Getting Started

Start with the Local Stack#

Matruno is easiest to evaluate through the root Docker Compose stack. The stack starts PostgreSQL, PgBouncer, Redis, the OpenTelemetry collector, Temporal, the backend, the Temporal worker, the frontend, and the admin panel.

cp .env.example .env
cp .env.example backend/.env
docker compose up --build -d
docker compose ps

Then open http://localhost:3456 for the product UI and http://localhost:5678/docs for Swagger. See Local Development for hybrid commands, health checks, and worker startup.

Suggested rollout order#

1. Run the local stack and confirm /health and /health/aggregate respond from the backend.
2. Complete workspace setup at http://localhost:3456/setup.
3. Create or import one legal workflow definition.
4. Create the first matter, attach source documents or evidence if the workflow expects them, and start workflow execution.
5. Review tasks, documents, agent execution logs, and audit history from the matter detail view.

What success looks like#

The first successful path is small: one legal workspace, one admin user, one active legal workflow definition, one matter, one workflow run, one attorney review or task completion, and visible execution history. Avoid trying to prove every connector or automation path before the basic matter / evidence / legal workflow / review loop is clear.
