chore: remove unused BUG_REPORT_CHANNEL_ID and TICKET_CHANNEL_ID env vars

[DysektAI]

User description

Summary

Maintainability sweep finding: BUG_REPORT_CHANNEL_ID and TICKET_CHANNEL_ID were listed as required environment variables but were never read anywhere in the codebase. Operators were forced to configure values that did nothing, and startup would fail without them.

Changes

• src/config/env.js — removed both vars from requiredEnvVars
• test/env.test.js — removed both from the ensureEnvVars happy-path test
• .env.example — removed both example entries
• README.md — removed both from the env config docs

Verification

• npm test → 4/4 pass
• rg confirms zero remaining references to either variable (excluding node_modules)
• depcheck confirms no unused dependencies introduced

Risk

Low — behavior-preserving deletion of dead configuration only. No runtime code path referenced these variables. Existing deployments with the vars set are unaffected (extra env vars are simply ignored).

CodeAnt-AI Description

Stop requiring unused Discord channel settings

What Changed

• Removed BUG_REPORT_CHANNEL_ID and TICKET_CHANNEL_ID from the required startup settings, so the app no longer fails if they are missing
• Updated the setup docs and example environment file to show only the channel setting that is still used
• Removed the two unused values from the startup test

Impact

✅ Fewer startup failures
✅ Shorter setup for new installs
✅ Clearer environment configuration
