Prepare a Linux VPS to run production containers under Coolify. Use when setting up a new server, auditing an existing one, or connecting a registry, firewall, proxy and monitoring before the first deploy.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

A production VPS exposes two ports to the world, runs every workload as a Coolify resource behind one proxy, builds nothing itself, and is observed. Establish those facts before any application is deployed, and verify them read-only before changing anything on a server that already serves traffic.

## Hard rules: never break these

- **The server never builds.** Images are built in CI and pulled from a registry. A build on the host competes with production for CPU and memory and hangs on registry installs.
- **Never publish container ports on the host.** Only the proxy listens on 80 and 443; everything else is reached through the Docker network. A `-p` or Coolify port mapping on an app is a firewall bypass.
- **Do not touch the firewall, fail2ban, sshd or the proxy config without the owner's explicit go.** A wrong rule locks everyone out; the owner runs those commands, you give them exact lines.
- **One SSH session, reused.** Port 22 is usually rate limited; open a ControlMaster connection once and multiplex every command through it (see Step 1).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/coolify-vps-baseline@sha256:fa3bfb522cea8135

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.5100bf0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
