 "title": "Run a self-hosted capture API with Docker",
 "page_title": "How to run a self-hosted capture API with Docker with Aldus Palace",
 "summary": "Start the HTTP service in Docker so your own frontend or scripts can post sentences to one store.",
 "who": "A small team or developer who wants a single capture endpoint backed by one SQLite file in a volume.",
 "problem": "Each new client needs its own capture logic and storage, which duplicates work.",
 "outcome": "A running HTTP service that accepts a sentence and returns a captured record.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `cp .env.example .env && docker compose up --build`",
  "Change the bearer token in .env from the example value before exposing the port",
  "Run `curl -X POST localhost:8787/v1/inputs -H 'Authorization: Bearer dev-local-token' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{\"content\":\"Ship the onboarding page next week\",\"mode\":\"sync\"}'` (inferred, check the README)",
  "Check that the response includes the captured commitment",
  "Point your frontend at the same endpoint"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the repo heymi/aldus-palace, copy .env.example to .env, replace the bearer token, and start the service with docker compose up --build. Send a POST to /v1/inputs with a sentence of your choice. Expected output: a JSON response describing the captured record. Verify that the response reports a status and that a second request with a repeated sentence points to the first record.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says to run one instance per person, so a shared team deployment needs separate instances rather than one shared token.",
