Recommended action: Remove the `site` block (and __STATIC_CONTENT/kv-asset-handler code) when moving to `assets`, or keep only `site`. Option: Keep only assets [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: See record scope. Steps: 1. Delete [site] from wrangler config 2. Configure assets.directory (and binding if needed) 3. wrangler deploy Expected: Command proceeds without the error. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
