Greptile Summary

This PR removes 7 per-package .babelrc.js/.babelrc.cjs files that were previously used to extend the root babel.config.js for Jest. All affected packages (api-server, babel-config, gqlorm, graphql-server, realtime, router, web) have since migrated their test runners to Vitest, making these files dead configuration. The root babel.config.js remains in place and continues to serve build-time transpilation.

Key points:

• All 7 deleted files were single-line (or two-line) shims: module.exports = { extends: '../../babel.config.js' }
• Every affected package's test script now invokes vitest run, confirming Jest is no longer used in these packages
• The packages/babel-config/.babelrc.js even contained an explicit comment: "Even though this package is built without Babel, we need this file for Jest." — further confirming the files were Jest-only
• No build pipelines or runtime behaviour are affected; this is a pure dead-config cleanup

Confidence Score: 5/5

• This PR is safe to merge — it removes only unused Jest-era Babel config files from packages that have fully migrated to Vitest.
• All deleted files were identical one-liner shims whose sole purpose was Jest integration. Every affected package has already switched to Vitest, verified by their package.json test scripts. The root babel.config.js (which still handles builds) is untouched, and nx.json only references that root file. There is no risk of breaking tests, builds, or any other workflow.
• No files require special attention.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
packages/api-server/.babelrc.js	Deleted — was a one-liner extending the root babel.config.js for Jest; api-server now uses Vitest so this file was unused.
packages/babel-config/.babelrc.js	Deleted — contained an explicit comment that it was only needed for Jest; babel-config has migrated to Vitest.
packages/gqlorm/.babelrc.cjs	Deleted — CJS variant of the same Jest shim; gqlorm now uses Vitest.
packages/graphql-server/.babelrc.js	Deleted — unused Jest babel shim; graphql-server now uses Vitest.
packages/realtime/.babelrc.js	Deleted — unused Jest babel shim; realtime now uses Vitest.
packages/router/.babelrc.js	Deleted — unused Jest babel shim; router now uses Vitest (a jest.config.js is still present but the test script is vitest run).
packages/web/.babelrc.js	Deleted — unused Jest babel shim; web now uses Vitest.
