How to host the free model router in a Docker container with Bansos Router

Run the daemon in a container with a persistent data volume and a built-in healthcheck.

Short answer: Clone the Bansos Router repository and change into its folder; then build the image with docker build -t bansos-router; start the container with docker run -d --name bansos -p 17070:17070 -v bansos-data:/home/node/.bansos bansos-router. All steps.

Who it is forA developer or small team who wants one always-running router instead of a global npm install on each machine.

The problemInstalling and keeping the daemon running on every machine is tedious, and state can be lost when a process restarts.

The outcomeThe daemon runs in a container with state kept in a named volume, and harnesses point at the same endpoint.

What you need first

  • npm, to install the package globally
  • A terminal on Linux, macOS, or Windows
  • A coding harness you already use, such as OpenCode or Claude Code
  • Docker, only if you choose the container route

Steps

  1. Clone the Bansos Router repository and change into its folder. (inferred, check the README)
  2. Build the image with docker build -t bansos-router ..
  3. Start the container with docker run -d --name bansos -p 17070:17070 -v bansos-data:/home/node/.bansos bansos-router.
  4. Check the container logs with docker compose logs -f if you used compose, or read the container output otherwise.
  5. Point your harnesses at http://127.0.0.1:17070.

Prompt for your agent

Using the bansos-router repo, build the image with `docker build -t bansos-router .` and run it with the volume and port from the README. Expected output: a running container named bansos. Verify by opening `http://127.0.0.1:17070/healthz` and confirming the healthcheck responds.

Caveat. Inside the container the daemon binds to 0.0.0.0, so publish the port only on a network you trust.
