Deployment Status

As of 2026-04-17, the frontend is live on the shared VPS at https://wait-time.ca, https://www.wait-time.ca redirects to the canonical host, and the backend scheduler path remains on GitHub Actions. Live verification on 2026-04-17 showed /api/health returning healthy: true with the database connected, DB-backed routes such as /api/hospitals and /api/resources responding normally, and the hardened /api/status plus aggregate /api/data-quality summaries no longer exposing the legacy public source IDs manitoba-shared-health or on-health. See docs/planning/roadmap.md and docs/operations/incident-reports/2026-03-28-neon-transfer-quota.md.
