Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 81fda

The advertised self-hosted replay feature cannot work with the pinned Community Edition image, and the MinIO guidance may expose credentials and replay data over cleartext transport. Resolve both issues before merge.

18-18: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Remove the CE session replay configuration or use a CE-compatible release. The v5.4.1 API image runs npm run deploy:community, which builds apps/community; the replay storage and export services exist only under apps/cloud. Therefore, this API image cannot provide the replay backend required by the SESSION_REPLAY_* variables. Update both image tags only when a release explicitly includes CE replay support.

Comment thread README.md
SESSION_REPLAY_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE=false
```

Use the S3 API endpoint without the bucket name or an object path. For MinIO, use a reachable API endpoint such as `http://minio:9000`, region `us-east-1`, and `SESSION_REPLAY_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE=true`. For Cloudflare R2, use `https://YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID.r2.cloudflarestorage.com`, region `auto`, and path style `true`. For Hetzner, the region is inferred from its location endpoint when left blank.
