fix(title): render app title at request time so APP_TITLE applies#41
Merged
Conversation
…lies The app title (APP_TITLE, default "gbrain") reverted to "gbrain" on every refresh even though APP_TITLE was set. Root cause: the title pages are server components read via loadConfig(), but Next statically prerendered them at BUILD time — and the Docker build stage has no Railway service vars, so the "gbrain" default got baked into the HTML; the runtime APP_TITLE was never read. Add `export const dynamic = "force-dynamic"` to the root layout so the routes render per-request (still SSR — dynamic, not static prerender), reading the runtime APP_TITLE. Future title changes need only a restart, no rebuild. Verified: `/` and `/[...path]` now build as ƒ (Dynamic); typecheck + vitest (74) + next build all green.

Bug: the app title reverted to
gbrainon every refresh despiteAPP_TITLE=CoreSpeed Librarybeing set on Railway.Root cause (not client-side, not gbrain):
appTitleis read server-side vialoadConfig()fromprocess.env.APP_TITLE. But the pages were statically prerendered at build time (SSG), and the Docker build stage has no Railway service vars → thegbraindefault got baked into the HTML. The runtimeAPP_TITLEwas never read.Fix:
export const dynamic = "force-dynamic"on the root layout → pages render per-request on the server (still SSR, just dynamic instead of static prerender), reading runtimeAPP_TITLE. Title changes now need only a restart, no rebuild.Verified:
/+/[...path]build as ƒ (Dynamic); typecheck + vitest 74 + next build green. One-line change to layout.tsx.
