Use the compose file shown above.
What the compose file check ran with (github.com/LinkStackOrg/docs/blob/9c26b88/docs/docker/setup.md#L64-L85)
This compose file is copied unchanged from the code block in https://github.com/LinkStackOrg/docs/blob/9c26b8817d9c4af55ada0aa5de8816bd4ba8a233/docs/docker/setup.md#L64-L85. The check ran on that block alone. The Docker setup guide shows this docker compose stack.

Gotchas and maintenance

Gotchas

Some images use the latest tag or no tag. Images without a pinned version: linkstack: linkstackorg/linkstack:latest. A later pull can get a different version. (github.com/LinkStackOrg/docs/blob/9c26b88/docs/docker/setup.md, checked 2026-10-22)
The compose file publishes host ports. Host ports: 80 (linkstack), 443 (linkstack). A port without a host address listens on all host network interfaces. (github.com/LinkStackOrg/docs/blob/9c26b88/docs/docker/setup.md, checked 2026-10-22)
