-**Optional Profiles:**

-| Profile | Services |
-|---------|----------|
-| `interface-receiver` | MeshCore device receiver (events to MQTT) |
-| `interface-sender` | MeshCore device sender (MQTT to device) |
-| `mock` | Mock device receiver (for testing without hardware) |
-| `migrate` | One-time database migration runner |
-| `seed` | One-time seed data import (also runs automatically on collector startup) |
+| Profile | Services | Use Case |
+|---------|----------|----------|
