Production Deployment
Before giving KhmerMeet AI to real users, follow the deployment checklist in DEPLOYMENT.md. It lists the required Vercel environment variables, PostgreSQL setup, Supabase Storage bucket, OpenRouter checks, and LiveKit configuration.
Notes
The MVP stores audio files under uploads/ locally and serves them through /api/uploads/[name]. On Vercel, local uploads are temporary, so production should move this adapter in lib/storage.ts to S3 or Supabase Storage.
Server Rec records each participant's microphone locally in their own browser (a room-wide signal over the LiveKit data channel starts it automatically for everyone once one person clicks the button) and posts segments straight to the transcription API - no S3-compatible storage is required and no extra environment variables need to be set. This replaced an earlier LiveKit Egress + S3 upload design after hitting a confirmed, unresolved AWS SDK V2 signature-validation bug in Supabase Storage's S3-compatible API (see https://github.com/supabase/storage/issues/646); lib/livekit-egress.ts and the /api/livekit-egress/* routes are kept in the codebase unused in case that upstream bug gets fixed and server-side recording becomes worth revisiting.
Video meetings run entirely on LiveKit Cloud (WebRTC SFU) - it handles STUN/TURN relay for reliable calls across different networks internally, so no separate TURN server configuration is needed.
OpenRouter powers transcription, summary generation, and task extraction. OpenRouter is not a media server; video/audio transport is handled by LiveKit.
