 "title": "Self-host the full Vicoa stack with Docker",
 "page_title": "How to self-host the full Vicoa stack with Docker with Vicoa",
 "summary": "Run the Vicoa backend, web app, and database on your own infrastructure using Docker.",
 "who": "A team or individual that wants to keep sessions and account data on its own servers instead of a hosted service.",
 "problem": "Teams that need control over where agent sessions and messages are stored have no hosted-only option they can accept.",
 "outcome": "The full stack runs on your own machine or server, reachable through the Vicoa web app and clients you configure.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/vicoa-ai/vicoa` and change into the `vicoa` folder. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Run `cp .env.example .env` and set passwords and public URLs in the `.env` file.",
  "Run `./backend/scripts/generate-jwt-keys.sh selfhost/keys` to create the signing keys.",
  "Run `docker compose -f docker-compose.selfhost.yml up -d` to start the stack.",
  "Follow SELF_HOSTING.md for the remaining configuration and checks."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the vicoa-ai/vicoa repo, self-host the Vicoa stack on <server-address> by following SELF_HOSTING.md. Confirm that the Docker containers started with `docker compose -f docker-compose.selfhost.yml ps` and that the web app loads at the URL you set. Report the running services and the URL.",

 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "2 hours",

  "At least one supported agent CLI installed and signed in on the machine that runs agents",
