No-Docker Setup
Full production-like backend without Docker: PostgreSQL + API + Worker.
When to Use
| Mode | Use Case |
|---|---|
just start-dev --no-watch |
Quick testing, UI work, in-memory (no persistence) |
| This skill | Durable workflows, database testing, persistence needed |
just start-all |
Full setup with Docker (easiest if Docker available) |
What It Does
- Sets up fresh PostgreSQL cluster at
/tmp/pgdata - Runs
just start-all --no-watch --no-docker --no-ui- API server auto-applies migrations on startup
- Starts API server (port 9000)
- Starts Worker (port 9001)
Quick Start
# Prerequisites: PostgreSQL 16+, jq, API key
sudo -E .claude/skills/no-docker-setup/scripts/start.sh

PostgreSQL 16+ -
apt-get install postgresql-16 -

OPENAI_API_KEYorANTHROPIC_API_KEY - Root access - For PostgreSQL cluster initialization
Architecture
PostgreSQL (port 5432) → API (port 9000) → Worker (port 9001)
↓ ↓ ↓
/tmp/pgdata HTTP + gRPC Durable workflows
