Deploy the BYOA wake-receiver Vercel Function from `deployment/vercel/`. Reads `.env.byoa`, pushes the operator's required env to the Vercel project, deploys via `npx vercel`, health-checks the URL, logs the operator in, and registers the resulting alias as the ship's `source_url` via `ship_byoa_configure`. Picks up from `/byoa-link` (which claims the ship and writes `.env.byoa`). Usage `/byoa-deploy-vercel [env]` (env defaults to `prod`; `live` is an accepted synonym for `prod`).

Onboard a Gradient Bang operator to run a Bring-Your-Own-Agent (BYOA) — logs in with email/password, claims a corp ship as BYOA, generates a per-ship wake secret, and writes `.env.byoa` for the `uv run byoa` CLI. Usage `/byoa-link [env]` (env defaults to `prod`; `live` is an accepted synonym for `prod`).

Bump the project version (major/minor/patch), update CHANGELOG.md, and tag the release. Usage `/release <major|minor|patch>`.

Generate Gradient News & Observer assets (banners, front pages, prompt experiments) by dispatching to the right newspaper script. Usage `/newspaper <asset-type> [args]` where asset-type is `banner`, `front-page`, or `prompt-experiment`.

Generate a Gradient News & Observer newspaper front page for a time window. Pulls game events into a structured digest, writes ten illustrated story ledes (7 straight news + 2 gossip + 1 market box) into a markdown file, then renders a 2160x3840 newspaper front-page PNG. Usage `/news-front-page [duration]` (default `24h`; e.g. `1h`, `6h`, `7d`).

Create a new game character with optional custom ship, credits, onboarding skip, and bulk contract completion. Usage `/character-create [env] <name> <email> <password> [credits <N>] [ship <type>] [skip-onboarding] [complete-contracts]`.

Toggle the server-side login killswitch on a Supabase environment. Usage `/maintenance <env> <on|off>` (e.g. `/maintenance prod on`). Sets or unsets the `MAINTENANCE_MODE` secret on the login edge function, which short-circuits new logins with HTTP 503 when enabled. Existing sessions keep working.
