⚠️ Current Status: NON-FUNCTIONAL

The backend server has been deprovisioned and is offline.

The extension requires a SignalR hub at https://polyhydragames.azurewebsites.net/rollhub which no longer exists (DNS returns NXDOMAIN). The extension will load but cannot connect to the backend.

Options to Restore Functionality

1. Retire the extension (recommended if unused)
2. Rebuild the SignalR backend and host it on existing infrastructure

See backlog task roll20bridge-modernization-deliverable-01-azure-backend for full investigation details.
