# Deploy and Host Command on Railway

Command is a self-hosted server for the Command planner app: notes, calendar, goals and delegation, served as a REST API for the iOS app and an MCP server for AI agents, all over a single SQLite database.

## About Hosting Command

This template runs the official `ghcr.io/legitimate-apps/command-server` image as one service with a persistent volume at `/data` (the SQLite database and self-generated server secrets live there) and a public HTTPS Railway domain. No configuration is required: press Deploy, wait for the service to turn green, then copy the service's `https://…up.railway.app` domain into the Command app.

## Common Use Cases

- Run your own private backend for the Command iOS / iPad / Mac app
- Give an AI agent (via MCP) access to your notes, goals and assignments
- Keep your planning data on infrastructure you control

## Dependencies for Command Hosting

- A Railway volume mounted at `/data` (included)
- Optional: an OpenRouter API key (`COMMAND_AI_API_KEY`) to enable the in-app assistant

### Deployment Dependencies
