POST /utils/markdown rendered a markdown string to HTML server-side. Its only frontend wrapper, getHTMLFromMarkdown in src/lib/apis/utils/index.ts, is dead: nothing imports or calls it, the route is hit by no other code path, and the path string appears nowhere else in the repo (no direct fetch, no test, no docs). Markdown is rendered client-side in the UI, so this endpoint was redundant.
Fully self-contained removal: the endpoint, its MarkdownForm model, the now-orphaned 'import markdown' in the utils router (used only here), and the dead getHTMLFromMarkdown wrapper. Nothing else depends on any of them.
