not appear to provide meaningful value and may introduce confusion or unintended usage.

Notes -

  • A broader refactor of app.config.ts is being considered separately (see #297)
