 "title": "Deploy Open Bot as one image for a small team",
 "page_title": "How to deploy Open Bot as one image for a small team with Open Bot",
 "summary": "Run the published Docker image with your .env and an embedded database, then lock down sign-in before sharing it.",
 "who": "An IT or DevOps engineer who needs to host an internal AI assistant for colleagues on one machine without Kubernetes.",
 "problem": "Setting up separate app, API, browser, and database services by hand is slow, and the default single-user mode is unsafe for other people.",
 "outcome": "A running Open Bot container on port 3001 with its data in a named volume, ready for sign-in to be configured before others use it.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `docker run -p 3001:3001 --env-file .env -e EMBEDDED_POSTGRES=on -v openbot-data:/var/lib/postgresql ghcr.io/copilotkit/openbot:latest`. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Pin a release by replacing `latest` with a version tag such as `:v0.0.9` if you need a fixed build.",
  "Configure sign-in as described in the README's Sign-in section before anyone else can reach the deployment.",
  "Check that the app loads on port 3001 and that the database volume `openbot-data` exists.",
  "Run `scripts/stop.sh` on your local clone only when you need to stop local services, since it leaves volumes intact."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "For the OpenBot repository at <repo-path>, deploy the image ghcr.io/copilotkit/openbot:latest with the README's docker run command and the local .env file. Report whether the container answers on port 3001 and confirm that sign-in is configured before the URL is shared.",

 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "2 hours",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the example KEY_ENCRYPTION_KEY is public and fine only for local use, so generate your own with openssl before any shared deployment.",
