Why

Tracked as REA-5597. Companion to REA-5594 — the same fix in reactor-team/docs's SDK reference pages. examples/happy-oyster/README.md had two prose mentions of "Coordinator," the internal backend-service name, with no meaning outside Reactor's own architecture.

What changed

Two prose sentences reworded to "Reactor Platform":

  • "...the SDK re-fetches it ... on every Coordinator call via the getJwt resolver."
  • "...skipping the Coordinator: no REACTOR_API_KEY, no JWT."

Left unchanged: the NEXT_PUBLIC_COORDINATOR_URL env var name (used in real app code across .env.example, route.ts, and components in both happy-oyster and lingbot-world-2) — renaming it needs matching code changes across both examples, out of scope for a terminology-only pass. lingbot-world-2/README.md only ever used the term via that same env var name, so nothing else to fix there.

Testing

Prose-only README change, no code touched.

… README

Two prose mentions named the backend service the SDK talks to before
its WebRTC connection opens - an internal component name with no
meaning outside Reactor's own architecture. The NEXT_PUBLIC_COORDINATOR_URL
env var name itself is left unchanged, since renaming it would need
matching changes across .env.example and the actual app code, not
just this README.

Same internal-terminology cleanup as the previous commit, extended to
the env var itself and the local COORDINATOR_URL const in
ho-client.tsx (renamed to REACTOR_API_URL), plus two more "Coordinator"
mentions in code comments this file had that the README-only pass
didn't touch. Purely a rename - no behavior change, same fallback to
https://api.reactor.inc in both examples.

A deployment of either example with the old env var name already set
falls back to that default silently after this change rather than
erroring, until the new name is set there and it's redeployed (Next.js
bakes NEXT_PUBLIC_* vars in at build time).
