 - Database migrations under `supabase/` are **not** run by the
   container — apply them with the Supabase CLI as described in the

+- Nothing inside the container is scheduled. If you use automation
+  Wait steps or flows, point an external scheduler at
+  `GET /api/automations/cron` and `GET /api/flows/cron` on this
+  deployment, sending the shared secret in the `x-cron-secret` header
+  (`AUTOMATION_CRON_SECRET`, see `.env.local.example`). Both return
+  503 until that variable is set.
