MERIDIAN_SIGNING_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32) docker compose up -d
The server listens on http://localhost:3000.
Set a fixed MERIDIAN_SIGNING_KEY. If unset, a random key is generated on startup — all existing tokens become invalid on restart.
To persist the key, add it to a .env file:
# .env
MERIDIAN_SIGNING_KEY=your_64_char_hex_string_here
docker compose up -d
