How to host a shared bot team on a VPS with HTTPS with Rakazo

Keep bots running on a server and connect from desktop, mobile, or browser clients.

Authorization notice. Rakazo is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Credentials. The sandbox provider API key and model keys stored in .env on a public server must be protected with server hardening.

Remote script. The installer is downloaded from the internet and run with bash, so review the script before running it on a server.

Who it is forA small team lead who wants bots and shared Team Computers to stay online without a laptop left running, and who can manage a server and a domain.

The problemBots on a personal laptop stop when the machine sleeps, so the team cannot count on them to answer or finish work.

The outcomeA Rakazo instance on a VPS behind HTTPS, reachable from the desktop app, mobile app, or a browser.

What you need first

  • Docker Engine and the Compose plugin
  • curl and OpenSSL
  • A model provider account or key, such as an OpenRouter API key or a supported provider connected during onboarding

Steps

  1. Run bash install-images.sh --prepare-only on the VPS.
  2. Edit .env and set SANDBOX_PROVIDER (for example boat, e2b, or daytona) with its API key, and set RAKAZO_HOST to your domain.
  3. Run bash install-images.sh.
  4. Put HTTPS in front of port 5173 using the Caddy setup in docs/self-host.md.
  5. In the desktop app, choose Existing instance and enter the https:// address.

Prompt for your agent

In the Rakazo repo at https://github.com/elie222/rakazo, follow the Run on a server section and docs/self-host.md to prepare a VPS for <your-domain>. Report the sandbox provider chosen and the public https:// address. Verify that the health check for the instance succeeds over HTTPS before reporting completion.

Caveat. The README says public servers must use HTTPS, and the self-hosting guide covers the Caddy setup and host hardening you need to add.
