+# Local Development Setup
+
+Running poimen-memory locally for development.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. **Copy env template**:
+   ```bash
+   cp .env.example .env
+   ```
+
+2. **Edit `.env`** with your local endpoints:
+   ```bash
+   # Edit .env with your local/dev service URLs
+   # Example: LLM service on localhost:11434, OpenSearch on localhost:9200
+   ```
+
+3. **Run the service**:
+   ```bash
+   cargo run --release -- serve --port 8080
+   ```
+
+The application loads configuration from `.env` (via `dotenvy` or similar).
+
+## `.env` File
+
+**Location**: Project root (`.env`)
+**Status**: Gitignored - never committed
+**Template**: `.env.example` (included in repo, shows all available variables)
+
+### Key Variables
+
+```bash
+# Database
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/memory
+
+# LLM (point to your local LLM service)
+LLM_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions
+LLM_MODEL=qwen:7b
+
+# OpenSearch (local vector store)
+OPENSEARCH_HOST=localhost:9200
+
+# Auth (disabled for local dev)
+MEM_AUTH_MODE=none
+
+# API Key (test key for local dev)
+MEM_API_KEY=test-key
+```
+
+## Local Service Stack (Example)
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: OpenSearch
+docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -e OPENSEARCH_JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" \
+  opensearchproject/opensearch:latest
+
+# Terminal 2: Ollama (LLM)
+ollama serve
+
+# Terminal 3: poimen-memory
+cargo run --release -- serve --port 8080
+```
+
+## Production vs Local
+
+| Aspect | Production (K8s) | Local Dev |
+|--------|-----------------|-----------|
+| **Config** | `k8s/app/config.yaml` (SOPS-encrypted) | `.env` (gitignored) |
+| **Injection** | ConfigMap via `envFrom:` | dotenv via `dotenvy` crate |
+| **Services** | Cluster-internal DNS | localhost/127.0.0.1 |
+| **Auth** | JWT (Authentik) | None (disabled) |
+| **Commit?** | Yes (encrypted) | No (gitignored) |
+
+## Switching to Production Config
+
+To run against production services (not recommended locally):
+1. Edit `.env` with production URLs
+2. Set credentials appropriately
+3. Ensure network access to production services
+
+---
+
+See `.env.example` for all available environment variables.
