deploy-physics-agent-docker

To deploy the physics agent locally with Docker Compose, run the bundled stack from the repository root. This starts the physics-agent-service alongside the OVRTX GPU sidecar for local testing and validation.

Yes, running the OVRTX physics agent Docker stack requires an NVIDIA GPU. You must also install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit and Docker Compose v2.24+ for the GPU-enabled rendering sidecar to function.

The OVRTX GPU sidecar provides a rendering API for the physics-agent-service. It enables GPU-accelerated rendering during local testing and validation before integrating physics pipelines into CI/CD.

Configure VLM provider credentials for a Docker Compose physics deployment by creating a repo-root .env file. This secures your local stack and ensures repeatable deployments across testing environments.

No, the physics agent Docker stack targets GPU-enabled machines specifically. It requires an NVIDIA GPU and the NVIDIA Container Toolkit to execute the OVRTX rendering API for local testing.

The best way to manage start and stop operations for a local Docker physics agent is using Docker Compose commands. The stack includes clear health-check guidance to ensure reliable local testing on GPU-enabled machines.
