description: Run Foundation on your own infrastructure. What you bring, and where the instructions are.

You can run Foundation on your own infrastructure, and it does everything the
hosted version does. You bring the database and a place to run the
application; the repository brings the rest.

The repository's README has the steps: clone, configure, apply the schema,
run. It also covers what a production deployment needs and the two settings
to fix before the first agent connects: the product name and the identifier
agents store the connector's tools under.

Self-hosted workspaces run couriers and routines the same way hosted ones
do. Routines need the scheduler tick and the isolated runtime configured;
the README says how.
