Common Commands
Start All Services
docker-compose up -d
Start Services by Function
# 3-Branch Detection only
docker-compose up -d heuristics-service semantic-service prompt-guard-api
# PII Detection only
docker-compose up -d presidio-pii-api language-detector
# Monitoring only
docker-compose up -d clickhouse grafana
# Web UI only
docker-compose up -d web-ui-backend web-ui-frontend caddy
# Workflow engine
docker-compose up -d n8n
View Logs
# All services
docker-compose logs -f
# Specific service
docker-compose logs -f heuristics-service
# Last 100 lines
docker-compose logs --tail=100 n8n
# Multiple services
docker-compose logs -f heuristics-service semantic-service prompt-guard-api
Restart Services
# All
docker-compose restart
# Specific
docker-compose restart heuristics-service
# 3-Branch services
docker-compose restart heuristics-service semantic-service prompt-guard-api
Stop and Remove
# Stop all
docker-compose down
# Stop and remove volumes (DESTRUCTIVE!)
docker-compose down -v
Rebuild After Changes
# Rebuild all
docker-compose up --build -d
# Rebuild specific
docker-compose up --build -d heuristics-service
# Rebuild with no cache
docker-compose build --no-cache heuristics-service
Service Health Checks
Check Running Containers
docker ps
# Should show 11 containers: vigil-*, heuristics-service, semantic-service, etc.
Test Service Endpoints
# Branch A - Heuristics
curl http://localhost:5005/health
# Branch B - Semantic
curl http://localhost:5006/health
# Branch C - LLM Guard
curl http://localhost:8000/health
# PII Detection
curl http://localhost:5001/health
# Language Detection
curl http://localhost:5002/health
# n8n
curl http://localhost:5678/healthz
# ClickHouse
curl http://localhost:8123/ping
# Grafana
curl -I http://localhost:3001
# Backend API
curl http://localhost:8787/api/files
# Proxy
curl -I http://localhost/ui/

Docker Network
Inspect Network
docker network inspect vigil-net
Create Network (if missing)
docker network create vigil-net
Test Inter-Service Connectivity
# From n8n to heuristics
docker exec vigil-n8n curl -s http://heuristics-service:5005/health
# From n8n to semantic
docker exec vigil-n8n curl -s http://semantic-service:5006/health
# From n8n to prompt-guard
docker exec vigil-n8n curl -s http://prompt-guard-api:8000/health
Volume Management
List Volumes
docker volume ls | grep vigil
Backup Volumes
# ClickHouse data
docker run --rm -v vigil_clickhouse_data:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar czf /backup/clickhouse-backup.tar.gz /data
# n8n data
docker run --rm -v vigil_n8n_data:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar czf /backup/n8n-backup.tar.gz /data
# Semantic embeddings
docker run --rm -v vigil_semantic_data:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar czf /backup/semantic-backup.tar.gz /data
Remove Volumes (DESTRUCTIVE!)
docker volume rm vigil_clickhouse_data
Troubleshooting
Port Already in Use
# Find process using port
lsof -i :5005
# Kill process (if needed)
kill -9 <PID>
Service Won't Start
# Check logs
docker-compose logs heuristics-service
# Check network
docker network inspect vigil-net
# Verify environment variables
docker-compose config
# Check dependencies
docker-compose ps
Container Crashes
# View last logs before crash
docker logs --tail=100 heuristics-service
# Check restart count
docker ps -a | grep vigil
# Inspect container
docker inspect heuristics-service
Network Issues
# Restart networking
docker-compose down
docker network rm vigil-net
docker network create vigil-net
docker-compose up -d
Branch Timeout Issues
# Check branch timing in ClickHouse
docker exec vigil-clickhouse clickhouse-client -q "
SELECT
avg(branch_a_timing_ms) as a_avg,
avg(branch_b_timing_ms) as b_avg,
avg(branch_c_timing_ms) as c_avg
FROM n8n_logs.events_processed
WHERE timestamp > now() - INTERVAL 1 HOUR
"
# Check service resource usage
docker stats heuristics-service semantic-service prompt-guard-api

Development vs Production
Development (individual services)
# Backend dev server
cd services/web-ui/backend && npm run dev
# Frontend dev server
cd services/web-ui/frontend && npm run dev
# Heuristics dev
cd services/heuristics-service && npm run dev
# Semantic dev
cd services/semantic-service && python app.py
Production (Docker)
# Build and start all
docker-compose up --build -d
# Verify all healthy
./scripts/status.sh
Monitoring Resources
Container Stats
docker stats
Disk Usage
docker system df
Prune Unused Resources
# Remove unused containers, images, networks
docker system prune
# Remove volumes too (CAREFUL!)
docker system prune -a --volumes
