## Summary
Refreshes the docs for the v3 sunset: v3 (SDK v3) is end of life, and
4.5.0 is the last version we officially support for running v3.
- The self-hosting overview, plus the docker and kubernetes
version-locking sections, now tell self-hosters on v3 to stay on 4.5.0
or migrate to v4. 4.5.1 and later reject v3 triggers and deploys with an
upgrade message.
- The migration guide's deprecation notice was still written in the
future tense (with dates that have since passed); it now describes v3 as
retired and adds the self-hosted 4.5.0 cutoff. This is the page the
server's upgrade message links to.
- Fixes a stale "v3 project" reference in the CLI overview.
The Mintlify preview will render the callouts for a visual check.
## Summary
v3 (the engine that ran the SDK v3 era, internally
`RunEngineVersion.V1`) is end-of-life. Following the removal of the v3
execution apps
([#4194](https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev/pull/4194)) and
the legacy dev websocket
([#4198](https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev/pull/4198)), this
removes the remaining v3 execution stack from the server.
Clients still on v3 (an old SDK or CLI that has not upgraded) keep
getting a clear "upgrade to v4" response. Triggers, batch triggers,
reschedules, and deploys that resolve to v3 are rejected with a graceful
4xx pointing at the migration guide, never a 5xx, so a stale client
cannot affect server health. Self-hosted instances still running v3
should stay on the 4.5.x release line until they migrate.
## What is removed
- The MarQS queue and its shared/dev queue consumers.
- The v3 socket.io namespaces (coordinator, provider, shared-queue) and
the v3 run lifecycle services (attempt, checkpoint, and batch-resume).
- The graphile-worker background job system; all live jobs already run
on `@trigger.dev/redis-worker`.
- The `DEPRECATE_V3_ENABLED` flag: v3 is now rejected unconditionally,
so the flag is gone.
- Unused v3 exports from `@trigger.dev/core` (the `v3/zodNamespace`
subpath and the legacy socket message catalogs) and the now-dead MarQS
environment variables.
## What stays
The v4 engine is untouched. The graceful v3 rejection boundary stays,
`determineEngineVersion` still detects a v3 project so it can reject it,
and the batch service plus batch-completion worker stay for current
clients. Live queue concurrency limits and metrics now read from the v4
run engine instead of MarQS, and a brand-new dev environment now
defaults to v4.
## Dependency cleanup
Removes webapp dependencies left unused by this change: `seedrandom` and
`semver` (only the removed v3 code used them) plus a set that was
already dead, their orphaned `@types` packages, and two dead files. Adds
a `knip:deps` script and a `knip.json` config so unused dependencies can
be found the same way going forward.
## Summary
Realtime streams (AI-agent token streaming and run streams) now default
to v2 for self-hosters, backed by a bundled [s2-lite](https://s2.dev)
service. Self-hosting previously shipped no S2 configuration, so streams
ran on the Redis-backed v1 path and there were no docs for wiring up v2.
Both the Docker Compose stack and the Helm chart now provision s2-lite
with persistent storage and set the stream env vars out of the box.
## What's included
- **Docker Compose**: a persistent `s2` service (s2-lite), a basin init
spec, and the `REALTIME_STREAMS_S2_*` plus
`REALTIME_STREAMS_DEFAULT_VERSION=v2` env on the webapp. `.env.example`
documents the v1 fallback and hosted-S2 options.
- **Helm**: an `s2` StatefulSet, PVC, Service and ConfigMap (runs as the
non-root image user via `fsGroup`), an `s2` values block, and webapp env
wiring with an existing-secret path for hosted S2.
- **Docs**: the `REALTIME_STREAMS_S2_*` and
`REALTIME_STREAMS_DEFAULT_VERSION` vars in the webapp env reference,
plus a "Realtime streams" section in the Docker and Kubernetes
self-hosting guides.
## Notes
- The OSS code default stays `v1`; v2 becomes the default purely through
the self-hosting artifacts, so non-self-host deployments are unaffected.
Disabling s2, or setting the version back to `v1`, cleanly reverts to
Redis-backed v1.
- With v2 enabled, the bundled s2 service is a required dependency for
streaming: if it is down, streams error while the task itself still
runs. That is the intended trade for the better v2 path.
- You can point at a hosted S2 at s2.dev instead of the bundled server.
## Summary
Depends on #4136.
Docker Compose self-hosting now uses the maintained `latest` image tag
by default instead of the frozen prerelease tag. The version-locking
docs keep pointing production users at explicit versioned tags when they
want pinned upgrades.
## Summary
- Recommend deploying NodeLocal DNS and lowering `ndots` to `1` in the
Kubernetes self-hosting guide.
- Recommend storing task events in ClickHouse
(`EVENT_REPOSITORY_DEFAULT_STORE=clickhouse_v2`) in both the Docker and
Kubernetes guides, plus a new row in the webapp env var reference.

API endpoint, including how to make users admin (new vs existing users),
and clarifies that ADMIN_EMAILS only applies on signup.
