It takes four containers, a generated .env and the published prosopo/provider image — no fork, no source edits,
and no image dataset:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/prosopo/captcha && cd captcha && corepack enable
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile && pnpm run build:self-hosted
pnpm exec tsx ./dev/scripts/src/scripts/generateSelfHostedEnv.ts --host captcha.example.com
docker compose -f docker-compose.self-hosted.yml up -dEverything required is Apache-2.0 except the client-side detection library, which is used only by the frictionless
CAPTCHA type — pow and puzzle need nothing closed-source and no dataset. Contact us
if you need help.
