On SELinux hosts (Fedora, RHEL), compose mounts the checkout with `:z` so the container may read it; Docker may relabel the checkout for container access, which can take a moment on a large checkout. Without that, the start fails with `Cannot find module '/app/scripts/docker-start.mjs'`.

The map routes compare the browser's `Origin` with the `Host` the server sees, so the proxy must pass the original `Host` and, when it terminates TLS, `X-Forwarded-Proto`. Caddy does both by default; for nginx add `proxy_set_header Host $http_host;`, `proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;` and `proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;`.

### Path 4 — GitHub Codespaces (cloud, no local install)
Codespaces requires a GitHub account. Overpass queries and OpenAI voice token
requests return HTTP 403 through its forwarded HTTPS URL, even with API keys
in `.env` and `GEV_ALLOWED_HOSTS` configured. Use a local setup for these features.
The codespace runs the dev server in a cloud workspace, so Node and the dependencies
never touch your machine. The globe still renders in your own browser, so it
needs the same graphics there as any other path. GitHub Free includes 120
core-hours a month with no card on file — about 60 hours on the default 2-core
machine. Org and Enterprise plans include no free quota; current terms and
quotas apply.
1. Fork this repository, then open **your fork** on GitHub.
2. Click the green **Code** button, the **Codespaces** tab, then **Create codespace on main**.
3. In the codespace terminal:
```bash
nvm install 24 && nvm use 24
npm ci
npm run doctor
GEV_ALLOWED_HOSTS="$CODESPACE_NAME-4173.$GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN" npm run dev
```
4. Open the **Ports** tab, find `4173`, and click the globe icon to open it in
the browser. The port is private by default, so the URL asks for your GitHub
login. Keep it private: a public port lets anyone use the app and the keys
in your `.env`.
`GEV_ALLOWED_HOSTS` there is required, not optional. The dev server answers only
the hostnames it trusts, and a forwarded port arrives on
`$CODESPACE_NAME-4173.$GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN`. Without it the
page is `Blocked request. This host is not allowed.` Leading-dot wildcards are
ignored on purpose, so pass that exact name.
⚠️ **A codespace is reachable from the internet.** Treat it as the
wider-publish case in [Sharing an instance](#-sharing-an-instance). Provider
Settings is unavailable on the forwarded URL. Never commit your workspace
`.env`. [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) has the threat model.

## 🎙️ Talk to It
The standalone app offers **OpenAI** and **Gemini** under **AI Provider** in Settings, one choice shared by voice and chat. OpenAI is the initial default; your choice is saved in this browser. To use Gemini, add `GEMINI_API_KEY` in Provider Settings or your local `.env` file, then select Gemini. `GEMINI_LIVE_MODEL` defaults to `gemini-3.8-live`. The permanent key stays on the local server, which issues a constrained, single-use session credential.
Changing provider ends the current conversation. If voice is on, the new provider starts with the same open-mic or push-to-talk mode; a held Space key is not carried over. Gemini uses the same map actions and captions, but has no OpenAI cost meter or MINI tier. When Gemini reports that its session has expired, start voice again for a new conversation. The AI Provider setting does not change the OpenAI-backed AI HUD summary.
Next to the mic, **CHAT** opens a typed chat with silent replies. It uses the selected provider and the same map actions, and never asks for the microphone. OpenAI chat needs an API key (`OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL`), so it is off while `GEV_PREFER_CODEX_OAUTH` pins OpenAI to ChatGPT OAuth; Gemini chat uses a separate text model (`GEMINI_CHAT_MODEL`). Chat and voice panels share the left panels' glass surface and sit above the dock or dock to the right.
> Voice can use an **OpenAI API key** or, on the same machine, an opt-in signed-in **ChatGPT/Codex OAuth** session. The API-key path remains the default. Selecting ChatGPT OAuth in Provider Settings reuses an existing local sign-in or starts the Codex browser sign-in flow and selects OAuth when it completes. The OpenAI key still drives the **AI HUD summary**: a terse, five-word intelligence-style readout of the current view that regenerates as you move.
The OAuth option is experimental. OpenAI documents ChatGPT plan usage for the [Responses API](https://developers.openai.com/siwc/token-sharing-open-source/models-and-inference); a supported third-party Realtime contract for reusing Codex tokens has not been confirmed. A successful token mint does not establish billing or support terms.

- **Sits on the real ground.** Entity heights are aligned to work with Google 3D tiles, so aircraft park on aprons and cameras stand on street corners instead of floating.
- **Caching and request budgets.** An OpenSky credit governor, a TomTom daily tile budget, and disk-cached TLEs reduce repeated requests. These controls do not replace provider quotas or billing controls.
- **Server-side credentials.** Every API that touches a private key (OpenAI, AISStream, OpenSky OAuth, camera frames) is brokered through a hardened server-side proxy with SSRF protection, response caps, and sanitized errors. The only keys the browser sees are Google Maps and Cesium ion (restrict both at the provider).
- **No framework.** Vanilla JavaScript, **CesiumJS**, and **Vite** — plus **Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles** for the planet and the **OpenAI Realtime API** for voice. Fast to read, fast to hack on.
- **A small stack.** **Vue 3** and **Pinia** for the interface, **CesiumJS** for the globe and **Vite** to build it — plus **Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles** for the planet and the **OpenAI Realtime API** for voice. Fast to read, fast to hack on.
