 "title": "Run a self-hosted AI agent platform with Docker Compose",
 "page_title": "How to run a self-hosted AI agent platform with Docker Compose with Apowerb",
 "summary": "Start the web interface, API and database on one machine with three commands.",
 "who": "An IT or operations person who needs a private, self-hosted place to build AI agents and does not want to set up a database by hand.",
 "problem": "Setting up an agent platform usually means wiring a database, secrets and services before anything works.",
 "outcome": "A running stack with the web interface on port 3000, the API on port 8000, and a PostgreSQL database included.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone the hosting repo: `git clone https://github.com/apowerb/apowerb-hosting.git && cd apowerb-hosting`",
  "Create the config file and random secrets: `cp .env.example .env && ./scripts/generate-secrets.sh`",
  "Start the stack: `docker compose -f docker-compose/docker-compose.yml --env-file .env up -d`",
  "Open http://localhost:3000 and add your model key in the interface, or set DEFAULT_LLM_MODEL and DEFAULT_LLM_API_KEY in .env."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the apowerb-hosting repo at https://github.com/apowerb/apowerb-hosting, start the Docker Compose stack on this machine and report the web interface URL. Verify that http://localhost:3000 loads and that the API answers on port 8000. The model list stays empty until a model key is added, so state whether one is set.",

 "lang": "python",
 "requirements": [
  "Docker and Docker Compose",
  "An API key from a supported model provider such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral, Gemini, Azure AI Foundry or OVHcloud, or any other LiteLLM provider",
  "Accounts for the business systems you want to connect, such as Gmail, Outlook, HubSpot, Pipedrive or Odoo"
