Arche is a self-hosted AI workspace platform that spawns per-user OpenCode coding containers backed by a shared Knowledge Base. Requires the `arche-internal` external Docker network and `/opt/arche/{kb-content,kb-config,users}` directories on the host before deploy. Images are linux/amd64 by default; override `ARCHE_WEB_IMAGE` and `ARCHE_WORKSPACE_IMAGE` to the `-arm64` tag variants for ARM64 hosts.
