First Durable Run¶

After the quickstart, the next step is to run the real backend path with infrastructure and streaming.

Start infrastructure¶

docker compose -f deployment/docker/docker-compose.yml up -d postgres redis

Start the backend¶

uv run start --reload

What this starts¶

FastAPI server
database session wiring
Redis-backed runtime services
model client wiring in app.state.*
SSE endpoints for streaming chat updates

Try a request¶

Use the frontend or call the backend directly.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"message": "Explain the ReAct loop in 3 bullet points"}'

What to look for¶

streamed text or tool events
database writes for threads and messages
logs from the FastAPI app and runtime path
