Issue: Environment variable named YOUTUBE API (with space) breaks builds with "secret YOUTUBE not found" error during BuildKit stage.
Platform Problems:
- BuildKit cannot resolve secrets with spaces in variable names
- Railway UI three-dots menu unresponsive (cannot delete variables)
- No variable name validation (should reject spaces)
Failed Deployments:

Variable names with spaces aren't supported, and this isn't something we're planning to fix. BuildKit's secret resolution splits on whitespace, which is why the build fails with secret YOUTUBE not found.
Rename the variable to YOUTUBE_API (alphanumeric and underscores only) and the deploy will go through.
