Hanzo Chat Demo User

When running Hanzo Chat locally, a demo user is automatically created for quick access.

Demo User Credentials

• Email: [email protected]
• Password: demo1234
• Role: Admin

Quick Start

1. Start the Hanzo stack:

   docker compose up -d
   

2. Access Hanzo Chat:

   • Open your browser to http://localhost:3081
   • Log in with the demo credentials above

Manual Demo User Creation

If you need to manually create the demo user (e.g., after resetting the database):

./init-demo-user.sh

Or using the Makefile:

make -f Makefile.hanzo init-demo

Security Note

⚠️ This demo user is for local development only!

Never use these credentials in production. Always:

• Change default passwords
• Use proper authentication methods
• Disable demo users in production environments

Customizing the Demo User

To modify the demo user details, edit scripts/seed_demo_user.js and change:

• Name
• Email
• Password
• Role (USER or ADMIN)
• Avatar URL

After making changes, restart the stack or run the initialization script again.
