- Secure: no one can connect to it except GoDoxy main server because of mTLS, plus connection is encrypted
- Fetch info from agent server, e.g. CPU usage, Memory usage, container list, container logs, etc... (to be ready for beszel and dockge like features in WebUI)

- GoDoxy main server must be running
1. Create a directory for agent server, cd into it
2. Copy `agent.compose.yml` into the directory
3. Modify `agent.compose.yml` to set `REGISTRATION_ALLOWED_HOSTS`
4. Run `docker-compose up -d` to start agent
5. Follow instructions on screen to run command on GoDoxy main server
6. Add config output to GoDoxy main server in `config.yml` under `providers.agents`
```yaml
providers:
agents:
- 12.34.5.6:8889
```
2. Navigate to **Metrics tab** in WebUI, click **Add agent**, fill in required infomation then click **Copy docker compose**
3. Paste the docker compose into the agent server then start it with `docker compose up -d`
