+# Databases
+
+OpenDevOps Agent supports three storage backends. Pick one per deployment — set
+`CHECKPOINT_BACKEND` in your `.env` and you're done.
+
+---
+
+## Quick reference
+
+| Backend    | Persistence | External service | Best for                          |
+|------------|-------------|-----------------|-----------------------------------|
+| `memory`   | None        | None            | CI, quick demos, local testing    |
+| `sqlite`   | Local file  | None            | Single-server, personal use       |
+| `postgres` | Database    | PostgreSQL 14+  | Production, teams, multi-instance |
+
+---
+
+## `memory` — zero config, no persistence
+
+```bash
+CHECKPOINT_BACKEND=memory
+```
+
+Everything lives in Python dicts for the life of the process. On restart, all
+sessions and history are gone. The LangGraph checkpointer uses `MemorySaver`.
+
+**When to use:** CI pipelines, smoke-testing, one-off demos.  
+**Dashboard analytics:** summary counts are live; charts and history are empty.
+
+---
+
+## `sqlite` — local file, zero dependencies
+
+```bash
+CHECKPOINT_BACKEND=sqlite
+SQLITE_PATH=./data/agent.db   # default, relative to CWD
+```
+
+Uses `aiosqlite` for the app tables and `langgraph-checkpoint-sqlite` for the
+LangGraph checkpointer. Both share the same `.db` file via separate connections
+with WAL mode enabled.
+
+The file and its parent directory are created automatically on first start.
+
+**When to use:** Single-server deployments, personal use, hobbyist setups where
+you want persistence without running a database.
+
+**Limitations:**
+- Single writer at a time (fine for one server process)
+- `LIKE` search is ASCII case-insensitive only (vs PostgreSQL's `ILIKE`)
+- History analytics use `json_extract()` (requires SQLite ≥ 3.38, released 2022)
+
+### Docker with SQLite
+
+Mount a host directory so the database survives container restarts:
+
+```yaml
+# docker-compose.yml
+services:
+  backend:
+    environment:
+      CHECKPOINT_BACKEND: sqlite
+      SQLITE_PATH: /data/agent.db
+    volumes:
+      - ./data:/data
+```
+
+---
+
+## `postgres` — production
+
+```bash
+CHECKPOINT_BACKEND=postgres
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/opendevops
+```
+
+Uses `psycopg3` + `AsyncConnectionPool` for the app tables and
+`langgraph-checkpoint-postgres` for the LangGraph checkpointer.
+The checkpointer schema is created automatically via `AsyncPostgresSaver.setup()`.
+
+**When to use:** Production deployments, team environments, when you need full
+dashboard analytics, multi-instance horizontal scaling.
+
+**Requirements:** PostgreSQL 14+ (uses `DISTINCT ON`, `FILTER (WHERE ...)`,
+`DATE_TRUNC`, `INTERVAL` arithmetic).
+
+### Schema setup
+
+SQLite and memory create their tables automatically. **PostgreSQL requires a
+one-time migration script:**
+
+```bash
+uv run python scripts/setup_db.py
+```
+
+This applies all files in `migrations/` in order and initialises the LangGraph
+checkpointer tables. Safe to re-run — all statements use `IF NOT EXISTS`. The
+LangGraph checkpoint tables (`checkpoints`, `checkpoint_blobs`, `checkpoint_writes`)
+are created automatically by the script; do not add them to `migrations/`.
+
+### Connection poolers (PgBouncer / Supabase)
+
+The pool is opened with `prepare_threshold=None` to disable psycopg3
+auto-prepared statements, which are incompatible with transaction-mode poolers.
+
+---
+
+## Migrating between backends
+
+There is no automatic migration tool. The backends are independent storage
+systems. If you start on `sqlite` and later move to `postgres`:
+
+1. Export your sessions with the API (`GET /sessions`) before switching.
+2. Change `CHECKPOINT_BACKEND=postgres` and provide `DATABASE_URL`.
+3. Historical sessions from SQLite are not carried over — start fresh.
+
+For most users, the history is short enough that starting fresh is acceptable.
+
+---
+
+## Adding a new backend
+
+1. Create `src/agent/db/my_backend.py` implementing `DatabaseBackend` (see `base.py`).
+2. Add a branch to `_create_backend()` in `src/agent/db/__init__.py`.
+3. Document it here.
