Are they defined at Railway or only in your .env file?

Have a look at this basic implementation. Probably is the best way to share your variables inside your app in railway. https://github.com/allen-n/nestjs-generic

It would not be best to include variables in the repo, that is very insecure, please only ever use service variables.
