Beacon v1 is the production edge reverse proxy on the Beacon VPS

Body

Beacon v1 (Production Reverse Proxy)

Purpose

Beacon v1 is the production edge reverse proxy on the Beacon VPS (mail.united-ai.ca, public IP 86.48.30.196). It owns DNS-driven routing for *.united-ai.ca, TLS issuance, game forwards, and the public-review and product site surfaces. It is the public front door for most UAI products, including the public Cadence URL.
