-## Scheduled Merges (Publishing at a Specific Time)
-
-If you want your PR to merge at a specific time (so it deploys on schedule), leave a PR comment with:
-
-```
-/schedule-merge YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM CT
-```
-
-Example:
-
-```
-/schedule-merge 2026-01-28 09:00 CT
-```
-
-To cancel a scheduled merge, comment:
-
-```
-/unschedule-merge
-```
-
-Notes:
-- Times are interpreted as Central Time (America/Chicago, including daylight saving time).
-- Merges are processed every 5 minutes, so the actual merge may occur up to 5 minutes after the scheduled time.
-- Only maintainers with write/maintain/admin permissions can schedule or cancel a merge.
-- Schedules must be within 30 days from the current date.
-- To reschedule, comment again with a new time; the latest schedule wins.
-- If the merge fails (checks/merge conflicts), the schedule is cleared and you can fix the PR and reschedule.

 ## Using Cards
 
 If you'd like to use a card, for [example](https://hackingthe.cloud/aws/post_exploitation/create_a_console_session_from_iam_credentials/) `Technique seen in the wild`, `Tools mentioned in this article`, etc, __please be aware that you would need a subscription for [Material for MKDocs](https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/reference/grids/#using-card-grids) for the cards to be properly displayed on your local machine__. Simply copy and paste the template from the options below and it will be properly rendered on the site (we have a subscription to Material for MKDocs).
