The
deploy-productionjob was failing withcurl: (3) URL rejected: Malformed input to a URL functionbecauseRENDER_SITE_DEPLOY_HOOKandRENDER_API_DEPLOY_HOOKsecrets were not set in theproductionenvironment — GitHub silently substitutes""for unset secrets, passing an empty URL tocurl.Changes
::error::message pointing to the missing secret name, rather than a cryptic curl errorenv:block — avoids interpolating secret values directly into the shell command (security best practice; keeps values out of the expanded command string)
