Run Paseo from an official Docker image (#1740)
* Add Docker images and agent Docker Mods Ship official container images that run the Paseo daemon headless. One Dockerfile parametrized by BASE_IMAGE covers Debian 12/13, Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 and Alpine; it bundles Node 22, the npm-published server + CLI, a vendored s6-overlay as PID 1, and a small Docker Mods loader. Agents are chosen at runtime via DOCKER_MODS (pipe-separated mod images). Each mod is a FROM scratch image carrying only an install hook that runs `npm install -g <agent-cli>`; the loader pulls the layers from the registry, extracts them, and runs the hook before the daemon starts, so any requested agent is on PATH when Paseo probes provider availability. - docker/base: Dockerfile, install scripts, s6 services, mods loader - docker/mods/*: claude-code, codex, copilot, opencode, pi - docker/docker-compose.example.yml + docker/README.md - .github/workflows/docker.yml: multi-arch (amd64/arm64) buildx matrix, publishes to ghcr.io/getpaseo on version tags - docs/docker.md + CLAUDE.md docs index row * feat(docker): print pairing QR and link on daemon startup Add an s6 oneshot service that waits for the daemon to listen, then runs `paseo daemon pair` so the pairing QR code and link surface in the container logs. Best-effort: never blocks boot, skips gracefully when relay is disabled. Opt out with PASEO_PAIRING_QR=0. * build(docker): add Arch image support * ci(docker): build Arch without Buildx * docs(docker): document paseo env contract * feat(docker): add opt-in sudo mode * docs(docker): link env references * fix(docker): create agent config dirs * fix(docker): default home to /home/paseo * docs(docker): document agent auth setup * docs(docker): document relay port setup * fix(docker): install Node from tarball * docs: add Docker quick start * docs(docker): remove legacy home example * docs(docker): set container hostname * fix(docker): prepare opencode storage * fix(docker): allow paseo login shell * fix docker opencode permissions * ci(docker): use Node 24 actions * fix(docker): install bzip2 runtime tools * fix(docker): update Pi mod package * fix(docker): quiet default daemon logs * fix(docker): split home from state Docker images now keep HOME at /home/paseo and store Paseo daemon state under /home/paseo/.paseo by default. Existing volumes can keep the old layout by setting PASEO_HOME=/home/paseo. * fix(docker): keep mods out of paseo home * ci(docker): skip alpine arm64 builds * fix(docker): address review findings * fix(docker): verify s6 overlay downloads * fix(docker): honor custom healthcheck port * fix(docker): fail on mod extraction errors * feat(docker): add official container image Ship a focused daemon image with the bundled web UI enabled and document extending it with agent CLIs. * ci(docker): publish images only on stable releases * fix(docker): check daemon health over HTTP --------- Co-authored-by: Herbrant <cdavide98carnemolla@gmail.com>

# Running Paseo in Docker
|
||||
|
||||
Paseo publishes a container image for running the daemon on a server, VM, NAS,
|
||||
or homelab box. The image also serves the bundled browser web UI, so one
|
||||
container gives you both the daemon API and a self-hosted UI.
|
||||
|
||||
The image source lives in [`docker/`](../docker/).
|
||||
|
||||
## How it works
|
||||
|
||||
The official image:
|
||||
|
||||
- installs `@getpaseo/server` and `@getpaseo/cli` from npm
|
||||
- runs the daemon as the non-root `paseo` user
|
||||
- listens on `0.0.0.0:6767` inside the container
|
||||
- enables the bundled daemon web UI with `PASEO_WEB_UI_ENABLED=true`
|
||||
- stores daemon state and agent credentials under `/home/paseo`
|
||||
- leaves agent CLIs out of the base image
|
||||
|
||||
Open the container's HTTP origin, for example `http://localhost:6767`, to load
|
||||
the web UI. The served app receives a same-origin connection hint and connects
|
||||
back to that daemon. Static UI files load without daemon auth; API and
|
||||
WebSocket requests still require `PASEO_PASSWORD` when one is configured.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run -d --name paseo \
|
||||
-p 6767:6767 \
|
||||
-e PASEO_PASSWORD=change-me \
|
||||
-v "$PWD/paseo-home:/home/paseo" \
|
||||
-v "$PWD:/workspace" \
|
||||
ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:latest
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then open:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
http://localhost:6767
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you set `PASEO_PASSWORD`, enter the same password when adding the direct
|
||||
daemon connection in the web UI or another Paseo client.
|
||||
|
||||
## Docker Compose
|
||||
|
||||
Use [`docker/docker-compose.example.yml`](../docker/docker-compose.example.yml):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp docker/docker-compose.example.yml docker-compose.yml
|
||||
$EDITOR docker-compose.yml
|
||||
docker compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Minimal example:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
services:
|
||||
paseo:
|
||||
image: ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:latest
|
||||
restart: unless-stopped
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- "6767:6767"
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
PASEO_PASSWORD: "change-me"
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./paseo-home:/home/paseo
|
||||
- ./workspace:/workspace
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Installing Agents
|
||||
|
||||
The base image does not preinstall Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Copilot, Pi, or
|
||||
other agent CLIs. That keeps the default image small and avoids coupling Paseo
|
||||
releases to third-party agent release cycles.
|
||||
|
||||
Create a child image for the agents you use:
|
||||
|
||||
```Dockerfile
|
||||
FROM ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:latest
|
||||
|
||||
USER root
|
||||
RUN npm install -g @openai/codex @anthropic-ai/claude-code opencode-ai
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Build it:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker build -f Dockerfile -t paseo-with-agents .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then use `image: paseo-with-agents` in Compose.
|
||||
|
||||
Leave the child image user as root. The base entrypoint uses root only for
|
||||
first-run directory setup, then drops the daemon and launched agents to the
|
||||
non-root `paseo` user.
|
||||
|
||||
An example child image is in
|
||||
[`docker/Dockerfile.agents.example`](../docker/Dockerfile.agents.example).
|
||||
|
||||
You can also mount credentials from the host or run agent login once inside the
|
||||
container:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker exec -it --user paseo paseo codex
|
||||
docker exec -it --user paseo paseo claude
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Agent credentials and config persist in `/home/paseo`, alongside daemon state.
|
||||
Provider environment variables such as `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`,
|
||||
`OPENAI_BASE_URL`, or `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` can be passed through `docker run -e`
|
||||
or `compose.environment`; Paseo passes them to launched agents.
|
||||
|
||||
## Volumes
|
||||
|
||||
| Mount | Purpose |
|
||||
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
||||
| `/home/paseo` | Paseo state under `.paseo` plus agent config such as `.codex`, `.claude` |
|
||||
| `/workspace` | Code that Paseo and launched agents can read and write |
|
||||
|
||||
The image defaults:
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Default |
|
||||
| -------------- | -------------------- |
|
||||
| `HOME` | `/home/paseo` |
|
||||
| `PASEO_HOME` | `/home/paseo/.paseo` |
|
||||
| `PASEO_LISTEN` | `0.0.0.0:6767` |
|
||||
|
||||
If you bind-mount host directories on Linux, make sure the container user can
|
||||
write them. The built-in `paseo` user has uid/gid `1000:1000`. For a different
|
||||
host uid/gid, either adjust ownership on the mounted directories or run the
|
||||
container with Docker's `--user` / Compose `user:` option.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reverse Proxies
|
||||
|
||||
When serving Paseo behind a reverse proxy, forward normal HTTP requests and
|
||||
WebSocket upgrades to the same daemon port.
|
||||
|
||||
Caddy example:
|
||||
|
||||
```caddy
|
||||
paseo.example.com {
|
||||
reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:6767
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Nginx example:
|
||||
|
||||
```nginx
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 443 ssl;
|
||||
server_name paseo.example.com;
|
||||
|
||||
location / {
|
||||
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:6767;
|
||||
proxy_http_version 1.1;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
|
||||
proxy_set_header Host $host;
|
||||
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you reach the daemon by DNS name, set `PASEO_HOSTNAMES` so host-header
|
||||
validation allows that name:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
PASEO_HOSTNAMES: "paseo.example.com,.lan"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
IPs and `localhost` are allowed by default.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
|
||||
- Set `PASEO_PASSWORD` for any published port or network-reachable deployment.
|
||||
- Prefer HTTPS at the reverse proxy for direct browser access.
|
||||
- Use the Paseo relay for untrusted networks or mobile access when you do not
|
||||
want to expose the daemon port directly.
|
||||
- The container is the isolation boundary for agents. Agents can read and write
|
||||
whatever you mount into `/workspace` and whatever credentials you place in
|
||||
`/home/paseo`.
|
||||
- The bundled web UI static files are public on the daemon origin. The daemon
|
||||
API and WebSocket remain protected by password auth when configured.
|
||||
|
||||
See [SECURITY.md](../SECURITY.md) for the daemon trust model.
|
||||
|
||||
## Building Locally
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker build -t paseo:local docker/base
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To bake a specific published npm version:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker build \
|
||||
--build-arg PASEO_VERSION=0.1.102 \
|
||||
-t paseo:0.1.102 \
|
||||
docker/base
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The Docker workflow builds the image on pull requests and on `main` as a
|
||||
non-publishing check. GHCR publishing follows the stable release cadence: only a
|
||||
stable `vX.Y.Z` tag push publishes `ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:X.Y.Z` and
|
||||
`ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:latest`. Beta tags and manual workflow runs build for
|
||||
validation only.
|
||||
|
||||
The published image is multi-arch for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
- **The web UI loads but cannot connect**: if `PASEO_PASSWORD` is set, add a
|
||||
direct connection with the same password.
|
||||
- **403 Host not allowed**: set `PASEO_HOSTNAMES` to the DNS names you use.
|
||||
- **Provider not available**: install that agent CLI in a child image or mount a
|
||||
runtime where the binary is on `PATH`.
|
||||
- **Permission errors in `/workspace`**: make the mounted directory writable by
|
||||
uid/gid `1000:1000`, or run the container as the host uid/gid.
|
||||
- **Logs**: inspect `docker logs paseo` or
|
||||
`/home/paseo/.paseo/daemon.log` inside the container.
