+# Open WebUI with Tailscale Sidecar Configuration
+
+This Docker Compose configuration sets up [Open WebUI](https://openwebui.com/) with Tailscale as a sidecar container to keep the app reachable over your Tailnet.
+
+## Open WebUI
+
+[Open WebUI](https://openwebui.com/) is a feature-rich, self-hosted AI platform that provides a ChatGPT-style interface for local and cloud-based AI models. It supports Ollama and any OpenAI-compatible API. Pairing it with Tailscale means your private AI interface is securely accessible from any of your devices without exposing it to the public internet.
+
+## Configuration Overview
+
+In this setup, the `tailscale-open-webui` service runs Tailscale, which manages secure networking for Open WebUI. The `open-webui` service utilizes the Tailscale network stack via Docker's `network_mode: service:` configuration. This keeps the app Tailnet-only unless you intentionally expose ports.
+
+## What to document for users
+
+- **Prerequisites**: Docker and Docker Compose installed. No special group membership, GPU, or devices required for CPU-only inference. A Tailscale account with an auth key from https://tailscale.com/admin/authkeys.
+- **Volumes**: Pre-create `./open-webui-data` before deploying to avoid Docker creating a root-owned directory: `mkdir -p ./open-webui-data ./config ./ts/state`
+- **MagicDNS/Serve**: Enable MagicDNS and HTTPS in your Tailscale admin console before deploying. The serve config proxies to port `8080` — this is hardcoded in the `configs` block and does not consume `.env` values. Uncomment `TS_ACCEPT_DNS=true` in `compose.yaml` if DNS resolution issues arise.
+- **Ollama**: Set `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` in `.env` to point at your Ollama instance. Options:
+  - Same Docker host: `http://host.docker.internal:11434`
+  - LAN machine: `http://<local-ip>:11434` (use the private IP of the machine running Ollama)
+  - Another Tailnet device: `http://100.x.x.x:11434`
+  - Leave blank to configure a different provider (e.g. OpenAI) via the UI after first launch.
+- **Ports**: The `0.0.0.0:${SERVICEPORT}:${SERVICEPORT}` mapping is commented out by default. Uncomment only if LAN access is required alongside Tailnet access.
+- **Gotchas**:
+  - Create your admin account immediately after first launch — Open WebUI is open to registration until the first user is created.
+  - Open WebUI requires WebSocket support — ensure nothing in your network path blocks WebSocket connections.
+  - After adding new models to Ollama, refresh the model list in Open WebUI via **Settings → Connections**.
+
+## Files to check
+
+Please check the following contents for validity as some variables need to be defined upfront.
+
+- `.env` // Main variables: `TS_AUTHKEY`, `SERVICE`, `IMAGE_URL`, `OLLAMA_BASE_URL`, `WEBUI_SECRET_KEY`
